Crossed Wires - Superchunk

I went out, felt the sun on my face

Then a tug on my leg, and now I’m back in the cave

There’s a moment of peace that I just can’t recreate

I need sleep but my brain won’t get tired

I smell like smoke from electrical fires

Don’t touch me, I’ve got crossed wires

Keep your fingers free from these crossed wires

Crossed wires

A day like this, we should be out on the road

Sky so clear and the air so cold

There’s blankets in the back

Bundle up my little urchin

Cause we never got the heat working

No, we never got the heat working

You don’t touch me cause I’ve got crossed wires

Keep your fingers free from me Crossed wires

Collecting the note you slipped under the door

I go blank when I try to remember what we were good for

I’m cracked and I’m cross and it’s no way to be Let’s just get lost

Maybe it’ll come back to me, back to me Now you can’t touch me I’ve got crossed wires

Keep your fingers free from these crossed wires

I smell like smoke from electrical fires

Oh I’ve got crossed wires

Crossed wires

Yeah, yeah

Crossed wires
