You hate, you scream, you swear

And still you never reach him

You curse, you try to scare

But you can never teach him

It's a dead end street

They tie your hands and tie your feet

And the street is narrow

A nowhere lane

A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine Elaine,

Elaine, Elaine You know they're gonna get you

You try to break away

But they will never let you

It's a dead end street

They tie your hands and tie your feet

And the street is narrow

A nowhere lane

A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine

You're like a goldfish in a bowl Elaine, Elaine, Elaine

They have your mind, they'll take your soul

You come, you stay, you go It really doesn't matter

You've done it all before By now they'll know the pattern

It's a dead end street They tie your hands and tie your feet

And the street is narrow A nowhere lane

A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine

You're like a goldfish in a bowl

Elaine, Elaine, Elaine They have your mind,

they'll take your soul Now that you're gone,

you know they're gonna get you

Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you

It's a dead end street They tie your hands and tie your feet

And the street is narrow A nowhere lane

A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine

You're like a goldfish in a bowl Elaine, Elaine, Elaine

They have your mind, they'll take your soul

Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you

Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you
