R.E.M. – What's The Frequency, Kenneth? Lyrics  Share

From R.E.M.'s album: Monster

"What?s the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed
I thought I?d pegged you an idiot?s dream
Tunnel vision from the outsider?s screen
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh

I?d studied your cartoons, radio, music, TV, movies, magazines
Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"
A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh

"What?s the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh

Butterfly decal, rear-view mirror, dogging the scene
You smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I couldn?t understand
You said that irony was the shackles of youth, uh-huh
I couldn?t understand
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I couldn?t understand
I never understood, don?t fuck with me, uh-huh
