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
