Drove downtown in the rain
Nine-thirty on a Tuesday night
Just to check out the late-night record shop
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, call it insane

But when I´m surrounded I just can´t stop

It´s a matter of instinct, it´s a matter of conditioning
A matter of fact
You can call me Pavlov´s dog
Ring a bell and I´ll salivate
How´d you like that?
Dr. Landy tell me you´re not just a pedagogue
Because right now I´m

Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Well I´m
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did

So I´m lying here just staring at the ceiling tiles
And I´m thinking about
Oh, what to think about
Just listening and re-listening to Smiley Smile
And I´m wondering if this is some kind of creative drought
Because I´m

Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Well I´m
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did

And if you want to find me I´ll be out in the sandbox
Just wondering where the hell all the love has gone

I´m playing my guitar and building castles in the sun (whoa-oh)
And singing "Fun, Fun, Fun"

Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Well I´m
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did

I had a dream that I was three hundred pounds
And though I was very heavy
I floated ´til I couldn´t see the ground
I floated ´til I couldn´t see the ground (whoa-oh)
Somebody help me
I couldn´t see the ground
Somebody help me

I couldn´t see the ground
Somebody help me
Because I´m

Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Well I´m
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did

Drove downtown in the rain
Nine-thirty on a Tuesday night
Just to check out the late-night record shop
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, you can call it insane
But when I´m surrounded I just can´t stop
