[Verse 1]
You hate, you scream, you swear
And still you never reach 'em
You curse, you try to scare
But you can never teach 'em
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You know they're going to get you
You try to break away
But they will never let you
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine (You're like a goldfish in a bowl)
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine (They have your mind, they'll take your soul)
[Verse 3]
You come, you stay, you go
It really doesn't matter
You've done it all before
By now they know the pattern
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine (You're like a goldfish in a bowl)
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine (They have your mind, they'll take your soul)
[Post-Chorus]
Nowhere to go
You know they're gonna get you
Nowhere to go
You know they'll never let you
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine (You're like a goldfish in a bowl)
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine (They have your mind, they'll take your soul)
[Outro]
Nowhere to go
You know they're gonna get you
Nowhere to go
You know they'll never let you
Nowhere to go
You know they're gonna get you
Nowhere to go
