About This Track

‘Mouse Trap’ by Ride is a 1992 alternative track from the album ‘Going Blank Again’. The lyrics cast a restless chase, with someone running away while others feel lost for words, then questioning whether what they wanted has brought satisfaction. “tricky little dreams” sits amid images of tricky scenes, and the writing keeps rotating attention back, ending in a return to the other person. The perspective feels caught in a dizzying loop, the earth spinning as the mind reels, before the song turns back again.

"Mouse Trap" is a track by Ride, from the album Going Blank Again, released 9th March 1992. The track is 5:15 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 1 article about Ride.

Lyrics

Mouse Trap

Running away
You're lost for words again
Now you've got all what you wanted
Are you really satisfied?
Tricky scenes
Tricky little dreams
The earth spins and my head spins me
Back round to you
