Lyrics

You'll be goin' out with radio
Goin' out with disco
Goin' out like bacchanal

I'll be goin' out with telephone
Goin' out alone
To the radar zone

It's all just inadvertent imitation, and I don't mean mine
It's all across this nation
If it's just inadvertent simulation, a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world fakin' it?

I'll be playing with my magazine
Usin' up my listerine
Like ovaltine

And you'll be dippin' in your battleship
For the latest tip
For the latest drain

It's all just inadvertent imitation, and I don't mean mine
It's all across this nation
If it's just inadvertent simulation, a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world fakin' it?

It's all just inadvertent imitation, a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world fakin' it?
What's got the whole world fakin' (4x)
What's got the whole world fakin' it, yeah
