Adding To The Noise lyrics

Song information

Artist: Switchfoot
Album: The Beautiful Let Down

Lyrics

What's it gonna take
To slow us down
To let the silence spin us around?
What's it gonna take
To drop this town?
We've been spinning at the speed of sound

Stepping out of those convenience stores
What could we want but more more more?
From the third world
To the corporate core
We are the symphony of modern humanity.{{{{{yeahh}}}}}

If we're adding to the noise
Turn off this song
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off your stereo, radio, video..

I don't know
What they're gonna think of next
Genetic enginers of the most high tech
A couple new ways
To fall in debt
I'm a nervous wreck but I'll bet
That that t.v. set
Tells us what we want{{{{{ed}}}}}} to hear
But none of these sound bites
Are coming in clear
From the third world to the corporate ear
We are the symphony of modern humanity{{{{{yeahh}}}}}}

{{{{{If we're adding to the noise
Turn off this song
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off your stereo, radio
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off this song
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off your stereo, radio (repeat stereo, radio 5 times)
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off this song
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off your stereo, radio

If we're adding to the noise
If we're adding to the noise
If we're adding to the noise
Turn off this song.}}}}}
