From Ezra Furman’s first post-Harpoons album, Year of no Returning. The song deals with feelings of depression and hopelessness.
On her tumblr account, Ezra mentions that the song was originally called Cloud Nine and at that time was about the death of her grandfather
What the fuck do I do all day laying in bed
Caught in a web of desire
What the fuck can it mean all the noise in my head
Hanging my heart on a wire
Lost and found and lost again
Making daddy proud
Got my tongue all caught up in my throat
Trying to tell you I'm down
The 46th floor has a beautiful view
But I'm living down in the basement
And I got no reception so I can't call you
And you can't call me so we're even
Leaving town with nothing left
Making daddy proud
How can a man get anything done
Feeling this way? I'm down
Listening to records about high school and girls
Caught in a meaningless circle
Strangled to death by your ropy gold curls
Watching the sky turning purple
All the drugs didn't do me no good
I'm sick of non-stop anaesthetic
And I want the world to remember my name
But I know you'll probably forget it
