Stereo We hear both sides We sympathize We live our lives in stereo The left and the right The dark and the light We wrestle with the balance We change our tone We leave our phone And tape record our absence In lovin' memory Stereo We're livin' it in stereo We fix it so our love is high fidelity Mix it so we never lose the melody We try to equalize our lives in stereo So on we go From side to side As we divide A single life in stereo The far and the wide We override The feedback from the others The unkind phrase We lock in phase We're only really listening to the stereo Stereo We're livin' it in stereo We tune it till we have a perfect parody Commune with such a fine-cut, crystal clarity It seems to symbolize Our lives in stereo Oo (la, la, la, la, la, la), yeah, yeah, yeah Oo (la, la, la, la, la, la), yeah, yeah, yeah Oo (la, la, la, la-a) Stereo Stereo We fix it so our love is high fidelity Mix it so we never lose the melody We try to equalize our lives in stereo Stereo Stereo We fix it so our love is high fidelity Mix it so we never lose the melody We try to equalize our lives in stereo
