Echo & the Bunnymen

Echo & the Bunnymen are an English post-punk band, formed in Liverpool in 1978. The original line-up consisted of vocalist Ian McCulloch, guitarist Will Sergeant and bass player Les Pattinson, supplemented by a drum machine. By 1980, Pete de Freitas joined as the band's drummer, and their debut album, Crocodiles, met with critical acclaim and made the UK Top 20.

Smack in the middle of today
 Got to learn new words
 Merely got to simply say
 I think we all misheard
 Cracked in the middle of me
 Have to find my heart
 Smiling equates with happy
 But I know they're miles apart
 Just like my lower heaven
 You know so well my higher hell
 When confronted by
 Continuing the course
 Will you open up
 Or do I have to force
 The words right out
 Of your stubborn mouth?
 Stunted of course,
 Guilty in their growth
 Just like my lower heaven
 You know so well my higher hell
 Crashed through the floor today
 I couldn't find my legs
 Suppose you live and learn
 Learn it again and again
 Smack in the middle of today
 Got to find new words
 Merely got to simply say
 I think we all misheard
 Just like my lower heaven
 You know so well my higher hell
 (when confronted by continuing the course)
 (will you open up or do I have to force)
 (the words right out)
 (of your stubborn mouth)
 (stunted of course)
 (guilty in their growth)
