Stalemate
Nada Surf
Letra

Stalemate, stalemate
When do i jump out of the cake
Stalemate, stalemate
When do we admit it's a fake
Stalemate, stale
When do i jump out of the cake

I'm the nervous watcher
And i watch
Time to turn it on, but i turn it off
70% of the time i watch
Useless and over the line
Stuck

Stale mate, jailbreak
When do we admit it's not safe
It's not safe in a jail
When do we admit it's not safe
It's not safe in a safe
When do we admit it's not safe

I'm the nervous watcher
And i watch
Time to turn it on, but i turn it off
70% of the time i watch
Useless and over the line
Stuck

Should have been a wreck
Might have been a wreck
I don't know how it could last,
I don't know why it doesn't crash
(2x)

Stalemate, stalemate
When do i jump out of the cake
Stalemate, stalemate
When do we admit it's a fake
Stalemate, stale mate, stale mate, steal...

Stalemate, stalemate
When do i jump out of the cake
