[ti: Watch The Tapes]
[length: 03:55]
[00:01.55]Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes
[00:10.56]I get all confused when you mix up the dates…
[00:13.32]Woah!
[00:25.95]Don’t gimme the pretend you come for the weekend
[00:29.13]And you stay for the week
[00:31.92]You say that you hate it but that’s how you made it
[00:35.04]Just keep it oblique
[00:38.10]We’re both high high high, high high on lemon sips
[00:44.20]We’re all suh-suh-suh sucked-in-by parlour tricks
[00:50.91]Oh the people deceive you the kids never leave
[00:53.92]’Cause you make them at home
[00:56.73]You try to appease them and they show you the stick
[01:00.19]But still you pick up the phone
[01:03.18]But hey man, you can take it
[01:05.17]As long as they don’t shove you out in the cold
[01:09.35]It’s not getting better, no it’s not getting better, man
[01:13.01]It’s just getting old
[01:15.83]Ah ooh! we do what we’re programmed to do–
[01:21.84]Hey we do what we’re told
[01:25.86]I never remember to carry my book when i get on the bus
[01:34.79]You never forget it’s your time to collect
[01:37.68]When they are making a fuss
[01:41.10]We’re both high high high, high high on lemon sips
[01:46.79]We’re all high high high, high high on wiggling hips
[01:53.46]Ah ooh! you break off your plans for the weekend
[01:59.34]And ah oh! you can tell them the dates
[02:05.29]But that don’t mean they’re letting you go
[02:13.19]Don’t gimme the pretend you come for the weekend
[02:21.53]And you stay for the year
[02:24.90]Avoid all the plans cuz we’re making our day jobs
[02:28.26]Into a steady career
[02:31.29]We’re both high high high, high high on lemon sips
[02:37.47]We all claw claw claw, cli-climb-on to sinking ships
[02:43.79]And ah ooh! avoid all the cold sideways glances
[02:50.14]And ah ooh! celebrate! celebrate! celebrate!
[02:55.50]And then turn to stone
[02:57.31]Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes
[03:05.59]You turn 25 and now you’re all out of escapes
[03:09.11]C’mon
[03:12.82]Hey the rock writer told me to tell you:
[03:16.10]”Though you’re great and you’re brave
[03:19.73]You still lack that which makes you a star.”
[03:22.65]Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes
[03:44.00]We all get a little drunk and then we act like apes
[03:46.42]Ow!
