Hey, let's get right back to the basics |
|
Every movement made up was useless |
|
Same old shit with a brand new sound |
|
Write it off as progress, it's pointless |
|
Not sure who you were in the 80's |
|
Stole all your ideas from other cities |
|
Get it straight when you're upside down |
|
Things are looking stale, it's time to turn around |
|
I was sick of the feeling |
|
And sick of image and sound |
|
And getting far without leaving |
|
Thanks for letting me down |
|
Now I know that it's all been done before |
|
And will all be done again |
|
So pick up the trends, you dumb Americans |
|
Now I know that it's all been done before |
|
And will all be done again |
|
So pick up the trends |
|
Burn it down and rip out the pages |
|
The kids are all right through the ages |
|
Making sure that it works for now |
|
Cut your hair and paint your stupid faces |
|
Let's pretend that we can get together |
|
Yeah, yeah, let's enjoy one another |
|
Useless talking about that now |
|
Everybody still likes to **** around |
|
Taking too long to catch up |
|
Going back to the past |
|
And things are moving much farther |
|
To falling back on their ass |
|
Now I know that it's all been done before |
|
And will all be done again |
|
So pick up the trends, you dumb Americans |
|
Now I know that it's all been done before |
|
And will all be done again |
|
So pick up the trends |
|
New York City loves to mess around |
|
With the L.A. sound, the L.A. sound |
|
New York City loves to mess around |
|
With the L.A. sound, the L.A. sound |
|
Come on |
|
New York City loves to mess around |
|
With the L.A. sound, the L.A. sound |
|
New York City loves to mess around |
|
With the L.A. sound, oh yeah, the L.A. sound |
|
Now I know that it's all been done before |
|
And will all be done again |
|
So pick up the trends, you dumb Americans |
|
Now I know that it's all been done before |
|
And will all be done again |
|
So pick up the trends, oh, come on swim |
