|
Now do you get it! It's them, not you... |
|
So don't feel so funny |
|
Live for risks, they don't... |
|
There's no fight in them, no spit and fire |
|
Nothing gets them angry |
|
Oh come on, let's go shake the world |
|
Be thrilled by the thought |
|
That it's wild out there |
|
Even if it's really not that great |
|
Getting married? Making babies? |
|
But you haven't been to Paris |
|
The object of the game is to leave town |
|
I want you to be so happy |
|
You will bug them with your presence |
|
They'll say you're wrong, you have no style |
|
I want you to be lean and hungry |
|
Slum geniuses kicking limos |
|
Walking by yourself down Razor Street |
|
I want you to know people who laugh too loud |
|
And have to get drunk to find the right words |
|
And can't sleep 'til the colors are just right |
|
I want you to talk back, be out of line, be peculiar If you don't know your plans, so what? |
|
You should show up at their parties |
|
Frankly state their music's lousy |
|
Their art is stupid, don't be cool |
|
Do mind bottled dressing |
|
Object to instant coffee |
|
And go to movies all alone |
|
look someone in the eyes and say you'll satisfy them, Though you both know the way love is, that's a lie |
|
I want to see your fists in their searchlights |
|
Hear danger from their radio |
|
Take every chance you can to get revenge |
|
No pain killers, take it straight with a twist of anxiety "Patience" means "never" |
|
Don't shake hands,don't smile a lot, not much "please" And "thank you" |
|
Believe in "no", insist on "why" |
|
Want false hopes, expect magic |
|
Put your life on the line for something |
|
Bet on dreams, again and again |
|
Make a country that's fat and smart |
|
That doesn't love to screw its own |
|
And gives, instead of sucks the world dry |
