Thespian City |
And we started to act… |
Like fools we acted |
We acted like fools |
And didn’t we like it |
(We like it, yeah |
We like it) |
Everybody liked it |
Tell me — what’s up with all the groups |
around these days |
Lemme just say I think it’s such a shame |
How all the bands always play live |
and people pay |
To see these phonies on stage who only imitate, hey! |
Rock n' roll’s dead! |
It’s all in your head! |
Thespian City |
Thespian City |
Now all the real music lives underground |
It’s living on tape |
It’s lost &found |
And while everyone’s going downtown to escape |
I’m under headphones in my brain with a gun in my mouth |
that’s how you do it, do it clown! |
Thespian City |
(I'm a thespian) |
Thespian City |
Though I’m back in the and |
All people want |
Is people they know |
Talk about the people that you see in the show |
All the great writing’s made right at home |
All the best shit’s spared when you’re lone |
Photographs and headphones and microphones |
Hit the pipe once, ready to go |
Performers are dull |
just guys with guitars |
singers and drummers |
who wanna be stars |
pretending to rock cause they know what it means |
pretending to be |
thespian, thespian |
pretending to be me |
Thespian city |
