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 |
