| 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 |
