Listen Lyrics - Singles - Generation X

What's it like to play a part? 

What's it like to have a wooden heart? 

Every word you say is so rehearsed 

You think your clothes and actions control the universe 

Well listen, what you'd better do 

Well listen, gonna change your head 

Well listen, or there's nothing can do 

Listen to the ones who will change your world 

You're the face upon a playing card 

A colored painted, cold visage 

You're just a pawn of somebody, somewhere 

How it only trouble is, you're gonna get nowhere 

Well listen, what you'd better do 

Well listen, gonna change your head 

Well listen, or there's nothing can do 

Listen to the ones who will change your world 

What's it like to play a part? 

You got a wooden heart 

You're just a puppet on a string 

A nothing, no one, no style 

You just play a part 

You're just a pawn of someone, somewhere 

And you'll get nowhere 

Well, listen, what you'd better do 

Well, listen, gonna change your head 

Well, listen, or there's nothing can do 

Listen to the ones who will change your world 

Gonna change your world 

Gonna change your world
