Watch The Tapes Lyrics - Sound Of Silver - Lcd Soundsystem

Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes 

i get all confused when you mix up the dates... 

woah! 

don't gimme the pretend you come for the weekend 

and you stay for the week 

you say that you hate it but that's how you made it 

just keep it oblique 

we're both high high high, high high on lemon sips 

we're all suh-suh-suh sucked-in-by parlour tricks 

oh the people deceive you the kids never leave 

cuz you make them at home 

you try to appease them and they show you the stick 

but still you pick up the phone 

but hey man, you can take it 

as long as they don't shove you out in the cold 

it's not getting better, no it's not getting better, man 

it's just getting old 

ah ooh! we do what we're programmed to do-- 

hey we do what we're told

i never remember to carry my book when i get on the bus 

you never forget it's your time to collect 

when they are making a fuss 

we're both high high high, high high on lemon sips 

we're all high high high, high high on wiggling hips 

ah ooh! you break off your plans for the weekend 

and ah oh! you can tell them the dates 

but that don't mean they're letting you go 

don't gimme the pretend you come for the weekend 

and you stay for the year 

avoid all the plans cuz we're making our day jobs 

into a steady career 

we're both high high high, high high on lemon sips 

we all claw claw claw, cli-climb-on to sinking ships 

and ah ooh! avoid all the cold sideways glances 

and ah ooh! celebrate! celebrate! celebrate! 

and then turn to stone

read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes 

you turn 25 and now you're all out of escapes 

c'mon 

hey the rock writer told me to tell you: 

"though you're great and you're brave 

you still lack that which makes you a star." 

read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes 

we all get a little drunk and then we act like apes 

ow!
