This Island Lyrics - This Island - Le Tigre

You must not love to hate 

You must not take the bait 

And learn to hit delete 

You'd say the same thing to me 

Rent's high 

And the war's on 

And it's last call 

Even your friends look worried 

My friends think you're smart 

We think you're super-fine 

But it's high time 

I mean it's high tide 

Aka a fine line, inside 

Stop smoking those cigarettes, baby 

Next time it's your turn to save me 

Splash some water on your little face 'cause: 

You're a mess, you're a mess, you're a mess! 

You must not roll your eyes 

You should not often lie 

How could you ever say 

That your friends won't be there 

It's a long walk on a cold night 

When you wanna fight 

Over some day-old drama 

You used to make us laugh 

We want the old you back 

'cause it's high time 

I mean it's high tide 

Aka a fine line, inside 

Stop smoking those cigarettes, baby 

Next time it's your turn to save me 

Splash some water on your little face 'cause 

You're a mess, you're a mess, you're a mess! 

This island where we live without a/c 

Is the city where we learn about painting 

It was the title of the mix-tape you gave me 

Not where we're from but the topic of daydreams 

Let's take a tour of the bathrooms you cried in 

For break-ups, bad lucks, shock of the lost twins 

The horizon's like a ship in flames tonight 

You say you just don't know 

If you can take this city 

Cos the rent's high 

And the war's on 

And it's last call 

Even your friends look worried 

My friends all think you're smart 

We think you're super-fine 

But it's high time 

I mean it's high tide 

Aka a fine line, inside 

Stop smoking those cigarettes, baby 

Next time it's your turn to save me 

Splash some water on your little face 'cause 

You're a mess, you're a mess, you're a mess!
