Entrapment Lyrics - Singles - Naked Raygun

You appear stage left all searching for your plan of life 

Youth of course on your side as they play the drum and fife 

Tryin' to get you marching to the worn out song they preach 

About how things you hope for are so very out of reach 

Can't they even remember 

When they had hopes 

And dreams? 

Adolescence fled; the adolescents sang; while you -- you had no chance 

Then before you even knew your wife she got in line to be your first romance 

In the sunset of your best years you piled on the debt 

You think this can't be happening here -- not here, not now, not yet 

You're gonna regret this. 

It's your big fall... 

Well OK -- life's not what it used to be 

We're tryin' to become something that maybe wasn't meant to be 

We're now so totally up for grabs -- I hope someone's left to see 

Will the end justify the means? Well it beats the heck outta me 

In the next round 

What will we be? 

-- "Entrapment", Naked Raygun, _Understand?_
