I Can't Win Lyrics - Room On Fire - Strokes

That was you up on the mountain 

All alone and all surrounded 

Walking on the ground you're breaking 

Laughing at the life you're wasting 

One, two tries won't do it 

You do it all your life and you never get through it 

Everything they had to say 

Had been erased in just one day 

Good try 

We don't like it 

Good try 

We won't take that shit 

Oh, I can't win 

Things in bars that people do 

When no one wants to talk to you 

Failing can be quite a breeze 

He told me that these girls were easy 

Happy that you said you'd mount me 

Felt unlucky when you found me 

Some nights come up empty handed 

Yes, I'll take it 

Wait now 

By the sidewalk 

Hold on 

Yes, I'll be right back 

Oh, I can't win 

Yeah, I 

Wait for something 

Cool it 

We won't take that shit 

Good try 

We don't like it 

Hold on 

Yes, I'll be right back
