METRO BOULOT DODO

I used to hustle the sky,
get high on potential
'till the angels came for restitution.
'Twas guilty I pled
and got life on the treadmill,
just running from my own delusions
all day
and all night.
It's been a long time
since I've done anything for no reason,
avoiding long lines
and avoiding the rise of the sun...
But when the damage is done,
it's DONE.
you're always gonna be off to the left of the long run.
We need another big bang,
we need a word with the greys,
or win the lottery digging for gold on our own grave.
Yeah we can move to california
or kyoto,
kiss the winters goodbye,
but still we're gonna do the metro boulot dodo
'till the day that we die!
(all day, all night)
It's been a long trudge,
just skipping meals and skipping ads for verizon.
But heaven won't budge,
so I'm splattered across the horizon.
You're alive
for as long as you're prey.
Yeah it takes a
self-sacrificial kinda fetish to survive
'till we get another big bang and a word with the greys,
just sleepwalk to and fro
in the metro boulot dodo.
It's got a blue light stranglehold
on your metro boulot mojo.
Yeah just shit talk as you're told
in the metro boulot dodo.
We're open 24/7 to midnight.
Babe, you gotta just
(sleepwalk to and fro)
But I want the ontological shock
(blue light stranglehold)
Yeah I want the ontological hype
(shit talk as you're told)
Yeah I want the ontological shock
(24/7 to midnight)
We're only going off the grid
to get a photogenic Irish goodbye,
Cause we were born to do the metro boulot dodo 'till the day that we die.
I want the ontological shock.
I want the ontological shock!
Cause it's been a long time.
It's been a long time.
It's been a long time.

Every now and then you've gotta skip town,
you've gotta double down or get a face lift,
they're gonna come around until they catch your grift.
Every now and then you've gotta play dumb,
you've gotta bite your tongue or let it tenfold,
they're gonna come around until they catch your cold.
You can do anything you want if you do it with STYLE!
(we can't take our eyes off of you)
Noooooooo
I'm not in your industry no more.
(every now and then)
Every now and then you've gotta lipsync,
you've gotta over drink it for a season,
they're gonna love you for it 'till they know the reason.
Well who goes there? Who goes there?
Reveal yourself.
We all come from nowhere,
so cut yourself some slack.
You can have anything you want if you lead with a smile!
(we can't take our eyes off of you)
You can do anything you want if you do it with STYLE!
(we can't take our eyes off of you)
Well who goes there? Who goes there?
Reveal yourself.
We all come from nowhere,
so show yourself some love.
We can't take our eyes off of you.
We can't take our eyes off of you.
