MGMT - Time To Pretend
I'm Feelin rough I'm Feelin raw
I'm in the prime of my life.
Let's make some music make some money
find some models for wives.
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin
and fuck with the stars.
You man the island and the cocaine
and the elegant cars.
This is our decision
to live fast and die young.
We've got the vision,
now let's have some fun.
Yeah it's overwhelming,
but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up
for the morning commute?
Forget about our mothers and our friends.
We were fated to pretend.
to pretend.
We were fated to pretend.
to pretend.
I'll miss the playgrounds
and the animals and digging up worms.
I'll miss the comfort of my mother
and the weight of the world.
I'll miss my sister, miss my father,
miss my dog and my home.
Yeah I'll miss the boredom
and the freedom and the time spent alone.
But there is really nothing, nothing we can do.
Love must be forgotten.
Life can always start up a new.
The models will have children,
we'll get a divorce,
we'll find some more models,
Everything must run its course.
We'll choke on our vomit
and that will be the end.
We were fated to pretend.
to pretend.
We were fated to pretend.
to pretend.
yeah yeah yeah
