Tokyo Police Club – Your English Is Good Lyrics 15 years ago
I had to look up the lyrics to this song -- I thought the opening verse was: "Oh, you MUST go vote..." (I'm thinking to myself, "Damn, right. Because if you dont' go vote, you can't grouse later on!") Well, that's how I ended up at this Web site; I wanted to know the lyrics to this song. I totally thought Tokyo Police Club wrote and sang a song about the hyperbole, rehtoric, and bullsnark election we had this last time around -- you KNOW the one -- anyway, you can't tell me this song doesn't have political undertones to it, and I LOVE it, LOVE it! Of course, I was singing along with my own lyrics...(grin) and that's allowed when I'm in my own vehicle driving down the street.

My own personal favorite mis-heard lyric: "Takin' care of Elizabeth every day", when they were really singing, "Takin' care of business every day"....sheesh. Imagine my surprise when I finally figured out 10 years down the road that I was singing the wrong lyrics to that song.

I had to correct a friend once on the lyrics to a song, Hot town, Summer in the City: "back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty". She's singing, "Back of my neck gettin' dark and pretty".....sheesh AGAIN! She told me I was wrong, but then had to apologize because she looked the lyrics up online and found out I had that one right.

Anyway, I don't usually post in forums, but I had to on this song. I'll have to check out some of this group's other music. (You can tell I'm not in my 20s, 30s, or even 40s, right...? (ha, I still enjoy the alt rock station!)
