Just Rock'N'Roll

Midtown

God I wish I could hate you for the rest of my...

You can never tell me I shouldn't walk away
It's foolish to assume that I'll be coming back another day And you were never right
and I was never wrong
Does truth lie in sincerity of another sullen song?

Cause you were right then
I should have been the one to release it
It's coming back to tease me
But I was just born
You're pride was too strong, well can you change it?
And are you willing to face it?
YEAH!

You can tell your story and coat it anyway,
but you will never change who you trying to play now
Your friends are falling out
They know you just don't care, they know you never did

Cause you were right then
I should have been the one to release it
It's coming back to tease me
But I was just born
You're pride was too strong, well can you change it?
And are you willing to face it?

Cause they say always the first one
is never as good as the next
Hey, it's just rock and roll
Even though you might think you lost it all
Cause the times, they are a changin
And who can predict what's next hey, you lost control
Even though you might have thought you had it all
and hey, hey, hey it's just rock and roll
And I'll never change
I love it just the same
I'll never change
Cause I love it just the same

God I wish I could hate you the rest of my life
God I wish I could hate you the rest of my life
God I wish I could hate you the rest of my life
God I wish I could hate you the for the rest of my..

God I wish I could hate you(god I wish I could hate you)
for the rest of my life(god I wish I could hate)
God I wish I could hate you(for the rest of my life)

(god I wish I could hate you)
Nothing would make me happier
(god I wish I could hate you)
Nothing would make me happier(for the rest of my life)

    song reminds me of my old girlfriend--never could quite tell what she was thinking about or if she was being sincere. then she dumped me for my worst enemy. and i hate her for the rest of my life.

    this is the first midtown song i ever heard. i heard it on the playing four-square cd (wicked cd. worth a listen) and i fucking, fell in love with it. this is one of my favorite songs of all time. cuz no matter how much i listen to it it still rocks. its so full of rage, but so melodic and happy.

Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
