Bright Young Thing Lyrics
I wander, wandering all around
This big place I live
She was scared to go outside
Where it once felt so nice to me
Picked up a smoke, then you drag a little
I wanna choke so you won't belittle
Everyone knows that she'll do it over
And over and over and over again
You're pretty, won't you come play with me?
This time I'll be nice
You can't trust what I say to you
I know they're all lies, do you?
And if you ever had to
I would be going strong
What in the world was happening?
Dear, can I be wrong?
Picked up a smoke, then you drag a little
I wanna choke so you won't belittle
Everyone knows that she'll do it over
And over and over and over again
I would be going strong
What in the world was happening?
Dear, can I be wrong?
I wanna choke so you won't belittle
Everyone knows that she'll do it over
And over and over and over again

'You're pretty Won't you come; play with me This time I'll be nice'
i agree. those lyrics are beyond perfect. such amazing lines, and so beautiful.
The end reminds me of Soma.
did no one else realize that it sounds exactly like it?
I absolutely love what Albert has done, he's showing that there's more to him than playing in The Strokes, but we all love him for that. This song is great, it's got a great drum beat, and it just sounds a beautiful form on quirky when all the instruments come together. Go Albert.
That comment made me sound as though I can't write in english. The last sentence SHOULD say: "... it's got a great drum beat, and it just sounds like a beautiful kind of quirky when all the instruments come together."
'You're pretty Won't you come; play with me This time I'll be nice'
These lyrics are perfect.
The lyrics printed here are actually to the song: "Call an Ambulance" "Bright Young Thing" is another song on the album. Perhaps the link is off or something.
Love the line:
You can't trust what I say to you I know they're all lies Do you
does it therefore imply a double negative, and he is lying about only telling lies?
no, isn't it itunes who screwed up again? "call an amublance" is the one with 'you were only wanting to be friends', track 7, the album cover says so right?
I just got to know albert h jr. because of this song playing on my friends ipod. It's really beautiful... i hope the rest of the album is as good!
ADORE this song. especially the instrumental part at the end! so happy and carefree
'so happy and carefree'
'so happy and carefree'
An excellent way of summing up Yours To Keep. This is such beautful music, the kind that gets stuck in your head, replaying over and over again...

i know i'm so late with this but i just have to say that i always replay the instrumentals at the end like 5 times. the acoustics and the cute piano just remind me of everything that makes life so simple and sweet. its too adorable
