Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One shot is never enough
I just wait for us to go in circles
A lifetime of giving my all for you
(Hostile, give me a break
Don't say it's in the bottle of air)
[Pre-Chorus]
And first he would tell me I'm his friend
Actually, no thanks, I'm okay
Then he would send weird looks my way
[Chorus]
I want new friends, but they don't want me
They're making plans while I watch TV
Thought it was you, but maybe it's me
I want new friends, but they don't want me
[Post-Chorus]
And the eighties song, yeah, how did it go?
When they said, "This is the beginning of the best years"
Even though, false, break
[Verse 2]
One shot is never enough
I just wait for this to go into circles
And the distance from my room, is anything so necessary?
I was thinking about that thing that you said last night, so boring
[Pre-Chorus]
And the eighties bands? Oh, where did they go?
Can we switch into the chorus right now?
[Chorus]
I want new friends, but they don't want me
They have some fun, but then they just leave
Is it just them? Or maybe all me?
Why, my new friends don't seem to want me
[Post-Chorus]
Hurts my case, but that's okay
It hurts my case, but that's okay
We're dancing on a moonbeam
On and on and on and on and on
[Bridge]
The deeper I get, the less that I know
That's the way that it go
The less that I know, the deeper I go
Juliet, I adore
The deeper I get, the less that I know
Diminishing returns
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
Oh, that's how it goes
All I want to say
On another song
On another day
On another song
On another day
On another song
On another break
One shot is never enough
I just wait for us to go in circles
A lifetime of giving my all for you
(Hostile, give me a break
Don't say it's in the bottle of air)
And first he would tell me I'm his friend
Actually, no thanks, I'm okay
Then he would send weird looks my way
I want new friends, but they don't want me
They're making plans while I watch TV
Thought it was you, but maybe it's me
I want new friends, but they don't want me
And the eighties song, yeah, how did it go?
When they said, "This is the beginning of the best years"
Even though, false, break
One shot is never enough
I just wait for this to go into circles
And the distance from my room, is anything so necessary?
I was thinking about that thing that you said last night, so boring
And the eighties bands? Oh, where did they go?
Can we switch into the chorus right now?
I want new friends, but they don't want me
They have some fun, but then they just leave
Is it just them? Or maybe all me?
Why, my new friends don't seem to want me
Hurts my case, but that's okay
It hurts my case, but that's okay
We're dancing on a moonbeam
On and on and on and on and on
The deeper I get, the less that I know
That's the way that it go
The less that I know, the deeper I go
Juliet, I adore
The deeper I get, the less that I know
Diminishing returns
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, that's how it goes
All I want to say
On another song
On another day
On another song
On another day
On another song
On another break

I think the meaning of this song is about Julian Casablancas' marriage coming to an end. " going in circles"....arguing with no end in sight. She (Juliet) gave up a large portion of her younger years to helping him with his career with The Strokes and his solo works and The Voidz and she perhaps felt underappreciated and longing to have friends and a life but couldn't because of him. "The beginning of the best years though".... they were married 15 years and entering into a new phase of adult life, but never got there due to ending their marriage. "It hurts my case, but that's okay"....perhaps there was infidelity on his part and maybe breaking sobriety which made him look even worse as things ended but he decided it was just a fact he must live with. "Juliet I adore".....he still loves her and always will, but realizes it's too late for them.
