Dignified And Old Lyrics - Sloan

(J. Richman/The Modern Lovers - The Modern Lovers, 1975) 

My telephone never rings 

She'd never call me 

I hate myself today 

But I can see through this bitterness and sadness 

And so I won't die 

Someday I think I'll be dignified and old 

Well my friends say that I deceive myself 

And that I contradict myself 

And I can't say if they're right 

But I'm not ashamed 

Oh I can take a challenge 

And so I won't die 

Someday I'll be dignified and old

And I say, hey kids 

(Hey kids) 

I said, hey kids 

(Hey kids) 

I say someday we'll be dignified and old 

That's right 

I said some day we'll be dignified 

(Hey kids, Hey kids) 

Someday we'll be dignified 

(Hey kids, Hey kids) 

Someday we could be dignified and old together 

Well now 

Look at the mountain 

My girl and I used to stand on the mountain 

And the sun shines, she's dead, and I cry 

But I can see through this death and the sadness 

And so I won't die now 

Someday I wanna be dignified and old 

Photos 

Well now, see the desert 

I sit all alone in the desert 

And no girl understands me 

But I can see through this bleakness and grey and sadness 

And well I won't die now 

Someday I'll be dignified and old 

I say, you, don't die now 

Someday we'll be dignified and old together
