Drag Queen Lyrics - Future Present Past Ep - Strokes

[Verse 1] 

80's people dancing, oooh 

Always get it right 

I'd listen but I can't tonight 

I can't tonight, I can't tonight 

Well there's something that you do to get it right 

End up reviled for it 

And that's the thanks I get 

 

[Chorus] 

I don't understand 

Your fucked up system, this sinister city 

Try to sell the water 

Try to sell the air 

Try to sell your daughter 

Try to sell her hair 

Verse! 

 

[Guitar Solo] 

 

[Verse 2] 

'We all want to watch the fight, is it on Sunday?' 

Hide in a hole with a gun in your hand 

In front of 

Someone you want dead I guess 

Hiding in your suit 

 

[Verse 3] 

I did not know that 

Their bringing me back to my past 

I got my head in my hands 

I got my head in my— 

I got my head in my hands 

I got my head in my— 

I got my head — it's just something that you do to get it right 

End up reviled for it 

And that's the thanks I get 

 

[Chorus] 

Yeah, that's what you get 

Stepping into the system 

Profiting from war 

Fighting as the victim 

Always wanting more 

Trying to trick your brothers 

Get them to fight it for you 

 

[Bridge] 

I can not believe my eyes 

Darling I can tell you lies 

Coast to coast L.A. to Chicago 

I don't know geography all that well 

 

[Outro] 

Defying western logic 

Even if it shows you're right 

I guess that's a classic 

Been with us all along
