LCD Soundsystem You Wanted A Hit song lyrics

You wanted a hit but maybe we don't do hits

I try and try, it ends up feeling kind of wrong

You wanted it tough but is it ever tough enough?

No, nothing's ever tough enough until we hit the road

Yeah, you wanted it lush but honestly you must hush

No honestly you know too much so leave us, leave us on our own

And so you wanted a hit, well, this is how we do hits

You wanted the hit but that's not what we do

You wanted it real but can you tell me what's real?

There's lights and sounds and stories, music's just a part

Yeah, you wanted the truth and then you said you want proof

I guess you're used to liars saying what they want

And we won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

'Til you take us home

No, we won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

We can't be your babies

'Til you take us home

Yeah, you wanted it smart but honestly I'm not smart

No, honestly we're never smart, we fake it, fake it all the time

Yeah, you wanted the time but maybe I can't do time

Oh, we both know that's an awful line but it doesn't make it wrong

You wanted it right, no out of mind and out of sight

No dirty bus and early flight, no seven days and forty nights

Yeah, you wanted a hit but tell me where's the appointment?

You wanted the hit but that's not what we do

And we won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

'Til you take us home

No, we won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

We can't be your babies

'Til you take us home

And we won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

'Til you take us home

No, we won't be your babies anymore

We won't be your babies anymore

We can't be your babies

'Til you take us home
