[LCD Soundsystem - tonite lyrics]
Everybody's singing the same song
It goes "tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight"
I never realized these artists thought
So much about dying
But truth be told we all have the same end
Could make you cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
But, I'm telling you
This is the best news you're getting all week
Oh sure it's ruling the airwaves
Or what remains of the airwaves
And we're frankly thankful for the market
Psychology you're hipping us to
And all the hit's are saying the same thing
There's only tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
And life is finite
But shit, it feels like forever
It feels like forever
Oh is everybody feeling the same stuff?
We're all wild except for you
And you know who you are this is a love song
And you're getting older
I promise you this you're getting older
And there's improvements unless
You're such a winner
That the future's a nightmare
And there's nothing I can do
Nothing anyone can do about this
And oh, I'm offering you a chance to get even
But oh
You know very well the dialect of negation
Sure enemies haunt you with spit and derision
But friends are the ones who can
Put you in an exile but that's not right
And you're too sharp to be used
Or you're too shocked from being used
By these bullying children of the fabulous
Raffling off limited edition shoes
And what's it you do again?
Oh, I'm a reminder
The hobbled veteran of the
Disk shop inquisition
Set to parry the cocksure of mem-stick filth
With my own late era middle-aged ramblings
Every lover favors the same things
It's all "touch me, touch me, touch me
Touch me tonight"
We maybe realize what it is
We need before we die
And luck is always better
Than skill at things we're flying blind
Oh good gracious i sound like my mom
But out of the little rooms
And onto the streets
You've lost your internet and
We've lost our memory
We had a paper trail that led to our secrets
But embarrassing pictures have now
All been deleted
By versions of selves that we
Thought were the best ones
'Til versions of versions of others repeating
Come laughing at everything we
Thought was important
While still making mistakes that you
Thought you had learned from
And reasonable people know better than you
That cost in the long run but
They don't know the short game
And terrible people know better than you
The use and abuse of the
Wants of dear listener
So you will be badgered and
Taunted and told that
You're missing a party that
You'll never get over you hate the idea that
You're wasting your youth
That you stood in the background
Oh until you got older but that's all lies
That's all lies
It's gonna have to be good enough
I can't do this anymore, my brain won't work
It goes "tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight"
I never realized these artists thought
So much about dying
But truth be told we all have the same end
Could make you cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
But, I'm telling you
This is the best news you're getting all week
