The Strokes
"Threat of Joy"
.
Okay .
I see how it is now .
You don't have time to play with me anymore .
That’s how it goes, I guess .
Fuck the rest .
Be right there, honey! .
I’m gonna take my time to say .
Take my time today .
I’m gonna take what comes my way .
Take what they give me .
Yeah, I want my money now .
But he is not around .
You better hold my money safe .
What's your emergency? .
And for the first time in my life .
I’m gonna get myself right .
Just get into trouble .
Be there on the double .
Place your bets this time .
Just has to let it ride .
I tr-I tried to take a roll .
But the dice are on parole .
I won't look down your dress .
I bet you bend down as a test .
I cannot wait to chase it all .
Yeah, I saw it in my crystal ball .
Friday night is shining like .
The secret for a spy .
I got a better idea .
I'll bet you on the side .
When I get up in your face .
You know it’s no surprise .
Ah baby, why's it so hard to read .
The sentence in my eyes? .
And for the fourth time .
Chains on your legs .
I spent a while .
Then decided on you .
My baby doll .
You ignored your life .
We’ll do it together .
I’ll be there whenever .
Oh, you check them in the grave .
And said: Thumbs up, they’re okay .
I’m going to watch the tidal wave .
It’s hard to chase away .
Ooh, Ooh .
(Got to chase away) .
(Hard to chase away) .
(It’s hard to chase away) .
