The Walkmen - We've Been Had

Well I’m a modern guy..
I don’t care much for the go-go or the retro image I see so often, telling me to keep trying..
maybe you’ll get here someday; keep up the working.. ok.
I close the book on them right there.

I see myself change as the days change over.
I hear the songs and the words don’t change.. I write them out of the book right there.

We’ve been had.. you say it’s over. Sometimes I’m just happy I’m older.
We’ve been had.. I know it’s over.
Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud.

See me age 19 with some dumb haircut from 1960, moving to New York City. Live with my friends there; we’re all taking the same steps.. they’re foolish now.

We’ve been had.. you say it’s over. Sometimes I’m just happy I’m older.
We’ve been had.. I know it’s over
Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud.
