I'll Try Anything Once - The Strokes



Ten decisions shape your life,
You'll be aware of 5 about,
7 ways to go through school,
Either you're noticed or left out,
7 ways to get ahead,
7 reasons to drop round,

When i said ' I can see me in your eyes',
You said 'I can see you in my bed',
That's not just friendship that's romance too,
You like music we can dance to,

Sit me down,
Shut me up,
I'll calm down,
And I'll get along with you,

There is a time when we all fail,
Some people take it pretty well,
Some take it all out on themselves,
Some they just take it out on friends,
Oh everybody plays the game,
And if you don't you're called insane,

Don't don't don't don't it's not safe no more,
I've got to see you one more time,
Soon you were born,
In 1984,

Sit me down,
Shut me up,
I'll calm down,
and I'll get along with you,

Everybody was well dressed,
And everybody was a mess,
6 things without fail you must do,
So that your woman loves just you,
Oh all the girls played mental games,
And all the guys were dressed the same,

Why not try it all,
If you only remember it once,
Oooh ooooooh,

Sit me down,
Shut me up,
I'll calm down,
and I'll get along with you,

(Okay one more time)

I can't stop listening to this song at this hour. This song is a poem. The music is just a catalyst, like a paper page, delivering lyrical goodness to your dome. I want to never slow down. I want to run away forever. I want to do what I love. And I want to get paid. I just want to make you happy. I just want to make me happy. I just want to write songs and play in front of hundreds of anonymous people. Sometimes this earth is frustrating. "Follow your dreams" is such shyt. But I won't stop dreaming. If any of yall wanna come with me, you're forever welcome to join.

Why not try it all,
If you only remember it once,
Oooh ooooooh.

Enjoy and dream easy.

Sean

There is a time when we all fail,

Some take it all out on themselves,
Some they just take it out on friends,
Oh everybody plays the game,
And if you don't you're called insane...
