Artist: Metric Album: Synthetica (2012) Title: Youth Without Youth
Lyrics Youth Without YouthHangman, we played Rubber soul with a razor blade Behind the church, hiding place It was a long joke till The punchline came Can you read my mind? Read my mind Follow along till the end of the song
Hangman, we played Double Dutch with a hand grenade Behind the church, hiding place Apathetic to the devil's face Wear the sheriff's badge Put your toys away They let us go, saying, "Let us pray" (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth)
Hangman, we played Hide and Seek on the fire escape Through the smoke we saw the flame It was a long wait Till the firetruck came On the count of three Jump with me On the count of three
1... 2... 1, 2, 3 Go
(Youth without youth) (Youth without youth)
Go, go, go, go Go
(Youth without youth) (Youth without youth)
Go, go, go, go
Hangman, we played Blind Man's Bluff with the Ninth Brigade Throw the brick through the windowpane Double Dutch till they stop the game Till the cops show up Handcuffed, stunned They let us go, but we lost one
Hangman, we played Blind Man's Bluff till they stop the game Youth without youth Born without time Youth without youth Can you read my mind?
(Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) My-my-my mind
My-my-my mind (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) My-my-my mind |
