Am/C
Everybody's singing the same song
Am7
It goes "tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight"
Am/C Am7
I never realized these artists thought so much about dying
Am/C
But truth be told we all have the same end
Am7
Could make you cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Am/C
But I'm telling you
Am7
This is the best news you're getting all week
Am/C
Oh sure it's ruling the airwaves
Am7
What remains of the airwaves
Am/C Am7
And we're frankly thankful for the market psychology you're hipping us to
Am/C
And all the hits are saying the same thing
Am7
There's only tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Am/C
And life is finite
Am7
But shit, it feels like forever
It feels like forever
Am/C
Oh is everybody feeling the same stuff?
Am7
We're all wild
Except for you
Am/C
And you know who you are
Am7
This is a love song
Am/C
And you're getting older
Am7
I promise you this; you're getting older
Am/C
And there's improvements unless
Am7
You're such a winner
Am/C
That the future's a nightmare
And there's nothing I can do
Am7
Nothing anyone can do about this
Am/C
And oh, I'm offering you a chance to get even
Am7
But oh, you know very well the dialect of negation
Am/C
Sure enemies haunt you with spit and derision
Am7
But friends are the ones who can put you in an exile
But that's not right
Am/C
And you're too sharp to be used
Am7
Or you're too shocked from being used
Am/C
By these bullying children of the fabulous
Am7
Raffling off limited edition shoes
Am/C
And what's it you do again?
Am7
Oh I'm a reminder
Am/C
The hobbled veteran of the disk shop inquisition
Am7
Set to parry the cocksure of men's sick filth
Am/C
With my own late era middle-aged ramblings
Am7
Every lover favors the same things
Am/C
It's all "touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me tonight"
Am 7
We maybe realize what it is we need before we die
Am/C
And luck is always better than skill at things
Am7
We're flying blind
Am/C
Oh good gracious
Am7
I sound like my mom
Am/C
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
Am7
By versions of selves that we thought were the best ones
'Till 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
Am/C
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
They're used and abused of the once so dear listener
Am7
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
Am/C
But that's all lies
Am7
That's all lies
