THE STROKES lyrics : "The Ize Of The World"

I think I know what you mean but watch what you say
'cause they'll be try to knock you down in some way
Sometimes it feels like the world is falling asleep

How do you wake someone up from inside a dream?

Your mind would wander and searched for its place in the night

Your body followed this feeling like following light
Once that your music was born it followed you 'round
And then it gave your activities meaning and let you be loud


You're sad but you smile
It not in your eyes

Your eyeballs won't change
It's the muscles around your eyes


An egg to fertilize
A pulse to stabilize
A body to deodorize

A life to scrutinize
A child to criticize
Young adults to modernize

Citizens to terrorize
Generations to desensitize


You're dreams are sweet and obsessed
And your overworked
You're overtaken by visions of being overlooked

How disappointed would
D.(ead) I.(dealistic) D.(esperate) I.(nventor) P.(ioneer) P.(hilosophers)
Be to see such power in our hands all wasted on greed

Am I a prisoner to instincts?
Or do my thoughts just live
As free and detached

As boats to the dock?

Just like when music was born

And detached from your heart
Is your free time to free minds
Or for falling apart?


Night after night
You turn out the light

You don't fall asleep right away
"Are we... are we done?"


A desk to organize
A product to advertise
A market to monopolize

Movie stars you idolize
Leaders to scandalize
Enemies to neutralize

No time to apologize
Fury to tranquilize
Weapons to synchronize

Cities to vapor-i
