The Strokes- The Adults Are Talking Lyrics

The Strokes- The Adults Are Talking Lyrics

They've been sayin', "You're sophisticated"
They're complainin', overeducated
You are saying all the words I'm dreaming
Say it after me
Say it after me
They will blame us, crucify and shame us
We can't help it if we are a problem
We are tryin' hard to get your attention
I'm climbin' up your wall
Climbin' up your wall
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same as you
You were waitin' for the elevator
You were sayin' all the words I'm dreaming
No more askin' questions or excuses
Information's here
Here and everywhere
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same way as you, and, but
I don't, I don't want anything
I know it's not, it's not your fault
I don't want anyone
Always I do, it's not for you
Ah
Ooh
Stockholders
Same shit, a different lie
I'll get it right sometime
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Hello?
Yeah, boy, here we go
And a-one, and a-two, and a-three
Here we go, friends
Hold on, I can't-
Maybe that's kooky situation
So, let's go back to the old key, old tempo, everything
Okay

3:54 is such a cool part with headphones on

[someone_here_]

If nostalgia was a sound, it would be this song ♡

[sierraunderhill]

Main character playlist b/c I'm bored. Put your favorite main character songs below this and we'll have a bomb playlist :)

“But then it don’t make sense when you’re trying hard to do the right thing but without recompense”
I felt this.

[Bobbystheboy]

That guitar tune after every verse just gets to my dancing feet. It's a sad song but a part of the song makes me want to dance. I guess that's life in general... dancing regardless of the melancholy feeling.

I can’t believe the first time I saw them was on SNL and they performed this song. I had no way of knowing Jules changed the lyrics until I listened to the studio version. I also didn’t know he always did that live, or that he’s been covering his eyes, making hand gestures, pulling on his jackets for 20 years onstage. I’ve learned so many things about The Strokes since I watched them that first time. They’re so talented and amazing and Jules is such an endearing front man.

[jojojojojojodesu]

When Julian sing the same as the guitar melodical pattern, i finally vibe.

[zz_]

My favourite song always plays on cult fm wen I'm doing missions

[anewhue]

The music and lyrics send shivers down my spine, every single time!

[tristanmoorehead]

They'll judge us and ruin us if we give in. Keep your eyes forward, beautiful.

[dogboi]

An actually good lyric video where text doesnt flash on screen after it's been said out, wonderfully done thank you

[lauramantis]

Messing up my whole life and those around me and celebrating it just now

[puppysoda]

Dude so cool when you hit a banger!

[SmelliSoggySocx]

One of my older sister’s showed me this song a couple days ago, I’m really glad she did. it sounds so good! 🫶😊

[summerweatherly]

i have a major crush on this guy that’s completely out of my league & he used this song on one of his stories so this reminds me of him so much and i really just wanna shoot my shot because he’s just so amazing ..

[thegetdown]

...this song and " isolation by The Impures " are whats keeping me going during these hard times, stay safe everyone out there please

[alaynaelliott]

I just failed a test, and somehow I'm calm right now. This music is a calming bop.
