The Strokes Lyrics for Song: Barely Legal
 Lyrics for Album: Is This It [2001]
 
 
 
 33128>I didn't take no shortcuts
 
 I spent the money that I saved up
 
 Oh, my ol Momma's running out of luck
 
 Like my sister don't give a fuck
 
 
 
 I wanna steal your innocence
 
 To me my life it dont make sense
 
 Those strange manners, oh I love 'em so
 
 why wont you wear your new trench coat
 
 
 
 I shoulda worked much harder
 
 I shoulda just not bothered
 
 I never show up on weekdays
 
 That's something that I learned yesterday
 
 
 
 Drive you to work; you will be on time
 
 These little problems they're not yours and mine,
 
 Come on and listen to what I say
 
 I've got some secrets that'll make you stay
 
 I just want to turn you down
 
 I just want to turn you around
 
 Oh, you ain't never had nothing I want, but...
 
 I want it all
 
 I just can't figure out...
 
 Nothin'
 
 
 
 And all together it went well
 
 we made pretend we were best friends
 
 Then she said 'oh you're a freak'
 
 They ordered me to make mistakes
 
 Together again, like the beginning
 
 it all works some how in the end
 
 the things we did, the things you hide
 
 But for the record it's between you and i
 
 
 
 I didnt take no short cuts
 
 I spent the money that i saved up
 
 oh,momma running out of luck
 
 like my sister dont give a fuck
 
 I wanna steal your innocence
 
 To me my life, it just don't make any sense
 
 Oh, those strange manners I love 'em so
 
 Why won't you wear your new trenchcoat?
 
 I just want to misbehave
 
 I just want to be your slave
 
 You ain't never had nothing I wanted, but...
 
 I want it all
 
 I just can't figure out...
 
 Nothin'
 
 
 
 And all together it went well
 
 we made pretend we were best friends
 
 Then she said 'oh i can wait'
 
 they ordered me to make mistakes
 
 Together again, like the beginning
 
 it all works some how in the end
 
 the things we did, the things you hide
 
 But for the record it's between you and i
