Lyrics for Song: Entertain
Lyrics for Album: The Woods [2005]
So you want to be en- entertained
Please look away, don't look away
We're not here cause we want to entertain
Go away, don't go away
Reality is the new fiction, they say
Truth is truer these days, truth is man-made
If you're here cause you want to be entertained
Go away, please go away!
Wa-oh-oh!
If your art is done
Wa-oh-oh!
Johnny get your gun!
Wa-oh-oh!
Join the rank and file!
Wa-oh-oh!
On your TV dial.
You come around looking 1984
You're such a bore, 1984!
Nostalgia, well you're using it like a whore!
It's better than before, oh it's better than before!
You come around sounding 1972
You did nothing new, 1972!
Where is the fuck you?
Where's the black and blue? (X3)
Hey!
You look around they are lying to you!
They are lying, ha, they are lying!
Can't you see it is just a silly ruse?
They are lying, I am lying too!
All you want is entertainment,
Rip me open, it's so freeing, yeah!
Don't drag me down, I'm not falling down (X2)
1-2-3, if you wanna take a shot at me, well get in line, line
1-2-3, baby i've had all my shots and I'm fine
1-2-3, If you haven't had enough of me, well get in line, line
1-2-3, yeah you deserve it now, it's all right
1-2-3, you can drown in mediocrity, it feels sublime, sublime
1-2-3, yeah it sounds like someone pushed the rewind
1-2-3, yeah, give it to me easily, my feeble mind needs time
1-2-3, yeah, make it sweet and syrupy with rhyme
Don't drag me down, I'm not falling down (Repeat)
Wa-oh-oh!
The grip of fear
Wa-oh-oh!
Is already here
Wa-oh-oh!
The lines are drawn
Wa-oh-oh!
Whose side are you on?
