Lyrics + Structure
Intro and Verse:
we're lowering the standard
in a process selective
the formula is too thin
but it takes more than
one person
so everyone jump on
i'll miss you when you're
just like them
Pre-Chorus:
imitate and water down
selection breathes on
its own
before the crash i'll
write it out:
selection breathes on
its own
make them open the request
line and let selection kill the old
take back the radio
Verse:
i remember back then
thinking
easy comes but doesn't
stay, what comes easy never stays
but the politics need
means
and business never leaves
you better sing now
while you can
Pre-Chorus:
imitate and water down
selection breathes on
its own
til we crash i'll write
it out
selection breathes on
its own
make them open the request
line and let selection kill the old
take back the radio
Chorus:
sing while we can, while
we can
Pre-Chorus:
imitate and water down
selection breathes on
its own
til we crash i'll write
it out
selection breathes on
its own
make them open the request
line and let selection kill the old
turn off the radio
Outro:
but it takes more than
one person
so everyone jump on
i'll miss you when you're
just like them
