Lyrics

0:30I'm Feelin rough I'm Feelin raw I'm in the prime of my life
0:39Let's make some music make some money find some models for wives
0:49I'll move to Paris shoot some heroin and f**k with the stars
0:58You man the island and the coc*ine and the elegant cars
1:07This is our decision to live fast and die young
1:12We've got the vision now let's have some fun
1:26Yeah it's overwhelming but what else can we do
1:31Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute
1:46Forget about our mothers and our friends
1:53We were fated to pretend
2:15I'll miss the playgrounds and the animals and digging up worms
2:24I'll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world
2:33I'll miss my sister miss my father miss my dog and my home
2:42Yeah I'll miss the boredom and the freedom and the time spent alone
2:52But there is really nothing nothing we can do
2:57Love must be forgotten Life can always start up anew
3:11The models will have children we'll get a divorce
3:16We'll find some more models Everything must run its course
3:30We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
3:37We were fated to pretend
3:58Yeah yeah yeah
I'm Feelin rough I'm Feelin raw I'm in the prime of my life
Let's make some music make some money find some models for wives
I'll move to Paris  shoot some heroin and f**k with the stars
You man the island and the coc*ine and the elegant cars
This is our decision to live fast and die young
We've got the vision  now let's have some fun
Yeah it's overwhelming  but what else can we do
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute
Forget about our mothers and our friends
We were fated to pretend
I'll miss the playgrounds and the animals and digging up worms
I'll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world
I'll miss my sister  miss my father  miss my dog and my home
Yeah I'll miss the boredom and the freedom and the time spent alone
But there is really nothing  nothing we can do
Love must be forgotten  Life can always start up anew
The models will have children  we'll get a divorce
We'll find some more models  Everything must run its course
We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
We were fated to pretend
Yeah yeah yeah
