Misanthrope - Irrévérencieux lyrics

Hit the town, still dressing down

Looking for some action

Mr. Jagger said it best

He knows you never get... no satisfaction

But Mr. Dylan knows

That everyone is more or less... a rolling stone

And Mr. Lennon, so quiet, knows better

...or so I've been told

That says it all, doesn't it?

We always want what we never get

Well listen dear, my friend

I can't continue to pretend that it's alright

'Cause that ain't right

That ain't right

I hear you're gonna make it big, rake it in

With your master plan

Mr. Hendrix understood

Those are only castles made of sand

Mr. Wilson took some pills

...and I don't blame him

It's hard to be alive

...Mr. Page, how he played

Mr. Drake stayed up late

...and made me cry

That says it all, doesn't it?

We always want what we never get

Well listen hear, my friend

I can't continue to pretend that it's alright

They've said it all havne't they?

But what I want, what I want to say

Is listen dear my friend

I can't continue to pretend that it's alright

No matter what we get

We never find our happiness

Ain't that a crime?

Maybe that's why I have been told

Since I was six years old to compromise

But that ain't right...

That ain't right
