The Strokes Reptilia

Reptilia

Letra:

He seemed impressed by the way you came in.

"Tell us a story I know you're not boring"

I was afraid that you would not insist.

"You sound so sleepy just take this, now leave me"

I said please don't slow me down

If I'm going too fast You're in a strange part of our town...

Yeah, the night's not over You're not trying hard enough,

Our lives are changing lanes You ran me off the road,

The wait is over I'm now taking over,

You're no longer laughing I'm not drowning fast enough.

Now every time that I look at myself

"I thought I told you this world is not for you"

The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair

"you sound so angry just calm down, you found me"

I said please don't slow me down

If I'm going too fast You're in a strange part of our town...

Yeah, the night's not over You're not trying hard enough,

Our lives are changing lanes You ran me off the road,

The wait is over I'm now taking over,

You're no longer laughing I'm not drowning fast enough.

Al final del video se ve como Casablancas escupe a la cámara.
