The Strokes Lyrics
"Gratisfaction"

Oh b-baby, don't you be so mad because I barely remember
As she tries to recognize me with the eyes she saw me with in December
As she stands I realize that it's actually not a good thing
And it's so tough because you're down to go out again and
have another adventure
All her friends in the alleyway shout back, she can't hear them

But you're never gonna get my love
We can only play in the sand
Get up in the morning and run
You'll be frustrated 'til the day that you're done

He got punched in the mouth for 'ticking his nose in
other people's business
No good solution though he's on the verge of some revolution
With tough luck it may take a thousand years but I think we could do it
Best friends fight but they never enjoy life as good as when they abuse it
He said the soldier is a necessity in light of all the failures of man

But you're never gonna get their love
We can only fight in the sand
You get tired when the days are too long
You get lonely when the days are gone

He could never mention it out here and now
Without quick tears in his eyes
Ooh

And you're never gonna get my love
We can only play in the sand
You get tired when the days are too long
You get lonely when the days are gone

Oh you're never gonna get this love
We can roll around in the dark
That's about as far as we go
Get up in the morning and run
