"Little Guy From The Suburbs" lyrics
"Little Guy From The Suburbs"
I'm just a little guy from the suburbs
Who learned to kill before the others
Romantic activist, I'm the joker
I say, "Vive le Québec libre"
But if you hear this, no, when you hear this
You'll know I didn't, I didn't make it like I hoped we would
I didn't make it like I hoped we would
I didn't make it like I hoped we would
But you know, you know, yes, you know
No heroes
Just those who care more for their legend than their life
There are no heroes in this life
I tried, yes, I tried, with a shy girl
To live respectably, but decided
Fake existentialist, I'm the martyr
Steal from the bank of Jean-Paul Sartre
But if you hear this, no, when you hear this
You'll know I didn't, I didn't make it like I hoped we would
I didn't make it like I hoped we would
I didn't make it like I hoped we would
But you know, you know, yes, you know
No heroes
Just those who care more for their legend than their life
There are no heroes in this life
I am the little guy from the suburbs
But I learned to kill better than the others
What's that you said about execution?
Oh, bring on the beatification
But if you hear this, no, when you hear this
You'll know I didn't, I didn't make it like I hoped we would
I didn't make it like I hoped we would
I didn't make it like I hoped we would
But you know, you know, yes, you know
No heroes
And I don't care
For my legend or my life
There are no heroes in this life

It's easy to see, it's easy to see
To see only white where colour should be
It's easy to feel, it's easy to feel
But it's not good...
Lambchop - "The Man Who Loved Beer" To whom can I speak today?
The brothers they are evil
But the old friends of today
They have become unlovable
To whom can I speak today?
The gentleness has perished
And the violent man has come down...
Syd Matters - "Someday Sometimes" I wish I could see you in the dark
Some of us blow but some of us softly spark
Some of them told me they saw you shining bright
To me it doesn't matter
If you're empty on the week end
If you're...
Ultravox - "I Remember (Death In The Afternoon)" We turned the dial, we heard the news and laughed, we don't know why
We drank the wine and spoke of times we knew of days gone by
We flicked through photographs we had, somehow they made us sad...
Interpol - "My Desire" Be my desire
I'm a frustrated man
Summon us for peace
Do what we can
Feel my desire
Favor the bold
Some of us fall to the Earth
These others roam
Besieged by desire
Come on baby
You played me out...
