"Rambo" lyrics

"Rambo"

If you're a poet then I'm happy as a fraud
But you really know it, you're so well informed
But your ancient precedent has got me so damn bored
I'm happy to be basic, right now that's all I can afford
And she said "I don't know about you, but Europe has a long artistic legacy"
And if you can't see the problem with that then
Then honestly your poetry's no good to me

I should run and hide
Or die in the generational divide

I've never read Rambo, I'm terrified of guns
And if ignorance is sexy then I've got to run
(Run, run)
Was I born too late for the golden days of my nanny state
We never cried on my side of the generational divide

I should run and hide
Or die in the generational divide
I don't know why we never cried
On my side of the generational divide

I should run and hide
Or die in the generational divide
I don't know why we never cried
On my side of the generational divide

Looking up I thought I had a friend
Praying that the moment wouldn't end, then
Somebody is laughing with me right?
Counting down the moments till my hair turns white

If you're a poet then I'm happy as a fraud
(Looking up I thought I had a friend)
But you really know it, you're so well informed
(Praying that the moment wouldn't end, then)
But your ancient precedent has got me so damn bored
(Somebody is laughing with me right?)
I'm happy to be basic, right now that's all I can afford
(Counting down the moments till my hair turns white)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
