letra de good old fashioned american depression - will wood
[intro, spoken]
i got a new phone today
not because i wanted one, but because i needed one
at the stage i’m in in my life now
i no longer get things because i want them
now i sometimes get things when i need them
every cent that i make goes to a something that
i wish i could live without
no more spending money, no more allowances, no more going out
none of that jazz
no more treating myself to dinners, no more treating myself to anything
i can’t afford cigarettes, i don’t drink anymore, i don’t have a good time
i’ve lost all of my friends because i focus on my career instead of focusing on the things that matter to me
or instead of focusing on the things that i’m told are supposed to matter to me
but really i suppose i don’t really know what matters to me
and its all the things that i’m supposed to think matter to me
really don’t matter to me and that includes my friends and my family
that includes the things the people that are close to me
that includes my loves
my girlfriends, my boyfriends, my neithers, my in-betweens
the only thing that i end up [?] are the f-cking black and white right in front of me
[?] i’m used to seeing everything every time blacks and whites
spending way too much time in front of the f-cking keyboard
try to hang around when i wanna be doing my f-cking music
instead of trying to find out what i wanna do with my f-cking life
because there is no money in anything that i do
there is only an image of the thing that is going to happen next
and that is not…
i suppose what i really wanna say is
that it’s, it’s just uh. good old fashioned american depression
[interlude, spoken]
this is a brand new song
when you find the proof for the truth you made
would you use it to choose how you screw your faith, ah?
ooh, american depression
when you make the mistakes that your fate’s been waiting for
try to escape but you just keep making more
ooh, american depression
jesus, please just believe us
like the way that we were told to believe in you
we’ve undressed from our sunday best
but no tailors got no tools for no birthday suit
so the least that you could do is return the favor
our saving disgrace is that we’re the savior
[chorus]
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
tell me it gets better, but it’s only an expression
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
ooh, shalalalala, ooh
american depression
oooh, american depression
so when you wash your your hands of where you’ve been
until you flood the second floor
neatly fold your skeletons but still can’t shut the closet door
ooh, american depression
and when you try to make your present past, but future last forever
never tethered to whatever even makes you bother getting better
it’s just american depression
lover, why did you turn out the lights?
when beauty’s in the eyes of those beholding
could you hold me closer?
we get dressed to impress, i guess
in layer after layer to get off our chest
it’s cold out now, we can take it off later
better safe than sorry, and we know the danger
[chorus]
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
tell you it gets better, but i know it’s an expression
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
ooh, shalalalala
american depression
oooh, american depression
[scatting]
doctor, could you run another test?
gotta feeling that this time i may just pass it
well, if you raise the average
we all sing when the bell curve rings
in lyrics symptomatic of the way we think
if our harmonies don’t sync, we can change our voices
a chorus a condition of our diagnosis
[chorus]
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
tell me it gets better, but it’s only an expression
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
ooh, shalalalalalalalalalala
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
tell me it gets better, but it’s only an expression
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
ooh, shalalalala
it’s just good old fashioned american depression
ooh, shalalalala
american depression
