Watch the Tapes LCD Soundsystem

[Chorus]
Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes
Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes
Read all the pamphlets and watch the tapes
I get all confused when you mix up the dates (Woo!)

[Verse 1]
Don't gimme the pretend, you come for the weekend
And you stay for the week
You say that you hate it, but that's how you made it
Just to keep it oblique
We're both high, high, high
High, high on lemon sips
We're all su-su-su—
Sucked in by parlour tricks

[Verse 2]
Oh, the people deceive you, the kids never leave
'Cause you make them at home
You try to appease them and they show you the stick
But still, you pick up the phone
But hey, man, you can take it
As long as they don't shove you out in the cold
It's not getting better, no, it's not getting better, man
It's just getting old
And ah-ooh! We do what we're programmed to do
Hey, we do what we're told
Ah-woo-hoo!
