Uniform Bloc Party

[Verse 1]
There was a sense of disappointment as we left the mall
All the young people looked the same
Wearing their masks of cool and indifference
Commerce dressed up as rebellion

[Chorus]
Because we're so handsome and we're so bored
So entertain us, tell me a joke
Make it long, make it last, make it cruel, just make me laugh
We can't be hurt, we can't be hurt

[Verse 2]
Drink to forget your blues on the weekend
Think about more things to buy
The TV taught me how to sulk and love nothing
And how to grow my hair long

[Chorus]
Because we're so handsome and we're so bored
So entertain us, tell me a joke
Make it long, make it last, make it cruel, just make me laugh
We can't be hurt, we can't be hurt

[Verse 3]
So why do you go picking fights that you will lose?
(When you have entertainment
When you have things to pass the time?)
So why do you go thinking thoughts that are above you?
(You can be happy, just play dumb)
(You can be happy, just play dumb)
