Chronic Future - Things That You Oughta Know lyrics
rate me<br>
I think that you oughta know<br />
We're just actors<br />
Playin' characters<br />
Ain't that somethin'<br />
Think that you oughta know<br />
Life's a show<br />
Gotta think about that for sure<br />
<br />
Have you ever gotten stuck in makeup<br />
Doin' a commercial for a product you don't like the taste of?<br />
Now they got the (sellin face rub)<br />
And they laugh at the ad and how much space it takes up<br />
Is this real life or a movie or real life?<br />
How do we decipher real left from real right?<br />
Guess we're gonna have to keep it up alright<br />
Yeah we got a deadline headin' into tomorrow night<br />
<br />
This town's a backdrop setting in a hollywood studio<br />
Here we are the actors and audience<br />
Our life is a show oh<br />
We played the role of things you out to know<br />
This town's a backdrop setting for the drama we call our lives woah<br />
<br />
I think that you ought to know<br />
We're just actors<br />
Playin' characters<br />
Ain't that somethin'<br />
Think that you ought to know<br />
Life's a show<br />
Gotta think about that for sure<br />
<br />
Have you or anyone you know ever gone to an audition for a show and had to fuck to get the role?<br />
Have you or anyone you know ever done coke in a stall right off of the toilet bowl?<br />
Me and everyone I see seem to be entwined parts of a movie called melancholy sunshine<br />
We laugh and we cry with camera men on standby waiting for an after school moment in our eyes<br />
<br />
This town's a backdrop setting in a hollywood studio<br />
Here we are the actors and audience<br />
Our life is a show oh<br />
We played the role of things you ought to know<br />
This town's a backdrop setting for the drama we call our lives woah<br />
<br />
I'll play this part forever more<br />
Until death knocks on your front door<br />
I hope you think about this every day<br />
And I will not wait for something more<br />
To find its way to my front door<br />
I'll help you think about this every day<br />
<br />
(The beginning of) a fun time<br />
Until I lost my sunshine<br />
(I'm gonna get it again)<br />
(I'm gonna get it again tonight)<br />
Who's scripting my lines?<br />
Who's scripting my lies?<br />
I'm gonna get it again <i>[x2]</i><br />
You watch<br />
<br />
I think that you ought to know<br />
We're just actors<br />
Playin' characters<br />
Ain't that somethin'<br />
Think that you ought to know<br />
Life's a show<br />
Gotta think about that for sure<br />
<br />
Leftover is our formidable apathy<br />
Leavin' us in unforgettable agony<br />
Never wanted to go back to that strategy<br />
(so I'm losing) control of idle happenings<br />
<br />
This town's a backdrop setting in a hollywood studio<br />
Here we are the actors and audience<br />
Our life is a show oh<br />
We played the role of things you out to know<br />
This town's a backdrop setting for the drama we call our lives woah
