Strokes - I Can't Win lyrics

rate me

That was you up on the mountain<br />

All alone and all surrounded<br />

Walking on the ground you're breaking<br />

Laughing at the life you're wasting<br />

1 - 2 tries won't do it<br />

You do it all your life and you never get through it<br />

Everything they had to say<br />

Had been erased in just one day<br />

<br />

"Good try<br />

We don't like it"<br />

"Good try<br />

We won't take that shit."<br />

<br />

I can't win.<br />

<br />

Things in bars that people do<br />

When no one wants to talk to you<br />

Failing can be quite a breeze, he<br />

Told me that these girls were easy<br />

Happy that you said you'd mount me<br />

Felt unlucky when you found me<br />

Some nights come up empty handed<br />

<br />

Yes, I'll take it<br />

<br />

Wait now<br />

By the sidewalk<br />

Hold on<br />

Yes, I'll be right back.<br />

<br />

I can't win.<br />

<br />

Yeah, I<br />

Wait for something<br />

"Cool it<br />

We won't take that shit"<br />

"Good try<br />

We don't like it"<br />

-Hold on,<br />

Yes, I'll be right back.
