The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart - Contender lyrics

rate me

Look what you've done, what do you have now?

Things that never come,

Is it time to come down?

At the back of a crowded scene

You saw the boys in white sing

“I'm a pretender”

But you never were a contender

I heard your same old tune, singing city sins

Like you were the first one

Gave up books for film, gave up film for time

Now that you've got none

At the back of a crowded scene

You saw the boys in white sing

“I'm a pretender”

At the back of a crowded scene

You saw the boys in white sing

“I'm a pretender”

But you never were a contender
