Under Cover Of Darkness

The Strokes The Strokes

Slip back, out of whack, at your best
It's a nightmare, so I'm joining the army
No house phones, but can I still call?
Will you wait for me now?

We've got the right to live, fight to use it
Got everything but you can just choose it
I won't just be a puppet on a string

Don't go that way
I'll wait for you
I'm tired of all your friends
Listening at your door
I want what's better for you

So long, my friend and adversary
But I'll wait for you

Get dressed, jump out of bed into a vest
Are you okay?
I've been all around this town
Everybody's been singing the same song
For ten years

I'll wait for you
Will you wait for me too?

And they sacrifice their lives
And they lied about those odds
They'll say it a million times
And they'll say it again

So long, my adversary and friend

Don't go that way
I'll wait for you
I'm tired of all your friends
Knockin' down your door
Get up in the morning, yelling: No more

So long, my friend and adversary
But I'll wait for you
