Dine n’Dash Songtext
von The Strokes

Do what you will, you can leave when you want
Leave if you want, but I bet that you won′t
I see your problem, and it's nothing to hide
Find any sailor with that look in his eye
Opening up, but there′s no one that really cares

Mistook the words of a wise man who once said
"The birds of a feather, die together"

We could not afford it
We would dine and dash
I would always go last
No one's gonna search me tonight
And I would give you the easy way out
It's going great


I will not surrender
Something in my brain
I will not defend thеm
Lies you told today
Fighting for the future
Watch thе witches burn
I cannot defend them

Permission to speak
Permission to launch
Permission to sit
Permission to die

I sit him down, I tie him up
I beat it out of him, alright
I beat his brains out until they′re on the floor
Until his family mourns

I′d shoot him now if he was here
I'd slit his throat from ear to ear
But I have sworn a life of peace
How can I reconcile this beast?

We could not afford it
So we′d dine and dash
I would always go last
No one's gonna search me tonight
I would give you the easy way out


We could not afford it
Oh, we′d dine and dash
I would always go last
No one's gonna search us tonight
I would give you the easy way out

Say, say what you want, it′s fine
One at a time, we're born
Nothing is off the table anymore
Life, life isn't what they taught
Oh shit, I′m out of ammo
One in a million for sure

Say, I think I′m prejudiced
'Cause I don′t like your face
Over time, I'll accept it though
I guess I′m just an animal
Is that okay? I know
Say you want it, say you want it

I think that's -
I think that′s the minimum soft
And you can go harder if you want
But that's the minimum soft
