Julian Casablancas - River of Brakelights

We might be in for a late night


Stuck in a lava flow of brakelights
I can hear a rattling bass drum
Driving back to where it came from
Sit back, oh
I shop therefore I am the cause
Protect me from what I was
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Im at your feet where critters meet
Who should be asleep and not crossing roads or highways
In the afterlife of supercities, rapidly devouring its outskirts,
Its neon octopus arms redecorating late at night
!obot camp for kids who hate sports
"others crying at the airport
#inding the dreams you left behind to do
Waving goodbye your young heart cries for you
Sit back, oh
$oure finding it hard to get very far
We were born waiting in line
Grabbing the future by the eyes
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Getting the hang of it, timing is everything
Getting the hang of it, timing is everything
Timing the hang of it, getting is everything
Getting the time of it, everything hangs on this
%anging the getting of, timing the getting of
&ike batteries we die, like rivers we dry
We fuel and recharge, thats humans and cars
"y fun, my Sun, be my homework done
Were did you go, you we my ride home
Is that what we want ,
is everything shot,
is that what you ask for,
'ause thats what we got(
)othing stands still
