Dignified and Old

歌詞

(J. Richman/The Modern Lovers - The Modern Lovers, 1975) My telephone never rings She'd never call me I hate myself today But I can see through this bitterness and sadness And so I won't die Someday I think I'll be dignified and old Well my friends say that I deceive myself And that I contradict myself And I can't say if they're right But I'm not ashamed Oh I can take a challenge And so I won't die Someday I'll be dignified and old And I say, hey kids (Hey kids) I said, hey kids (Hey kids) I say someday we'll be dignified and old That's right I said some day we'll be dignified (Hey kids, Hey kids) Someday we'll be dignified (Hey kids, Hey kids) Someday we could be dignified and old together Well now Look at the mountain My girl and I used to stand on the mountain And the sun shines, she's dead, and I cry But I can see through this death and the sadness And so I won't die now Someday I wanna be dignified and old Well now, see the desert I sit all alone in the desert And no girl understands me But I can see through this bleakness and grey and sadness And well I won't die now Someday I'll be dignified and old I say, you, don't die now Someday we'll be dignified and old together
