L.A. Salami - Gets You Wondering lyrics

[Verse 1] In this age of existential angst Where we're all free enough to learn Your freedom may be falsified By the paycheck that you earn There are people always reminding me That you only live the once But the irony is that to feel alive Most must take life risking stunts Well I'm up to make the most of it To make the most of mine But I keep on meeting broken minds That are only twenty nine In a world where God has taken off And the wars have been and gone A person's left with just themselves And their own specific song And if this world which sits alone In the space of its own tune Were to sing a song and paint it well This master of the moon It'd be the hound dog whistle Of a falling nuclear bomb And the sighing cries of the revolutionaries Who have waited far too long And even worse the howling crap Of the Justin Bieber blues And if it's the case that you like that stuff Then no offense to you [Chorus] But if you just wade through the noise Each generation holds a gem A building block that you may miss But are sure to see again You can fight the fire, but you can't deny The reality you're in But it gets you wondering [Verse 2] I woke up quite fatigued one morn With cancer of the throat But that's what I get I suppose For being a smoking hipster dope I went to the job anyway I'd wiser just be screwed You don't ask for life but you pay for life But life does not owe you It works out the same way anyway Whether life is short or long You get to work and you fight old age And your colleagues play along On a good day you might have a chat Get caught up in a debate Like "Why's that there?" and "Why's that not?" "How much can humans take?" And every time there's always one Who says the world is wrong Well if that's the case take a look around And try to grasp that we are young For every One Direction song There's a gracious rising sun And every act of pointless hate There's a million loving mums And every four years we peacefully cheer To watch some strangers run And if I cause offense by saying so Then I did not mean you none [Chorus] But if you just wade through the noise Each generation holds a gem A building block that you may miss But are sure to see again You can fight the fire, but you can't deny The reality you're in But it gets you wondering [Verse 3] If you put life in a cider gla** And drank the whole thing down You might just end up drunk enough To get another round And what that means is basically With pleasure comes the pain And personally once I am done I'll have the same again [Chorus] Because if you just wade through the noise Each generation holds a gem A building block that you may miss But are sure to see again You can fight the fire, but you can't deny The reality you're in But it gets you wondering
