The Strokes, Under Control

Room_on_Fire_coverLUMPENPROLETARIAT—I don’t wanna waste your time…  I don’t wanna change your mind.  I don’t wanna change the world.  I just wanna watch it go by…  We were young, darling…  I just wanna know you’re alright…

—Messina

“Under Control” (2003) by The Strokes

I don’t wanna waste your time
I don’t wanna waste your time
I just wanna say
I’ve got to say
We worked hard, darlin’
We don’t have no control
We’re under control

I don’t wanna do it your way
I don’t wanna do it your way
I don’t wanna give it to ya your way
I don’t want to, no

I don’t wanna change your mind
I don’t wanna change the world
I just wanna watch it go by
I just wanna watch you go by
We were young, darlin’
We don’t have no control
We’re out of control

I don’t wanna do it your way
I don’t wanna do it your way
I don’t wanna give it to you, your way
I don’t want to, no

I don’t wanna change your mind
I don’t wanna waste your time
I just wanna know you’re alright
I’ve got to know you’re alright
You are young, darlin’
For now, but not for long
Under control
