๐ Lyrics
The bands I like, they don't sell too many records
And the girls I like, they don't kiss too many boys
Books I read will never be bestsellers, yeah
But come on, fellas, at least we made our choice, hey!
Hey-hey-hey-hey!
What do we want?
And when do we want it?
And how would we feel if we knew that we were never gonna get it?
And where did we start from?
And where are we going?
Can anyone here say with any certainty that they know what they're doing?
Ever feel like an awkward understudy
Thrown into a cast where you just don't get along?
Crowd and the crew, all standing silent staring
And you can't shake the feeling that somehow you're doing it wrong
What do we want?
Mom and dad
Always seem like they had a plan
Everything fell apart when mom moved on
Now, dad's a broken man
And all these decisions that keep getting made
I can't remember making them, and nobody wants to explain
We're all awkward understudies wearing comfortable shoes
Getting comfortable with doing it wrong
Missed the dress rehearsals, and we had too much to drink before the show
But now it's showtime, and we're singing our song
Because the bands I like, they don't sell too many records
And the girls I like, they don't kiss too many boys
Books I read will never be bestsellers, yeah
But come on, fellas, at least we made our choice
Bands I like, they don't sell too many records
And the girls I like, they don't kiss too many boys
Books I read will never be bestsellers, yeah
But come on, fellas, at least we made our choice
Be a fan of every band who ever made you wanna move your feet
Fall in love with every person who ever made your heart wanna skip a beat
So come on, come on, come on
What do we want?
We shall not overcome
We shall underwhelm
Hey-hey!
Because the lives we lead may not be so very perfect
And the plans we make may not use serve some kind of purpose
But the hearts we meet still beat the way they used to
If you're doing it wrong, yeah, well, what you gonna do?
What do we want?
And the girls I like, they don't kiss too many boys
Books I read will never be bestsellers, yeah
But come on, fellas, at least we made our choice, hey!
Hey-hey-hey-hey!
What do we want?
And when do we want it?
And how would we feel if we knew that we were never gonna get it?
And where did we start from?
And where are we going?
Can anyone here say with any certainty that they know what they're doing?
Ever feel like an awkward understudy
Thrown into a cast where you just don't get along?
Crowd and the crew, all standing silent staring
And you can't shake the feeling that somehow you're doing it wrong
What do we want?
