Time To Pretend Lyrics

MGMT

I'm feeling rough, I'm feeling raw, I'm in the prime of my life. Let's make some music, make some money, find some models for wives. I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin, and fuck with the stars. You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars.
This is our decision, to live fast and die young. We've got the vision, now let's have some fun. Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do? Get jobs in offices, and wake up for the morning commute?
Forget about our mothers and our friends We're fated to pretend To pretend We're fated to pretend To pretend
I'll miss the playgrounds and the animals and digging up worms I'll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/time-to-pretend-lyrics-mgmt.html ] I'll miss my sister, miss my father, miss my dog and my home Yeah, I'll miss the boredem and the freedom and the time spent alone.
But there's really nothing, nothing we can do Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew. The models will have children, we'll get a divorce We'll find some more models, everything must run its course.
We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end We were fated to pretend To pretend We're fated to pretend To pretend
Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah

Tell Us What These Lyrics Mean To You...

This song is way to depressing to be good. I like them better with electric feel. Choking on vomit is not pretty although very realistic for this band!!

Another great song...Music and lyrics are amazing. I especially like the opening sound, a crescendo that ignites pure energy. ---------------------------- Om Shanti!

The meaning is pretty simple, this fella doesn't like the boredom of his life. He decides to mix it up and do some ****s, the feeling is euphoric and exotic. He realizes that ****s can be fun but aren't your family or friends, life gets very depressing. Then he chokes on his vomit one time when he did ****s and dies.

And you are just a stupid person for not understanding that the indefinite article "an" should not be used before the word "stupid". Now stop making fun of others just to make yourself feel better about yourself, and if you are going to make fun of a "teenager" I suggest not using acronyms like "GTFO" or putting a "z" in place of an "s" (it makes you seem immature as well as extremely stupid). ****g tool, get a life.
