Testo Great Expectations - The Strypes
Testo della canzone Great Expectations (The Strypes), tratta dall'album Spitting Image
Johnny's still got all his confirmation money
That you won't let him spend
Works on the building till 6 am in the summer
And you give him twenty percent
Well Johnny got a lot on conflicting ideas in his head
And he's oh so afraid
He got himself a power rack and a new haircut
Well he just tryna make the grade
Those old routines don't go too far
Those old routines ain't what we are
Oh Rosie oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down
Can't leave this town for fear of independence
Yeah boy polish that ball and chain
And why ever leave this sacred place of worship
When everywhere else probably looks the same
Just get yourself a girl that you don't really love
And stay together for the kids
Or you could stand up straight and run outside
Go ahead and live
But those old routines don't get you far
Those old routines ain't what we are
Oh Rosie oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down
And all I see
Is this great expectation
Hanging over
You and me
And now you're lying on the floor man
Head in hands feeling low
Well you'd just love to get it straight
Pray for 1958
Well go Johnny, go, go
Oh Rosie oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down
