Testo It's a Hit - Rilo Kiley
Testo della canzone It's a Hit (Rilo Kiley), tratta dall'album More Adventurous (U.S. Release)
Any chimp can play human for a day
Use his opposable thumbs to iron his uniform
And run for office on election day
Fancy himself a real decision-maker
And deploy more troops than salt shaker
But it's the jungle way war is made
And you'll panic and throw your own shit at the enemy
The camera pulls back to reveal your true identity
Look, it's a sheep in wolf's clothing
A smoking gun holding ape
Any asshole can open up a museum
Put all the things he loves on display so everyone could see 'em
The house, a car, a thoughtful wife
Ordinary moments in his ordinary life
But if she blinks a star, she'll give you away
'Cause no one wants to pay to see your happiness
No one wants to pay to see your day-to-day
And I'm not buying it either
But I'll try selling it anyway
Any idiot can play Greek for a day
And join a sorority or write a tragedy
And articulate all that pain
And maybe you'll get paid
But it's a sin when success complains
And your writer's block, it don't mean shit
Just throw it against the wall and see what sticks
Gotta write a hit
I think this is it
It's a hit
And if it's not
Then it's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa)
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
Shubap shubap, my baby
Any fool can play executioner for a day
And say with fingers pointed in both directions he went that-a-way
It's only a switch or syringe
Uh-huh, exempt from eternal sins
But you still wear a cross
And you think you're gonna get in
Ah, but the pardons never come from upstairs
They're always a moment too late
But it's entertainment, keep the crowd in their coats
It's just as clear to say
It's not a hit, it's a holiday
Shubap shubap, my baby
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
I'm a holiday for a hanging (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
I'm a holiday for a hanging
I'm a holiday, yeah (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
I'm a holiday for a hanging (pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
It's a holiday for a hanging, yeah
