paroles de chanson Knack for Life - Gogol Bordello

Knack for life
What it is, what it is, what is it?
Knack for life
Can I get a hint?
Knack for life
Done gone missing
Knack for life
It's been out of print

My grandma told me, "When you pick a new friend
Try to picture if he'll still be there at the end"
Way past the sound of that old chopper
Gonna bring about the first copper

Knack for life
What it is, what it is, what is it?
Knack for life
Can I get a hint?
Knack for life
Done gone missing
Knack for life
Yeah, it's been out of print

Her sweet old-timer told me
"If you drop bread on the floor
What's picked up fast ain't fallen
It won't count as beastie"
And I believe him
He came home from 4 year war
And on the top of that
He lived another 60

Have you had a thousand years?
You could have built your ark
Society hidden rules you would crack
But the way that you kid yourself
With your young beauty self
You're cheating yourself out of that knack

Knack for life
What it is, what it is, what is it?
Knack for life
Can I get a hint?
Knack for life
Done gone missing
Maybe there's reason
Why it's out of print

In devastation central
Report of stolen gold
And the grandest canyon
Is between the young and old
But how long can you run a nation
On a steady diet of old-timer discrimination?

Knack for life
What it is, what it is, what is it?
Knack for life
Can I get a hint?
Knack for life
Come on, get on with it
Maybe there's reason
Why it's out of print

Have you had a thousand years?
To figure it all out
Society's hidden rules you would crack
But the way that you kill yourself
To solder your lineage
You're cheating yourself out of that knack
Knack for life
