Текст песни La da da (Demo) - The Fold

Seventeen, no question that
I knew everything
Plain to see
Community college wasn't me
I got the call, L.A. needed
Somebody like me
I left my girlfriend behind
I'm gonna see my name in lights

La Da Da, I could get used to it
La Da Da, I could get used to it

But on record two, they signed
Another band that sounds just like you
Nothing personal, take your songs
And make your own demo
This cannot be, they said they'd make
A big star out of me
Guess I'll catch my breath
Find that girl and try again at 23

La Da Da, I'd get used to the pain
La Da Da, I'd get used to the pain

We're better off, ya know?
Who needs em, anyway?
If their heads get any bigger
They might just float away
I'm getting older now
And I'm hungry for the truth
Such a shame such fun
Was wasted on our youth

Once again, I found myself
With music on my hands
I found God, he told me
It's okay to start another band
We had a run, until the whole thing
Fell apart with the economy
Just like that, my newfound
Friends had all abandoned me

La Da Da, I'm getting used to it
La Da Da, I'm getting used to it

Here I am, ten years after
This soap opera began
Wife and child, I make up in joy
What I may lack in style
I'm writing down the things
I've always hid from in the past
Just today, I can finally say
That I'm a lucky man

La Da Da, I could get used to this
La Da Da, I could get used to this
La Da Da, I could get used to this
La Da Da, La Da Da
