Текст песни Mainstream - Thea Gilmore

Headstrong, heavy weather
Going at it hell for leather
Red lights flashing on
Some little pop song
Boys get out your balzac
The empire's gonna strike back
The critics and the diplomats are living in a tin shack
Breakneck, full tilt
Climb the ladders they build
Angels in the abattoir
Junking up a good guitar
Stale city bandwidth
You don't get the language
But don't pick on the girl who's only turning on the light switch
Are you gonna swim the mainstream?
Are you gonna swim the mainstream?
Or are you gonna make like lightning?
Are you gonna swim the mainstream?
Heads up, they'll say
History was a big mistake
Chews you up, spits you out
Then asks you what the lisp's about
An old tin army
A young James Dean
And another kind of war that is raging in your bloodstream
Wildfire, wildcard
This girl's been barred
They drew the weapons, read the rules
Sent the rebels back to school
They'll book you for the next crime
Catch you in the nick of time
So don't trust a captain who is sailing in a straighter line
Are you gonna swim the mainstream?
Are you gonna swim the mainstream?
Or are you gonna make like lightning?
Are you gonna swim the mainstream?
Say your prayers, stay polite
Busy saving daylight
Age plays dirty tricks
You're looking like a counterfeit
Who's gonna train us?
Can you really blame us?
If we grow up we're all going to be famous
