you have to outgrow rock n roll

Pato Fu

Get what you can and run away
Time's running out, you won't escape
You don't wanna be that kind of fool
The guy who will never act his age

It's not that you have a choice to make
You can't afford another day
Those little things you left undone
Painted your hair with shades of grey

Why don't you settle down
Go raise a family
Then maybe you'll find out
What's left of life to live

Why don't you find a girl
Go for a pair of kids
You want a new guitar
You'd better rest your fists

So it's time when it's time
Then it's time to get old
Gotta choose it: Do it right
Or be out of control
You're part of the landscape now
You have to outgrow rock'n roll

I guess now you get what this is all about
You should be ashamed without a doubt
Go buy yourself some real shoes
No more loud amps, no screams, no shouts
