HOT CHIP LYRICS - And I Was A Boy from School

"And I Was A Boy from School"



And I was a boy from school

Helplessly helping all the rules

And there was a boy at school

Hopelessly wrestling all his fools



And there was a girl at school

Blending all the words she learned from home

Nothing could keep her a child

Long hours though you know we try



[Chorus - Repeat 2x]

We tried, but we didn't have long

We tried, but we don't belong



Now I met you on the street

Heartlessly breaking rules we meet

Lives are found but loves are lost

Say goodbye to nothing everything caused



Now I find you on the street

Breaking rules hopelessly we meet

Lives are found but loves are lost

Say goodbye to everything nothing caused



We tried, but we didn't have long

We tried, but we don't belong



I got, I got lost

You said this was the way back



We tried, but we didn't have long

We tried, but we don't belong
