FATBOY SLIM LYRICS - That Old Pair Of Jeans

"That Old Pair Of Jeans"



Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na



All you used to do was put me down

But I found a way to pick myself up off the ground

And all you used to do was criticize me

But now I found the good and I emphasize, ya see



You would always get so sensitive

And try to turn your transgressions into my guiltiness

But now, I'm certain of the way I live

And what I'm responsible for in this twisted game



And it's such a shame that you try to make pain

Another word for my name, whether giving or receiving

It's one and the same, just one more link

In your long-ass chain



But it's time to break this frame and my strengthful will

Time to jump off this negative cycle we've built

Gave my heart but my self-respect, you won't steal

Now, it's time to let ya know if you can hear or feel me



Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na



So, I asked my momma for her two cents

And then I asked my little my sister and I asked my friend

Then I asked my poppa once and I asked him again

Came two little consensus from all them opinions



That life is too short to be unhappy

And since I know what I'm worth, there'll be no settling for dirt

Knowing what I deserve is gold

If I want diamonds then I can't settle for coal and



Maybe I was just too strong to let go

Maybe I was just too weak to let it show

Maybe I was just too stubborn to say, "No"

But whatever the case, I can't take it no more



Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na



Sometimes, I think maybe we'll patch it all up

Like a favorite pair of jeans that you won't give up on and

Or maybe one of these arguments we'll make up

And start again like when we started this up



Back when everything was fresh and every moment, a blessing

I'd laugh at all of your jokes, you'd listen to my suggestions

One mind, one soul, one common destination

Now, we can't help but fight over the direction, so
