Na Na
Bracket Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you listen close you'll find
All the crazy things that were left behind
When I look around they're living in the past
What the hell is in their mind

They have to feel out of place
They think vogue is a disgrace
It's not for real Days gone by are still in style
Maybe next year it happens all the while
You won't see it long 'cause it will never last
A modern-day flower child

They have to feel out of place
They think vogue is a disgrace
It's not for real

NaNaNaNaNa NaNa, NaNa, NaNa, NaNa
Hey!
