Rollerblades
Eliza Doolittle Lyrics
I know you say you're ready to change
But I need to get it down on paper
It's in your face you're ready to blame
The first guy in line to catch the train
I'll save your seat
'Cause you don't stand for what you preach
You're singing with a broken string, tell me what you really mean,
Do you know what you want?
Rolling on moving on
It's time to take the time to create
'Cause you're running late the doors are closing
So tip your hat and you might get back
Whatever you need is up ahead
This train won't stop for anybody to get off
You're singing with a broken string tell me what you really mean
Do you know what you want?
While beating up on yesterday, I was on my rollerblades
Rolling on moving on
You're singing with a broken string tell me what you really mean
Do you know what you want?
Do you know, oh no
We got to run with it
It will get better
And that leaves we're stuck together
Make your mind up
Know what you need to say before you shout at me
So take your seat 'cause standing only wears out feet
You're singing with a broken string, tell me what you really mean
Do you know what you want?
You're beating up on yesterday, I was on my rollerblades
Rolling on, moving on
You're singing with a broken string, tell me what you really mean
Do you know what you want?
Beating up on yesterday, I was on my rollerblades
Rolling on, moving on
Do you know what you want?

Heard this in Target two days ago, of all places! It wasn't very loud, so at first I thought maybe it was Corinne Bailey Rae (Put Your Records On) and then when I realized it wasn't she, thought maybe it was Smile-era Lily Allen. Managed to catch a few lyrics and thanks to Google, found this gem I'd never heard before. Thanks Target and Google!
