graduation blues - the vanity project (uk) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
idealism follows me around
but it’s only a matter of time before it drowns
cos my closest are turning
they used to be yearning just like me
my realism is about to choke
every idealistic, juvenistic modic-m of hope
i’ll stop buying their stories
we all become tories in the end

[bridge 1]
so what do you want to grow to be?
son, you’ll be lucky just to eat
choice is a right and all are free:
rhetoric of the bourgeoisie
type another hundred words
and have another cup of tea

[verse 2]
my younger man is going to break my heart
but i can’t tell where his song stops and where mine starts
he’s such beautiful ideas
as uninformed and naive as they are
and i don’t think he’d like me if we met
cos i’d join one direction in a heartbeat if they’d let me
he’d go bounce round the garden
and play the lead part in his own film

[bridge 2]
so just keep me tranquilised with tea
there’s so much i’ve trained myself to need
boy alone can live on music, art and history
then i’ll reach my mid 30s
and all i’ll think about is money

[verse 3]
idealism, you have done me wrong
it’s just a matter of time before i lose faith in this song
but i’ll just keep on playing
and hopelessly praying till i do
