Under Cover Of Darkness
The Strokes

Slip back out of whack, at your best
It's a nightmare
So I'm joining the Army

Know how folks back out, I'll still call
Will you wait for me now?

We've got the right to live, fight to use it
Got everything but you can just choose it
I won't just be a puppet on a string

Don't go that way
I'll wait for you

And I'm tired of all your friends
Listening at your door
And I want what's better for you

So long my friend and adversary
Oh, but I'll wait for you

Get dressed, jump out of bed
You do it best
Are you OK?

I've been all around this town
Everybody's singing the same song for ten years

I'll wait for you
Will you wait for me too?

And they sacrifice their lives
In their land of all closed eyes
I've been saying it a billion times, and I'll say it again
So long my adversary and friend

Don't go that way
I'll wait for you

I'm tired of all your friends
Knocking down your door
Get up in the morning and give it your all

So long my friend and adversary
Oh I'll be waitin' for you
