I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Oh, Momma running out of luck
Like my sister, don't give a fuck
I wanna steal your innocence
To me, my life, it don't make sense
Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"
I should've worked much harder
I should've just not bothered
I never show up on weekdays
Something that you learned yesterday
"Drive you to work; you'll be on time
These little problems they're not yours and mine,"
"Come on and listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay"
I just want to turn you down
I just want to turn you around
Oh, you ain't never had nothin' I wanted, but...
I want it all
I just can't figure out...
Nothing
And all together it went well
We made pretend we were best friends
Then she said, "Oh, you're a freak"
"They ordered me to make mistakes"
Together again, like the beginning
It all works somehow in the end
The things we did, the things you hide
For the record it's between you and I
Oh, I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Oh, Momma running out of luck
Like my sister, don't give a fuck
I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life, it just don't make any sense
Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"
I just want to misbehave
I just want to be your slave
Oh, you ain't never had nothing I wanted, but...
I want it all
I just can't figure out...
Nothin'
And all together it went well
We made pretend we were best friends
Then she said, "Oh, I can wait"
They ordered me to make mistakes
Together again like the beginning
It all works somehow in the end
The things we did, the things you hide
And for the record, it's between you and I
The lyrics BARELY LEGAL of THE STROKES is also present in the album Is this it (2001)
The Strokes sono un gruppo musicale statunitense di rock alternativo e indie rock, formatosi a New York nel 1998. Composto da Julian Casablancas (voce), Nick Valensi (chitarra), Albert Hammond Jr. (chitarra), Nikolai Fraiture (basso) e Fabrizio Moretti (batteria), il gruppo ha raggiunto la fama internazionale con l'album di debutto *Is This It* (2001). L'album, caratterizzato da riff chitarristici accattivanti, testi ironici e un sound che rievoca gli anni '70, è stato accolto con grande entusiasmo dalla critica e dal pubblico. The Strokes hanno continuato a pubblicare album di successo come *Room on Fire* (2003) e *First Impressions of Earth* (2005), consolidando la loro posizione tra le band più influenti del rock contemporaneo. Il gruppo ha collaborato con artisti come David Byrne e Lou Reed, e i loro brani "Last Nite", "Someday", "Reptilia" e "You Only Live Once" sono diventati veri e propri inni della generazione indie.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
