Wake up boys, we're in the dump again
Can't get a taxi, it's bucketing rain
Heading downtown with nothing in my brain
Trying to catch my breath
Tired legume in a smoke-filled room
The high school guys are making noise outside
Walking the hall with my shoes untied
Dying to catch my death
And now it's Pekoe tea
With a reflection of me
My only company
As far as I can see
We're doing this the hardest way
Back at the Hotel Majestic
Same time every day
Hey hey
Watch what you wish for, maybe wish too much?
You'll wake up in Westmoreland doubling Dutch
Aware of the uproar but numb to the touch
Sifting through bad poetry
A sweet disorder never served me as well
As a tape recorder and a worn-out Dell
Time to reorder, man I feel like hell
I wonder what's on TV
And now it's Pekoe tea
With a reflection of me
My only company
As far as I can see
We're doing this the hardest way
Stuck in the Hotel Majestic
Six nights, seven days
I wake up around two o'clock
Scrape off my eyelids and' search for my socks
Holy shit, I'm late
Now it's knock knock knock
Let's go
We're doing this the hardest way
Doing this the hardest way
Rocking the Hotel Majestic
I hope you enjoyed your stay
Hey hey

Fountains of Wayne sono una rock band americana formatasi nel 1995 a New York. Il gruppo, composto da Adam Schlesinger (voce, chitarra), Chris Collingwood (chitarra, voce), Jody Porter (basso) e Brian Young (batteria), è noto per il suo sound pop-rock orecchiabile e le liriche spesso ironiche e autoironiche. Il loro successo più grande è stato "Stacey's Mom", singolo del 2003 che ha raggiunto la posizione numero 1 nelle classifiche alternative statunitensi e ha contribuito a far conoscere al pubblico internazionale il gruppo. Tra gli altri brani rappresentativi ricordiamo "Red Tide" (dal loro album di debutto "Ugly Radio") e "Hackensack" (dall'album "Welcome Interstate Managers"). Fountains of Wayne hanno pubblicato sei album in studio, ottenendo un discreto successo commerciale e una solida base di fan. Adam Schlesinger, oltre a essere il frontman del gruppo, ha anche lavorato come compositore per film e televisione, vincendo un Emmy Award nel 2018 per la colonna sonora della serie "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend". Schlesinger è morto nel 2020 a causa di complicazioni dovute al COVID-19.

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
