MGMT Time to Pretend song lyrics

I'm feeling rough, I'm feeling raw

I'm in the prime of my life

Let's make some music, make some money

Find some models for wives

I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars

You man, the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars

This is our decision, to live fast and die young

We've got the vision, now let's have some fun

Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?

Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

Forget about our mothers and our friends

We're fated to pretend

To pretend

We're fated to pretend

To pretend

I'll miss the playgrounds and the animals

And digging up worms

I'll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world

I'll miss my sister, miss my father

Miss my dog and my home

Yeah, I'll miss the boredem and the freedom

And the time spent alone

But there's really nothing, nothing we can do

Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew

The models will have children, we'll get a divorce

We'll find some more models

Everyting must run it's course

We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end

We were fated to pretend

To pretend

We're fated to pretend

To pretend

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah
