Nag Nag Nag Nag - Art Brut

Wet trousers in the washing machine

But I’d rather be damp than seen in jeans

I’m grown up now but refuse to learn

That those were just adolescent concerns

I’m possibly missing something

Someone should have told me

A record collection reduced to a mixed tape

Headphones on I made my escape

I’m in a film of personal soundtrack

I’m leaving home and I’m never gonna come back

I’m learning lyrics from the CD inlay

To impress people with the stupid things I say

I’m grown up now but refuse to learn

That those were just adolescent concerns

I’m possibly missing something

Someone should have told me

A record collection reduced to a mixed tape

Headphones on I made my escape

I’m in a film of personal soundtrack

I’m leaving home and I’m never gonna come back

I used to have a bedroom to hide in

But now I’m outside deciding

Older but wiser

This song’s the decider

Is it the sound of a man wrestling with emotion

Or the sound of him losing and causing commotion?

I’m nothing to my peers but envy and hatred

How many girls have they seen naked?

I’m grown up now but refuse to learn

That those were just adolescent concerns

I’m possibly missing something

Someone should have told me

A record collection reduced to a mixed tape

Headphones on I made my escape

I’m in a film of personal soundtrack

I’m leaving home and I’m never gonna come back
