Song lyrics
He seemed impressed by the way you came in
"Tell us a story, i know you're not boring"
I was afraid that you would not insist
"You sound so sleepy, just take this, now leave me"

I said: "Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast"
You're in a strange part of our town

Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road
The wait is over
Now I'm taking over
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough

(perfect solo)

Now everytime that I look at myself
"I thought I told you, this world is not for you"
The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair
"You sound so angry, just calm down you found me"

I said: "Please don't slow me down if I'm going too fast"
You're in a strange part of our town

Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changin lanes
You ran me off the road
The wait is over
Now I'm taking over
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough

I'm glad "Rock Band" included this song and allowed me to give "The Strokes" a second chance, because the guitar MAKES this awesome song! Now I have to go and give their other songs a fair shot.

This is the kind of song that sticks in people's heads. especially the riff that starts before the chorus and plays into I. I love it

I saw this video a couple times, and knew that I liked the song... But one night, completely randomly, 'Reptilia' haunted my dreams. I couldn't get it out of my head, and I had no clue what the title even was. And that was the begining of a sick obsession with this song.
----> In regaurds to the solo.... I love it so much. I want a cell phone to get that solo as my ring tone. But it bugs me that people feel that it's too simple. One of the many reasons that The Beatles were so loved was because George Harrison played guitar riffs simple enough to sing along to. It's easier to get this solo stuck in your head then something from Van Halen, eh?
