Song lyrics
I wanna be forgotten
And I don't wanna be reminded
He said please, don't make this harder
No, I won't yet
I wanna be beside her
She wanna be admired
He said please, don't make this harder
No, I won't yet

Oh dear, is it really untrue
That they are famous and they want it to sound new
Topped in ideas for countdown shows
Who's culture is this and does anybody know
I'm waiting tell myself, life ain't chess
When no one comes in, and yes
You're alone
You don't miss me
I know

Oh, and tell me seeing what did you write
And come together in the middle of the nite
All that's an ending that I can't write
See 'cos I've got you to let me down

I wanna be forgotten
And I don't wanna be reminded
He said, please don't make this harder
No, I won't yet
I wanna be beside her
She wanna be admired
He said please, don't make this harder
No, I won't yet

it's not the best on the album, but it's pretty good all the same, and methinks Julian knew perfectly well what he was doing when he wrote that opening line

one of my favourite songs ever. the strokes are such a great band, and they don't get enough credit. Hopefully someday people will realize that, and listen to good music like the Strokes instead of all the other crap out there.
