There was a wonderful structure to the city
And it put my cares to rest
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
There was a wonderful structure to the city
And it put my cares to rest
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
Takin' inventory of his life
Seein' snapshots chronologically inline
Something told him he should look around and tidy up
He collected many things but never quite enough
Tried lookin' at it from a new perspective
Flat on his back but he still heard the directive
Orders from that corner where that shadow always lived
Never asked permission, he just hopes that they forgive
[Chorus]
I don't want to go like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions, wonderin' what to do, oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate?
[Verse 2]
Blankets over mirrors, she tends to like it
She's not afraid of her reflection
But of what she might see behind it
She had plans to change her name, yeah
Just not the traditional way, yeah
Haunted by a couple big mistakes
She covers all the dents with the way she decorates
Then one night she got cold with no blankets on her bed
So she ripped them off the mirror, stepped back and she said
[Chorus]
I don't want to go like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions, wonderin' what to do, oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate?
[Bridge]
With the bells and the whistles scaled back
Like an isolated track
And he feels trapped when he's not inebriated
Fair to say he's fairly sedated most days of the week
He might have made it if he lived on a different street
I repeat, scaled back and isolated
He says he likes an open schedule, but he mostly hates it
If you're running to his room, take a breath before you break-in
Put your ear up to the door, tell me can you hear him saying?
[Chorus]
I don't want to go like this
At least let me clean my room
I don't want to leave like this
Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions, wondering what to do, oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate?
I don't want to go like this (Go like this)
At least let me clean my room (Clean my room)
I don't want to leave like this (Leave like this)
Cause the last thing I want to do is (To do is)
Make my people make decisions, wondering what to do, oh
Should they keep it on display (On display)
Or redecorate?
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Or redecorate?
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Or redecorate?
有一个美妙的结构，城市
它把我的忧虑休息
哦，哦，哦
哦，哦，哦
[诗歌1]
他的生活羚牛盘点
Seein'快照时间顺序直列
东西告诉他，他应该环顾四周，整理
他收集了很多事情，但总觉得不够
试图在看它从一个新的视角
在他的背上，但他还是听到了指令
从那个角落的订单，其中那个影子一直住
从来不问权限，他只希望他们原谅
[合唱]
我不想去这样的（哦，哦，哦）
至少让我打扫房间
我不想这样离开（哦，哦，哦）
原因我想做的最后一件事是
让我的人们做决定的，迷惘做什么，哦
他们应该保持它显示
或重新装修？
[诗歌2]
在镜子毯子，她往往喜欢
她不是怕她反思
但她可能会看到它背后
她计划改变她的名字，是啊
不只是传统的方式，是啊
一对夫妇大的失误闹鬼
她涵盖了所有的凹痕与她装饰的方式
后来有一天晚上，她感冒了与她的床上没有毯子
于是，她撕开他们脱镜，后退了几步，她说：
[合唱]
我不想去这样的（哦，哦，哦）
至少让我打扫房间
我不想这样离开（哦，哦，哦）
原因我想做的最后一件事是
让我的人们做决定的，迷惘做什么，哦
他们应该保持它显示
或重新装修？
[桥]
随着缩减的钟声和口哨
就像一个孤立的轨道
而当他不喝醉了，他会觉得自己被困
公平地说，他是相当镇静的一周的大部分时间
他会成功的，如果他住在不同的街道
我再说一遍，缩减和分离
他说，他喜欢一个开放的时间表，但他大多讨厌
如果你正在运行自己的房间，你打破，之前做一次深呼吸
把你的耳朵到门口，告诉我，你可以听到他在说什么？
[合唱]
我不想去这样
至少让我打扫房间
我不想这样离开
原因我想做的最后一件事是
让我的人们做决定的，不知道做什么，哦
他们应该保持它显示
或重新装修？
我不想去这样的（是这样的）
至少让我打扫房间（清洁我的房间）
我不想这样离开（这样离开）
因为我想做的最后一件事是（做的是）
让我的人们做决定的，不知道做什么，哦
他们应该保持它显示（在显示屏上）
或重新装修？
[OUTRO]
哦，哦，哦
哦，哦，哦
或重新装修？
哦，哦，哦
哦，哦，哦
或重新装修？
