Spoon Carryout Kids lyrics

I was a carryout kid we lived another life
We knew the things that we did would somehow prove right
We lived for joyless love and god above and here in the room
As it burned to a tomb and set the city alight flames ignite

But now I work everyday, I get things done
I check the gas in the tank go to the movies
And to the bank and stay well hid

Aw carryout kids, oh, what we did
And that's right I couldn't read her the rights
I couldn't live the life, I couldn't live the life

Aw no, aw no, my mathematical mind
Now I know, now I know, now I know
The world of magazine life, magazine life, magazine life

Because I work everyday, I gotta get things done

And I can't give myself a rest on the way
To getting blessed for getting a nun done
But carryout kids we meant what we did
I know it wasn't polite setting the city alight

Now I know, now I know
I wanna life the life, I wanna roam the rights
Now I know now, I know
I wanna live the life, now I know, now I know
Now I know I wanna live the life
