lyrics

Practice in an hour
Got an idea, won't matter
Never time to work a new one
When the previous are scattered
Tattered
Never ever right
Play it different every night
What's the first note in the section
How does that one go again?

So we
Play what we know
At every single show
Turn the amps up to 11
Maybe nobody will go, so what

Stare at the ceiling
Sunday nothing much appealing
Could I play, could I write
Nothing happening tonight
Got the time, not the motivation
Nothing but procrastination
Wait until I get the proper
Setup then it's on

Till then we
Play what we know
At every single show
If there's a new one on the record
Chances are it's pretty old

And so we smile
Once in a while

No not that one
Lets do something from the backlog
Getting sore, getting tired
Feeling less and less inspired
Mired in a lack of vision
No one gave this one a listen
Wasn't asking for an input there's
Nothing worse than your opinion

So we play what we know
At every fucking show
You thought we'd play this one correctly
Who are we the Rolling Stones

And so we smile
Once in a while

I try all the lessons
But the practicing is pressing
Into certain territory
That I'm feeling will be boring, snoring
DIY for life
Who needs musical advice
If the Replacements did it wasted
Then we'll have another pint

And play it live
And play it live
And play it live
Let's try it live

And so let's play what know
Till our heads fucking explode
You thought you came to see an artist
Here I thought you wouldn't notice
That we play what we
Oh yeah we play what we know

And so we smile
Once in a while
