You wanted a hit - But maybe we don't do hits

I try and try    - It ends up feeling kind of wrong

You wanted it tough - But is it ever tough enough

No, nothing's ever tough enough

Until we hit the road                    [Intro] (x2)

Yeah, you wanted it lush                Bm-G Em Bm Bm

But honestly, you must hush

No, honestly, you know too much          [Riff] (x32)

So leave us, leave us on our own              Bm-G Em

And so you wanted a hit

Well, this is how we do hits           [Instru] G  Em

You wanted a hit                           (x8) Bm Bm

But that's not what we do   [Instru] (x2)

You wanted it real - But can you tell me what's real

There's lights and sounds and stories

Music's just a part

Yeah, you wanted the truth

And then you said you want proof

I guess you're used to liars - Saying what they want

((And/No) (we won't be your babies anymore x2) [Cho-

 We (won't/can't) be your babies                 rus]

     'til you take us home x2)

                                        [Instru] (x2)

Yeah, you wanted it smart

((But/No) honestly, (I'm not/we're never) smart x2)

We fake it, fake it all the time

Yeah, you wanted the time - But maybe I can't do time

Oh, we both know that's an awful line

But it doesn't make it wrong

You wanted it right - No out of mine and out of sight

No dirty bus and early flight    ╔══════════════════╗

No seven days and forty nights   ║ You Wanted a Hit ║

Yeah, you wanted a hit           ║ LCD Soundsystem  ║

But tell me, where's the point in it ═══════════════╝

You wanted a hit

But that's not what we do  [Chorus] (x4) [Intro] (x8)
