Song lyrics

There was a sense of disappointment as we left the mall All the young people looked the, same Wearing their masks of Commerce dressed up as, rebellion 'Cause we're so handsome and we're so bored So entertain us, tell me a joke Make it long, make it last Make it cruel, just make me laugh We can't be heard, we can't be heard Drink to forget your blues on the weekend Think about more things to, buy The TV taught me how to sulk and love nothing And how to grow my hair long 'Cause we're so handsome and we're so bored So entertain us, tell me a joke Make it long, make it last Make it cruel, just make me laugh We can't be heard, we can't be heard So why'd you go picking fights that you'll lose? (When you have entertainment, when you have things to pass the time) So why do you go thinking thoughts that are above you? (You can be happy just playing dumb) (You can be happy just playing dumb) Well I was brave, and unique, intelligent, a snowflake; I could have been a hero No one can be trusted over the age of fourteen (Tattoo our arms) (Converse shoes) (Cynical) Well should we tell ourselves we're different I've gotten so good at lying to myself Oh! All my pain and honour is used up Oh! Oh! Oh! All my guns are rusted So when're you gonna realise Those are not your wrongs to right Have another line, have another drink I am a martyr, I just need a motive I am a martyr, I just need a cause I'm a believer, I just need a moment I'm a believer, I just need a cause We're finding it hard to break the mould We're finding it hard to be alone We're finding it hard to untie ourselves We have nothing at all to say Uniform Uniform Uniform There was a sense of disappointment as we left the mall All the young people looked the same
