The Strokes - I'll Try Anything Once (Demo-tape)

An early demotrack by the strokes.

I edited some video material showing the band besides the stage.

Lyrics:
10 decisions shape your life
Youll be aware of 5 about
7 ways to go to school
Either youre noticed or left out
7 ways to get ahead
7 reasons to drop-out
Then I said, I can see me in your eyes.
He said I can see you in my bed.
Thats not just friendship that youre meant to
You like music we can dance to
Sit me down, shut me up
Ill calm down, and Ill get along with you
There is a time when we all fail
Some people take it pretty well
Some take it all out on themselves
Some, they just take it out on friends
Oh, everybody plays the game
And if you dont youre called insane
Dont, dont, dont, its not safe no more
Ive got to see you one more time
Son, you were born in 1984
Sit me down, shut me up
Ill calm down, and Ill get along with you
Everybody was well dressed
And everybody was a mess
6 things that I feel you must do
So that just one loves you
Oh, all the girls played mental games
And all the guys were dressed the same
Why not try it all?
If you only remember it once
Ooo
Sit me down, shut me up
Ill calm down, and Ill get along with you

[4buds2papers0problem]

I want to memorize these lyrics and sing them to myself while walking down a wintry(not too wintry) trail in some foreign land. And twinkies.

[boudy077]

whats that weird hand thing that pops up in the window at 1:16?

[jwdipietro]

which six things must you do without fail so that your wo/man loves you so?

Perhaps: Love, honor, believe, forgive and stay

[standrew09]

if this isn't beautiful, then i don't know what is...

[radiofinger]

I think it's "That's not just friendship that's romance too"

[SatounoKumo]

GTFO the "I can see me in your eyes, you said, I can see you in my bed" part IS SO "you're still the one I love, the only one I dream of"..yk by shania twain DUDE my head is like this massive tune library.I'm so proud rn lol.tbh tho this song is osm and the other one kinda lame
