and i was a boy from school

hot chip

and i was a boy from school

helplessly helping all the rules

and there was a boy at school

hopelessly wrestling all his fools

and there was a girl at school

blending all the words she learned from home

nothing could keep her a child

long hours though you know we try

we tried

but we didn't have long

we tried

but we don't belong

now i met you on the street

heartlessly breaking rules we meet

lives are found but loves are lost

say goodbye to nothing everything caused

now i find you on the street

breaking rules hopelessly we meet

lives are found but loves are lost

say goodbye to everything nothing caused

we tried

but we didn't have long

we tried

but we don't belong

i got

i got lost

you said this was the way back

we tried

but we didn't have long

we tried

but we don't belong
