Aristocrats Songtext
von Raleigh Ritchie

Sometimes I don′t recognise my mind
Sometimes I wonder if it's yours or mine
I never saw you cry
And I wonder if that′s why

Sometimes got a skip in my step
And a drink on my breath
This cigarette and I hope that's all you left

I don't even know if I know my own mind
I don′t know even if I′m on my own time
I don't even know if I know what′s right for me, yeah
I don't even want a patch on my jacket
I don′t wanna move another tax bracket
I don't wanna be a part of my family tree
I don′t wanna turn my back
But I don't want a part of that
In the aristocracy


Sometimes I don't hold my rank
And most times I got you to thank
Oh, you know you′re why
There′s energy in your tank
But I've got nothing left in mine

Sometimes got a skip in my step
And a drink on my breath
This cigarette and I hope that′s all you left

I don't even know if I know my own mind
I don′t know even if I'm on my own time
I don′t even know if I know what's right for me, yeah
I don't even want a patch on my jacket
I don′t want move another tax bracket
I don′t wanna be a part of my family tree
I don't wanna turn my back
But I don′t want a part of that
In the aristocracy


Look, fuck it, I got Nicorette in my pocket
I've got memories I suppress, so there
I guess I′ll just forget it again
It's easier that way
I guess I′ve got calls to make and texts to ignore
Ain't life a bore when you're a mess?
Anyway I′m tongue-tied, brain fried
I′ve sacrificed my whole life
I don't think you realise but you are in my insides
My brain hurts and it ain′t worth it
I'll keep hurting, I′ll keep working
I'll go high when I get low
And I′ll get by, you'll never know
My brain hurts and I'll keep working
And you′re inside my mind
My whole life and I don′t think you realise
But you are in my insides

I don't even know if I know my own mind
I don′t know even if I'm on my own time
I don′t even know if I know what's right for me, yeah
I don′t even want a patch on my jacket
I don't want move another tax bracket
I don't wanna be a part of my family tree
I don′t wanna turn my back
But I don′t want a part of that
In the aristocracy
