"When It Started" lyrics - THE STROKES

THE STROKES
"When It Started"

Won't decide, but he won't debate
Said, "Thanks, my friend, thought it was too late."
Oh why oh why, I don't know

So you think things move pretty fast out here
Well just wait my dear, 'til you look up there
Oh maybe someday you'll know

Had his second kid, was an early night
Gotta be well-dressed 'cause he hates to fight
Oh loves his job, takes it home

Anything they wanted
They could have it, have it
Didn't even notice
I don't mind it, mind it

Won't decide but he won't debate
Said, "Thanks, my friend, thought that we was dead."
Oh why oh why
I don't know

Think things move pretty fast out here
But just wait my dear, 'til we get up there
Oh maybe someday they'll know

Come on, tell me
Does he warm the room when he comes
Or does he just know how to leave
When it gets cold
I don't care, I don't care
'Cause it's free
