The Strokes - Under Control Lyrics

Lyrics

I don't want to waste your time
I don't want to waste your time
I just want to say
I've got to say
We worked hard, darling
We don't have no control
We're under control
I don't want to do it your way
I don't want to do it your way
I don't want to give it to you, your way
I don't want to know

I don't want to change your mind
I don't want to change the world
I just want to watch it go by
I just want to watch you go by
We were young, darling
We don't have no control
We're out of control

I don't want to do it your way
I don't want to do it your way
I don't want to give it to you, your way
I don't want to know

I don't want to change your mind
I don't want to waste your time
I just want to know you're alright
I've got to know you're alright
You are young, darling
For now, but not for long
Under control
