The Ting Tings Hang It Up is the official first single from British rock duo The Ting Tings' sophomore album
My friends they get me higher and higher They're killing me with friendly fire
We meet beneath the cactus tree
The working on spikes just stink for me
My friends ain't gotta worry more, They meet outside the corner store
And walk the pavement, miss the cracks, I'd join them if I could relax.
Live by tricks when you don't have a thing, Live like a hippie if you wanna be king
People say it's not worth the wait, Everybody loves somebody to hate
I'm not gonna go and rush this through my veins
Blow them up while looking at this again,
Punk rock ain't in division
Said all the weak can get to prison,
I wanna write about setting something free
All the changes drive us back to see, And this is all about starting out again
Same old, same old, never the same same
My friends won't by one get a job
Meet boys and girls and get a dog
Throw parties, we sit on the ground
I'd rather be, just let me down
People say it's not worth the wait
Everybody loves somebody to hate
And you can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
You can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it upYou can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
You can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
Could've been a lawyer, take what you can, Never been happy since time began
It's getting kinda heavy, I'm a body full of backbones, Spread it in the fire yeah cover me in blackstones
You got the time, they all can wait, You wanna start talking, cuz it's not too late
Aquarium, stare at um
Everybody loves somebody to hate
Break it, make it, you can make the break
Back and for f**ksake just make it great
Intake, don't fake, gonna let go
(Give it up ya mutha f**ker)
Make all the changes that you need to make
Stand back, give it up, ain't life a b--ch
No-one makin' you just you for this
Insane else is failure maintain
Time for you to re-arrange
And you can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
You can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
You can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
You can hang it up, And you can hang it up
This time baby you can hang it up
