Lyrics of No Choice by Tame Impala
chorus
It doesn′t matter if I want to go somewhere new
At the end of the day, I have no choice
It wouldn't matter that I had to break it with you
Going over and over brings no joy
It doesn′t matter if I want to go somewhere new
At the end of the day, I have no choice
And if you're telling me that I've got so much to lose
All the talking about it, it′s all noise
hook
Nice and short
There must be something more
Life′s a chore
What are we living for?
verse
Let it out
I can see it now
Tryin' to hold it down
I feel it now
bridge
All the constants in your future bore you
Kinda makes your mind up for you
Knowing just what lies before you
Gives you no surprise
chorus
It doesn′t matter if I want to go somewhere new
At the end of the day, I have no choice
It wouldn't matter that I had to break it with you
Going over and over brings no joy
outro
Nice and short
There must be something more
Life′s a chore
What are we living for?
