Out Of The Game - Spotify Interview
Out of the Game
It came to me through exhaustion
Seeing these young people today
Doing all that they have to do for, you know
Five seconds on, you know, YouTube
When I started out in the business
I jumped through a lot of hoops
You know, and I would do things that had to be done
But I was pretty dead set on having it be about the music
And, and, and not so much about the image
Though, I did create an image
And the older I got, the more exhausting the whole concept becomes
I mean my favourite line from that song is um
"Wearing something from God knows where"
But then of course the third verse says you know
"Come over here, let me smell for you one last time
Before you go out there and ruin all the world, once mine"
It's tinged with envy as well you know
'Cause I'd like to be that aged kind and that silly and that kind of excited about idiotic things
I think it's a heartfelt complaint, I'm just tired
And I'm out of the game
It came to me through exhaustion
Seeing these young people today
Doing all that they have to do for, you know
Five seconds on, you know, YouTube
When I started out in the business
I jumped through a lot of hoops
You know, and I would do things that had to be done
But I was pretty dead set on having it be about the music
And, and, and not so much about the image
Though, I did create an image
And the older I got, the more exhausting the whole concept becomes
I mean my favourite line from that song is um
"Wearing something from God knows where"
But then of course the third verse says you know
"Come over here, let me smell for you one last time
Before you go out there and ruin all the world, once mine"
It's tinged with envy as well you know
'Cause I'd like to be that aged kind and that silly and that kind of excited about idiotic things
I think it's a heartfelt complaint, I'm just tired
And I'm out of the game
