Rilo Kiley - It's A Hit Lyrics

Send "It's A Hit" ringtone to your cell

Any chimp can play human for a day.

Use his opposable thumbs to iron his uniform

And run for office on election day

Fancy himself a real decision maker

And deploy more troops than salt in a shaker.

But it's a jungle when war is made,

And you'll panic and throw your own shit at the enemy.

The camera pulls back to reveal your true identity.

Look, it's a sheep in wolf's clothing.

A smoking gun holding ape.

Any asshole can open up a museum.

Put all of the things he loves on display

So everyone could see them.

The house, a car, a thoughtful wife

Ordinary moments in his ordinary life.

But if she breaks a smile, she'll give you away

'cause no one wants to pay to see your happiness.

No one wants to pay to see your day to day

And I'm not buying it either

But I'll try selling it anyway.

Any idiot can play Greek for a day

And join a sorority or write a tragedy

And articulating all that pain

And maybe you'll get paid.

But it's a sin when success complains,

And your writers block-it don't mean shit.

Just throw it against the wall and see what sticks.

Gotta write a hit

I think this is it.

It's a hit.

And if it's not,

Then it's a holiday for hanging

Yeah it's a holiday for hanging

Yeah it's a holiday for hanging

Yeah shoo-bop-shoo-bop my baby

Any fool can play executioner for a day,

And say with fingers pointed in both directions

'he went thataway',

It's only a switch or syringe,

Aww, exempt from eternal sins.

But you still wear a cross,

And you think you're gonna get in.

Ah, but the pardons never come from up-stairs.

They're always a moment too late,

But it's entertainment

Keep the crowd on their toes,

It's justice, we're safe.

It's not a hit, it's a holiday

Shoo-bop-shoo-bop my baby

It's a holiday for hanging, yeah

It's a holiday for hanging, yeah

It's a holiday for hanging, yeah

It's a holiday for hanging, yeah

I'm a holiday for hanging,

I'm a holiday for hanging,

I'm a holiday yeah

I'm a holiday for hanging,It's a holiday for hanging, yeah
