Autography Lyrics by The Starting Line

Based on a True Story

2005

The kids were shouting "Let us out!"
And their parents did
Then 2 years, then 3 years
Then show time and now they're making rock 'n' roll
Those kids are making progress now
They say "Hear us out!" in every town
They do it 1 mile by 1 mile at a time
Though it seems like every time I get a little bit closer
To what I want I land further away from where and when I was a little bit younger
If you still don't know how the cadence goes
We say:
This parade still marches on
Louder than it ever was
Right, left, right, c'mon
C'mon get up and just follow the tempo
Where streets filled with people
Sing on and on and on through the town
The beat goes on
The kids are yelling "Play the song
That I heard that once!
I don't know what it's called or how it goes
But it's all the same to me."
The girls are screaming "Let us in
Because we're what you want to solve all your problems for tonight
Because you're just so rock 'n' roll."
Though it seems like every time I get a little bit closer
To what I want I land further away from where and when I was a little bit younger
If you still don't know the way we roll
We go:
This parade still marches on
Louder than it ever was
Right, left, right, c'mon
C'mon get up and just follow the tempo
Where streets filled with people
They sing on and on and on through the town
The beat goes on
(Whoo)
Let's get back to tearing this place a new floor
Left, right, left, c'mon
C'mon get up and just follow the tempo
Streets filled with people
They sing on, on, they sing and on and on and on
The beat goes on
