Losing My Edge - LCD Soundsystem

作词：James Murphy

Yeah I'm losing my edge

I'm losing my edge

The kids are coming up from behind

I'm losing my edge

I'm losing my edge to the kids from france

and from london

But I was there

I was there in １９６８

I was there at the first can show in cologne

I'm losing my edge

I'm losing my edge to the kids whose footsteps

I hear when they get on the decks

I'm losing my edge to the internet seekers

Who can tell me every member of

every good group from １９６２ to １９７８

I'm losing my edge I'm losing my edge

To all the kids in tokyo and berlin

Brooklynites in little jackets and borrowed

nostalgia for the unremembered eighties

But I'm losing my edge

I'm losing my edge but I was there

I was there

But I was there

I'm losing my edge

I'm losing my edge

I can hear the footsteps

every night on the decks

But I was there

I was there in １９７４ at the first suicide

Practices in a loft in new york city

I was working on the organ

sounds with much patience

I was there when captain beefheart

started up his first band

I told him don't do it that way

you'll never make a dime

I was there

I was the first guy playing daft

punk to the rock kids

I played it at cbgb's

Everybody thought I was crazy

We all know

I was there

I was there

I've never been wrong

I used to work in the record store

I had everything before anyone

I was there in the paradise garage

dj booth with larry levan

I was there in jamaica

during the great sound clashes

I woke up naked on the beach

in ibiza in １９８８

But I'm losing my edge to better-looking

people with better ideas and more talent

And they're actually really really nice

I'm losing my edge

I heard you have a compilation of

every good song ever done by anybody

Every great song by the beach boys

all the underground hits

All the modern lovers tracks

I heard you have a vinyl of every niagra

record on german import

I heard that you have a white label

of every seminal

Detroit techno hit １９８５ '８６ '８７

I heard that you have a CD compilation

of every good '６０s cut and

Another box set from the '７０s

I hear you're buying a synthesizer

and an arpeggiator

And are throwing your computer

out the window

Because you want to make something real

You want to make a yaz record

I hear that you and your band have sold

your guitars and bought turntables

I hear that you and your band have sold

your turntables and bought guitars

I hear everybody that you know is more

relevant than everybody that I know

But have you seen my records
