Strokes, The - Partners In Crime Lyrics
I forgot your jacket outdoors
Day's been something
See if I care
One; it's not okayish day, just so [?]
But yes, if you insist
Oh, alright, I know where tonight
Hey there, how goes it?
Any time they're closing?
Might need a lawyer
Let's all be honest
Where there's a forest
We don't belong
Life forgives you when you rebound
See, what friends locked up at the zoo
Why aren't we leaving town right now?
Oh, alright, I know where tonight
I'm on the guestlist
We got the door, but
Can't seem to find it
Pants on a tiger
Winter is white and
I won't be here buzzing
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well, leaving your tears alone
Run down your face
And escapes
Hey there, how goes it?
Any time they're closing?
You'll need a lawyer
Let's all be honest
We're in a forest
We don't belong
I'm on the guestlist
No need to welcome
Can't seem to find it
March to the war drum
Tigers have pants on
We have no gun
Thank you for staying
What are you saying?
I won't forget

Strokes, The Partners In Crime Comments
Tenia años de no escuchar este rolonón <3
even unpleasant feelings are essential to growth of a human being
Ajakajlammanmajjsjkjbwlhmzn...
I love the guitar solo bot it makes me sad because is the end of the song
Nick Valensi tone during the chorus + his solo at the end version japanese stylish anime are absolutely eargasm
For some reason, I think this song NEEDS to be in Stranger Things, even though it's not made in the right era
Innerprølix it could work
Baby Driver 2? Sounds like it would be an amazing car chase song
good drums
mother fuck king sick he plays with life.... don't give that away man to no one who don't deserve that Billie Jon ;)
Strokes is bestttt 😍
turururu turururu turururu uuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuu
love it
underrated
I think this song would have a lot more potential without the weird synths in the chorus (drowns out the other instruments) and if Julian projected his voice more in some of the verses. Otherwise great song. Love this album.
ronal regen meets Arnold swaggnegr
Esta canción me hace muy feliz :)
Phil Collins, Another Day in paradise
Mi pinche cancion favorita uwu
This is a halloween song.
Holy shit, memories from the comedown machine late 2013's :')
Another Day In Paradise
Why did I find this only now
looooooove Strokes!!!!!!!!!!!! come to Brazil again!!!!!!!!!
GOD that solo
esto es un pinche rolón UwU !!!
its sound like a second version of Someday.. (happy vibe song) oh and gratisfaction also.
Fab slays here
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so fucking beatiful
This song is perfectly well put together his voice is an instrument as always but on this track it's portrayed more as an instrument that's why you can't understand what he's saying unless you listen to every little detail
that "oh weeeeeeeeeeeellll, oh weeeeeeell" part is just so fucking AAAAAAHHHHH feeeeeeeeeeeeeels man, feels....
The first line, about the jacket, refers to having less of a façade.
The next one, about not caring, is just about not caring. Same as the next one. He's making a point though; That's why he says "one." And I don't know about the next line. Obviously agreeing with someone. Maybe about giving them their jacket? So maybe it's an actual jacket? I doubt it though.
The first line of the prechorus says everything is okay, and they know where to go. Maybe it's symbolic? Or maybe they're attending a party or something?
Chorus- The next one is saying that they're either a) at the party or b) less important. The second one is basically them being humble. The third line refers either to themselves needing a lawyer or someone else entirely.
I forgot the rest of the lyrics so I'll reply with more of my interpretation of them.
The next line is about befriending people or getting their attention or something. Maybe whomever the lyrics focus on is talking about themselves when they mention the jacket or pants on a tiger, and they're inauthentic or fake and want many friends.
That's also probably what the next one about being forgiven is about, I believe.
The one about friends at the zoo is about leaving your friends behind or something and treating them poorly. Or being incarcerated. Probably the latter. I don't know what I was thinking before.
The one about leaving town is about escaping jail? I don't know.
I already interpretted the prechorus and chorus.
Also, about having the door; They are holding it for others to go through, or helping people. Or maybe it signifies death, which is not so helpful. Well.
About not being able to find it. They mean the answer, or meaning of life perhaps. Maybe that's why they behave so poorly.
The one about not being there buzzing means either thinking or talking.
They are fighting the police, so they are marching to the war drum. Not a good perception, yes, but that's probably what that means.
The next line is about inauthenticity again.
In the next line, they are saying they have no weapons, metaphorically speaking. Basically they stink.
The next one must refer to a friend or lover not leaving them.
In the next two lines they are insulted and won't forget, I suppose.
reellibrarians
Adriano.
America is too free. Our information is too out in the open. We don't cover things up when we need to at all. Ha ha.
Kidding.
It's not necessary to point that out though.
@Cooper Smith bruh wut
intro i think is really bad, but the rest is just so good
I don't understand like 98% of the things Julian says but goddamn this song is such a bop.
He's trying to send us a message
It not that hard to interpret. It sound like they have a bad day with some ppl. So he said his friend not to feel too much about it and telling him to make some relief.
Chorus sounds halloweenish. Anyone else think the same?
+Rolling Wolfe yes its that wiggly instrument that goes along with the voice
+Bintr MagMorganorts a guitar haha
Rolling Wolfe ikr its sounds so haloween-spooky i love it
strange, when i put the link of this video on youtube to mp3 converter it says chances instead of partners in crimes and the same happens for the chances video
+Maria Bote Actually it is Partners In Crime but when you pirate Comedown Machine, Chances and Partners In Crime are switched.
I thought that was the shitty torrent I donwloaded from
0:18 Ei pappatacio cerchi la dose?
ajaahahahhahaahha
When he starts to sing I remember of Another day in paradise - Phill Collins
@Gabriel Carlos I was thinking the same the last time that i heard this song
Gabriel Carlos i was too late lol i was going to post this
Gabriel Carlos I was just listening to that song for the first time and I thought the intro sounded familiar.
Me and my Best friends Song 😉
I can't be the only one who thinks this sounds like a Killers song.
ur the only one now bye
@sharma underrated comment
"Life forgives you when you rebound."
Love the heck outta that line. One of the best songs on the album to boot.
The "pants on a tiger" part also is probably saying people are fake or something. That's my interpretation. A lot of people aren't authentic to who they are.
That actually makes sense. Like he's saying wild animals pretend to be civilized. "tigers have pants on"
+Tre' Jones Yes. I agree.
Alternatively: Drugs.
I know this is several years late, but I figure I'd reply with my two cents. Judging by the title of the song and the seemingly non sequitur lines in it I've always taken this as a pair, or group of criminals right before a heist. And the seemingly silly lines are them communicating by code words to not let anyone in on what they're doing.
So in this case "tigers with pants on" could be referring to undercover police being spotted or something of the like. A danger that is dressed as a regular person.
This way of looking at the song makes it much more fun to listen to.
Phoenix?
@MrKit Kat it totally sounds like phoenix!
Tgood song
OMG , i love this song
So adictive this song¡ jajaja
Lataman? eres tu?
THE AMOUNT OF TIME IVE SPENT LOOKING FOR THIS SONG. LOL FINALLY
dqueenn more epic but now that you mention it yes hahaha
For me this is the best song of the album!
Love Love
Can you please spell correctly?
the strokes nevah dissappinte
LOL hahahah
I also downloaded a version of the album where the names were mixed up, it also stated that 50/50 was 80s Comedown Machine
Best track on the new album, IMO.
This is the third song on this album where they mention a gun... I think The Strokes have gotten away with murder.. I think they killed the competition.. someone call the New York City cops...
Allan Fernandez But they are not so smart
I haven't listened to this song but I bet its 50/50.
Gotta be honest the opening guitar riff is annoying as fuck
this album is going to inspire me to check out their old stuff, for sure!
Masters
So good to hear them having fun making music. The feel between CM and Angles is crazy.
I was prepared for this since angles.
Im just in love of the strokes, their will never let me down.
Thanks for checking it out mate!
Thank you so much. I was looking for the lyrics to this song and was SOOO lost.
So sick of reading how fans are so disappointed that this isn't a Is This it sequel. The band has grown and I love the different direction of each of their albums. Quit your bitching, please.
The lost woods!
its titled 'chances' on the vinyl lol
thanks !
have you heard their first albums?? they are alot better in my opinion. not putting this album down, its just that This Is It and Room On Fire are the perfrect albums
i cannot tell a lie....ive never bought a strokes album...but im loving the 7 songs ive heard from this one so far....so, it looks like im gonna be buying my first ever strokes album!!
I love the bit from 2:08 - 2:20
hermosa hermosaaa!!! que hermoso discoo!! estoy teniendo un multiorgasmo musical con este disco
Me encanta el tema, a la melodía le encuentro un pequeño parecido a Another in Paradise de Phil Collins
Buena canción. Buen trabajo Strokes.
This song is so fun to play on bass dude!
Your profile picture.
I like it.
not really now that the official record is out this is really partners in crime
Dat ending.... man..
The title is right. I understand the confusion, I though that "Partners in crime" was "Chances" because there was a weird mix up at first, they basically gave the wrong title to these songs. You can understand that i am right if you here "Chances", it says "I take my chances alone". I hope I cleared this up for you.
I want to run thru time and space with this on.
The last part of the song is indeed nice. it's unexpected and exciting/surprising. Cool song.
this must be the third or fourth single. top 3 of the album, no doubt.
This song has a great ending!! Seriously the last 15 seconds is the best part of the song!
Best song on the album
loving this
I found my new driving song!
This song makes me wanna dance yeeeeah!
IT ISSS. YOU FUCKING IDIOT go and listen to the stream in pitchfork and by the way i havce the vinyl so fuck off
just to clarify. this IS Partners in Crime. The title of this video is most definitely accurate
Theres a lot of videos like this, where they are wrong with the titles, this is NOT partners in crime.
Fucking amazing!
