[Intro]
You won't skip on ice
If you slipped on ice
Yeah, I should be there with you
Sorry, I forgot

[Verse 1]
Just run that race, little soldier
No one's gonna win any time soon
Just know your role, little soldier
Don't get left behind, right? Alright

[Bridge]
Okay, how we gonna do this?
Someone's gotta budge, so we can manoeuvre
Yeah, I wanna stay but I don't want to fight
Used to feel like we were doing alright
Then we got older, not good
Nobody does what they told you they would
Did what I should and what I was told
Kept my hopes high and my eyes half closed

[Verse 2]
They've got control of you, soldier
Put you in the field with a gun to shoot and kill 'em all
Just play your part, little soldier
Marchin' left, right, left, right

[Chorus]
I wanna walk like me, (Like me) I wanna talk like me (Like me)
I don't wanna (I don't wanna) be another, (Be another) no (No)
I wanna walk like me, (Like me) I wanna talk like me (Like me)
No, I don't wanna (I don't wanna) be another, (Be another) no (No)

[Verse 3]
Uninvited to the desert
The summer will be cold, yeah
Undecided but I'm never really even sure
But it's so tempting

[Chorus]
I wanna walk like me, (Like me) I wanna talk like me (Like me)
I don't wanna (I don't wanna) be another, (Be another) no (No)
I wanna walk like me, (Like me) I wanna talk like me (Like me)
No, I don't wanna (I don't wanna) be another, (Be another) no (No)

[Outro]
You won't skip on ice
If you slipped on ice
Yeah, I should be there with you
Sorry, I forgot

The Neighbourhood

Hailing from Newbury Park, California, upstart indie band The Neighbourhood finds its influences as diverse as hip-hop (where lead vocalist Jesse Rutherford had his musical beginnings) and the classic black and white aesthetic that often dominates their music videos and outfits. The current members are Jesse, Jeremy Freedman and Zach Abels (guitarists), Mikey Margott (bassist), and Brandon Fried (drummer). The Neighbourhood is often abbreviated to “The NBHD.” The band are easily recognisable by their signature upside-down house logo, which is tattooed on every band member.

With the release of the extended plays Thank You, and I’m Sorry…, the band accumulated a wide range of fandom appreciation.

Following the rising success of their hit single “Sweater Weather,” the band released their debut album in 2013 entitled I Love You. to a far wider popularity than that which preceded them. The band have also gained traction over the years by touring with artists like Travis Scott, Danny Brown, Imagine Dragons and Charli XCX.
