Take It or Leave It Lyrics

Leave me alone
I'm in control
I'm in control
And girls lie too much
And boys act too tough
Enough is enough

Well, on the minds
Of other men
I know she was

I said, "Just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh, just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh, take it"

That's right

Oh, he's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
He's gonna break your back for a chance
He's gonna steal your friends if he can
He's gonna win someday

I fell off the track
Now I can't go back
I'm not like that

Boys lie too much
Girls act too tough
Enough is enough

Well on the minds
Of other girls
I know he was

I said, "Just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh, just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh, take it"

Oh that's right

Oh, he's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
He's gonna break your back for a chance
He's gonna steal your friends if he can
He's gonna win someday

Oh, he will

What is the Meaning of Take It or Leave It?

Step into the raw, edgy world crafted by The Strokes, where love and deceit lurk behind each shadowy corner. This track is a rebellious anthem of self-assertion amidst the chaos of relationships. It dives into the bittersweet truth of how both girls and boys play games of deception — girls can lie and boys can act tough, but there's a breaking point. The refrain "just take it or leave it" is a defiant ultimatum, a fearless proclamation of independence. With biting lyrics about betrayal and shattered trust, the song paints a vivid picture of heartache and resilience. Ultimately, it’s a call to embrace reality and stand strong in the face of inevitable disappointment.
