Call It Fate, Call It Karma Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Close the door
Not all the way
He don't understand
We don't understand
So don't you wanna remind me
I don't know a thing
And some of us remember
And some run out of place
[Chorus]
Can I waste all your time here on the sidewalk?
Can I stand in your light just for a while?
I've waited around to wait in a room
Having a hard time watching you
[Verse 2]
You got it down now, don't you?
I wanted to understand your face
So don't you wanna remind me
I don't know a thing
And some of us remember
And some run out of place
[Chorus]
Can I waste all your time here on the sidewalk?
Can I stand in your light just for a while?
I've waited around to wait in a room
Having a hard time watchin' you (Watchin' you)
Close the door
Not all the way
He don't understand
We don't understand
So don't you wanna remind me
I don't know a thing
And some of us remember
And some run out of place
[Chorus]
Can I waste all your time here on the sidewalk?
Can I stand in your light just for a while?
I've waited around to wait in a room
Having a hard time watching you
[Verse 2]
You got it down now, don't you?
I wanted to understand your face
So don't you wanna remind me
I don't know a thing
And some of us remember
And some run out of place
[Chorus]
Can I waste all your time here on the sidewalk?
Can I stand in your light just for a while?
I've waited around to wait in a room
Having a hard time watchin' you (Watchin' you)
[Outro]
I needed someone
I needed someone
I needed someone
I needed someone

Genius Annotation
The last track off Comedown Machine.
Discussing the recording process with Zane Lowe, bassist Nikolai Fraiture said:
We got off tour and we had these songs, some left over and some new. We rehearsed in Electric Lady and it was working so we went with it. It was touch-and-go for a while but we…hashed it out all together like the good old days. It’s a legendary studio and it is not far away from us all, apart from Nick who lives in Los Angeles, but he made the trip out to record.
Julian Casablancas recorded his parts together with the rest of the band, a change from his deliberate self-removal during recording sessions for Angles.
