Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Will I drive out in the night?
Never come back in a mighty fright
Stay out longer while I can
Picking fossils in the sand
I admire all the games
Another asshole lights the flame
Rusted clotheslines in the sun
Noise control, I've sunken out
With smile, the greatest written smile
No one to complain
Written in chrome and gore it's all the same
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Ah ooh)
[Verse 2]
All I ever wanted was a piece to myself
All I ever want was a nine to five
People hide what they feel inside
So they'll cover it up till it's grey and dry
A pussy is a piece of skin wrapped in a pocket
All the king's men fell down on their knees
Raised their arms to the leader outside
Praising the devil they said (Hell fuck yeah)
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Ah ooh)
[Bridge]
I can't fight it, I can't hide
Will you take me over?
Little devil run around inside
Will you take me under?
I can't breathe if I cannot see
I can't see if I can't breathe
[Verse 3]
All I ever wanted was an afternoon
A middle class and an open sky
They rushed in the square with the paper alight
They pushed down a statue and spat on its side
A feeling is a piece of skin wrapped in a pocket
All the king's men fell down on their knees
Raised their arms to a leader outside
Praising the devil they said (Hell fuck yeah)
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Ah ooh)
[Bridge]
I can't fight it I can't hide
Will you take me over?
Little devil run around inside
Will you take me under?
I can't breathe if I cannot see
I can't see if I can't breathe
[Outro]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Fuck yeah
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
