Bloc Party - Price of gas
Tekst :
I ve been driving, a mid sized car,
I never hurt anyone
Is that a fact?
The price of gas keeps on rising
Nothing comes for free
Make like a stone, make like a plant
I can tell you, how this ends
We re going to win this
With spades and truncheons, guns and trowels
That is how the war will be won
Just swat the fly
Taking care of cars and bodies
Nothing ever comes for me
The ghosts are here, red white and blue
I can tell you how this ends
We re going to win this
Bloc Party - Observatory
Tekst :
She was married to somebody else
I was lonely and lived by myself
Baby, that s a battle you can t win
So we met and we started the clock
Did that help -- no it did not
But I guess I knew that going in
And watched the sweeping second hand
But at least I was calm
On the road to the big observatory
Where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story
And we stumbled upon
A room where a luminous moon was waning
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
But at least I was calm
Fun is fun, but when push comes to shove
When it s done, we ll deny it was love
She will say Jim -- this was a mistake
And the room where we looked at the sky
Will be there with its telescope eye
Just another sentry kept awake
Watching over silverlake
But at least I was calm
On the road to the big observatory
Where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story
And we stumbled upon
A room where a luminous moon was waning
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
But at least I was calm
And you ll be glad to leave with dignity intact
She won t be sad so much as matter-of-fact
Like it was doomed and hopeless as a suicide pact
But at least I was calm
On the road to the big observatory
Where the planets were hung
And the stars swung around the second story
And we stumbled upon
A room where a luminous moon was waning
And I knew I had leapt into the great beyond
But at least I was calm
Yeah, at least I managed to stay calm
Bloc Party - Selfish son
Tekst :
I took it too far, I took it too far again
Cut me down
I took it too far, I took it too far again
On the Lower East Side
I took it too far, I took it too far again
Night bleeds into day
I took it too far, I took it too far again
I nearly lost you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you, my love
Typical me, typical Libra
Spit the dummy
Typical me, typical Libra
The grass is always green
This city is raised on borrowed time
Taxi meters, police sirens
This city is raised on borrowed time
I nearly lost you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you, my love
Selfish son
Selfish brother
Selfish ?
Selfish lover
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you
I can be cruel, I can be cruel
To you, my love
