Franz Ferdinand (2004)

So if you’re lonely, you know I’m here waiting for you I’m just a crosshair, I’m just a shot away from you. Take Me Out

Eyes boring a way through me Paralyse, controlling completely Now there is a fire in me A fire that burns. This Fire

This is where I’ll be, so heavenly So come and dance with me, Michael So sexy, I’m sexy So come and dance with me, Michael I’m all that you see, you want to see. Michael

You take your white finger Slide the nail under the top and bottom buttons of My blazer Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties and I’m. The Dark of the Matinée

And if you leave here, you leave me broken, shattered I lie I’m just a crosshair, I’m just a shot, then we can die. Take Me Out

This fire is out of control We’re going to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We’re going to burn it, I’ll burn it, I, I, I’ll burn it down. This Fire

Michael, you’re the boy with all the leather hips Sticky hair, sticky hips, stubble on my sticky lips. Michael

Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files You must follow, leave this academic factory. The Dark of the Matinée

I say, don’t you know? You say you don’t know I say: take me out If I wane, this could die, I wait this, could die I want you to take me out. Take Me Out

Eyes burning a way through me Overwhelm, destroying so sweetly Now there is a fire in me A fire that burns. This Fire

Michael, you’re the only one I’d ever want Only one I’d ever want, only one I’d ever want. Michael

I time every journey To bump into you accidentally, I charm you and tell you Of the boys I hate, all the girls I hate, all the words I hate All the clothes I hate, how I’ll never be anything I hate. The Dark of the Matinée

Did I see you in a limousine? Flinging out the fish and the unleavened? Turn the rich into wine as you walk on the mean. The Fallen

Well do you Do you Do you want to Well do you Do you Do you want to Want to go where I’d never let you before. Do You Want To

No buildings will fall down Don’t you walk away No quake will split the ground Won’t you walk away. Walk Away

Oh, if you run, you can run to that statue with the dictionary Climb to her fingernail and leap Yeah, take an atmospheric leap And let the jet stream set you down. Eleanor Put Your Boots On

Well, the fallen are the virtuous among us Walk among us, never judge us Yeah, we’re all. The Fallen

Well he’s a friend and he’s so proud of you He’s a friend and I knew him before you He’s a friend and we’re so proud of you Your famous friend and I blew him before you. Do You Want To
