Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have It So Much Better (2005) by Franz Ferdinand (보컬) on maniadb.com

Some say you′re trouble, boy
Just because you like to destroy
All the things that bring the idiots joy
Well, what′s wrong with a little destruction?

And the Kunst won′t talk to you
Because you kissed St Rollox Adieu
Because you robbed a supermarket or two
Well, who gives a damn about the prophets of Tesco?

Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
Turn the rich into wine
Walk on the mean
For the fallen walk among us
Walk among us
Never judge us
Yeah we′re all...

Up now and get ′em, boy
Up now and get ′em, boy
Drink to the devil and death at the doctors

Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
Five thousand users fed today
As you feed us
Won′t you lead us
To be blessed

So we stole and drank Champagne
On the seventh seal you said you never feel pain
″I never feel pain, won′t you hit me again?″
″I need a bit of black and blue to be a rotation″

In my blood I feel the bubbles burst
There was a flash of fist, an eyebrow burst
You′ve a lazy laugh and a red white shirt
I fell to the floor fainting at the sight of blood

Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
Turn the rich into wine
Walk on the mean
Be they Magdalene or virgin you′ve already been
You′ve already been and we′ve already seen
That the fallen are the virtuous among us
Walk among us
Never judge us to be blessed

So I′m sorry if I ever resisted
I never had a doubt you ever existed
I only have a problem when people insist on
Taking their hate and placing it on your name

Some say you′re trouble, boy
Just because you like to destroy
You are the word, the word is ′destroy′
I break this bottle and think of you fondly
Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
To the whore in a hostel
Or the scum of a scheme
Turn the rich into wine
Walk on the mean
It′s not a jag in the arm
It′s a nail in the beam
On this barren Earth
You scatter your seed
Be they Magdalene or virgin
You′ve already been
Yeah, you′ve already been
We′ve already seen
That the fallen are the virtuous among us
Walk among us
If you judge us
We′re all damned

Yeah

It seems this boy's bathed in ridicule
Too forward, way too physical
It's time that I had another
I'm always wanting more, if there's another one
Give me some more, I'll have another one
I'll have a slice of your mother
This boy's quite spectacular
Not a boy, but a wealthy bachelor
I want a car
I want a car
I sees losers losing everywhere
If I lose it'll only the damn I give for another
I am complete, invincible
If I have one set principle
Then it's to stand on you, brother
This boy is so spectacular
Not a boy, but a wealthy bachelor
I want a car
I want a car
If I like cocaine, I'm racing you
For organic fresh Echinacea
One kick's as good as another
If I'm tired, I'm tired of telling you
I'm never tired, I'm always better than you
Bye-bye boy, run to your mother
This boy is so spectacular
Not a boy, but a wealthy bachelor
I want a car
I want a car

I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said 'I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver"
I love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear
And I am cold
Yes I'm cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away
Why don't you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
Why don't you walk away?
No quake will split the ground
Why don't you walk away?
The sun won't swallow the sky
Why don't you walk away?
Statues will not cry
Why don't you walk away?

I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye
I'm not cold
I am old
At least as old as you are
lalalalalal~~
As you walk away
And as you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood wind's a howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Radio 4 is static
As you walk away
The stab of stiletto
On a silent night
Stalin smiles
Hitler laughs
Churchill claps Mao Tse-Tung On the back

Words fall from my mouth
Like plates from shaking hands
Smash upon the silence
Of the smooth naked canal
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm a heathen and evil like you
There's not a lot
Not a lot I couldn't do

I like how you pretend
That the end will be the end
So fill your thirst
Drink a curse
To the death of death instead
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm a heathen and evil like you
There's not a lot
Not a lot I wouldn't do
Utrecht led me to the Sacre Coeur
Where the smoke curled round
Now the ice blows of Lake Michigan
When the ice blows
The ice flows knocks you down
Your teeth are black with wine
As you place those lips on mine
And the moon hangs heavy and forbidden high
On the night of our lives
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm a heathen and evil like you
There's not a lot
Not a lot we couldn't do
evil like you

Eleanor put those boots back on
Kick the heels into the Brooklyn dirt
I know it isn't dignified to run
But if you run
You can run to the Coney Island rollercoaster
Ride to the highest point
And leap across the filthy water
Leap until the Gulf Stream’s brought you down
I could be there when you land

So Eleanor take a Greenpoint three-point turn
Towards the hidden sun
You know you are so elegant when you run
Oh if you run
You can run to that statue with the dictionary
Climb to her fingernail and
Leap, yeah take an atmospheric leap
Let the jet stream set you down

I could be there when you land

So Eleanor put those boots back on
Put the boots back on and run
Come on over here

Well that was easy waiting
Everything's easy now
And the days are oh so normal
But oh, Hannah
How I miss you
Now
I used to lock myself in your bathroom
Swallowing the Codeine kept for your back
Numb, so numb
I'd let your words
Come and come

So come on
Kill me now
Kill me now
Kill me now
Because I’m leaving you now
That was easy, but how I miss you
That was easy, but I still miss you
That was easy, but how I miss you now
Now
I watched you clean the filth off your phone dial
Swallowing the things your finger picked up
Tongue, your tongue
I'd watch your tongue licking on
Eeuuw
So come
Come on tongue
Ah, come on tongue
Kill me now
Kill me now
Kill me now
As I'm leaving you now
That was easy, but how I miss you

As I took a step number four
Into the close of your tenement
You cast your darkened
eyes so low
Said we're cold
as the step cement
But I just don't know
Oh what you meant
what you meant
So Alec you may want a pill
We are so cruel to communicate
Without the red stuff
being spilled
We must MDMA our sentiment
But I just don't know
Oh what you meant
What You Meant

What You Meant
If we were feckless
we'd be fine
Sucking hard on our innocence
But we've been bright
in our decline
Been left as blackened filament
But I just don't know
Oh Oh I don't know
know I just don't know
know I just don't know
know I just don't know
know I just don't know
know I just don't know
Got your got your wait from
Got your got your wait from you

'Cause I feel blood
inside the vein
I feel life inside the ligament
I feel alive yeah just the same
Same vigour and the same intent
But I just don't know
oh if that's what you meant

The last message you sent
Said I looked really down
That I oughta come over
And talk about it
Well I wasn't down
I just wasn't smiling at you
As I look at us now it seems
That you're slapping my back
As if it's alright
But it's not

I'm trying to get up
But you're pushing me down
So I'll get up on my own

Now there's some grinning goon
On my TV screen
Telling us all that
It's alright because
She wears this and
He said that and
If you get some of these
It'll all be alright
Well I refuse
To be a cynical goon
Passing the masses
An easy answer
Because it won't be alright
Oh no it won't be alright
It won't be alright
Unless you get up
Come on and get up

Well I'm just a voice in your earpieces
Telling you no
It's not alright
You know you could have it so much better
You could have it so much better
If you tried

So far away
Come on I'll take you far away
Let's get away
Come on let's make a get away
Once you have loved someone this much
you doubt it could fade
despite how much you'd like it to
God how you'd like it
you'd like it to fade
Let's fade together
Let's fade forever
Let's fade together
Let's fade forever
Let's fade together

If we get away
You know we might just stay away
So stay awake
Why the hell should I stay awake
When you're far away
Oh god you are so far away
I looked your wall
Saw that old passport photograph
I look like I've just jumped
the Berlin Wall Berlin I love you
I'm starting to fade
Let's fade together
Let's fade forever
Let's fade together
Let's fade forever
Let's fade together
Let's fade forever
Let's fade together

We've seen some change
But we're still outsiders
If everybody's here
Then hell knows
We ride alone
I've seen some years
But you're still my Caesar
With everything I feel
I feel you've already been here
The only difference is all I see
is now all that I've seen
It's bright on the outside
The bright love the dark side
I know
it's obvious But sometimes
You just have to say it So
you don't feel so weak
About being such a freak
Or alone
In seventeen years
Will you still be Camille
Lee Miller Gala or whatever
You know what I mean
Love'll die Lovers fade
But you still remain there
Squeezing in your fingers
What it means for me to be
The only difference is what might be
is now what might have been
When you saw me sleeping
You thought I was dreaming of you
I didn't tell you
That the only dream
Is Valium for me

I've seen some years
But you're still my Caesar
With everything I feel
I feel you've already been here
Love'll die Lovers fade
But you still remain there
Squeezing in your fingers
What it means for me to be
The only difference is that
What might be is now
