Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

(Da da daaa, da da daaa
Da da daaa, da da daaa)

Let it never be said
That romance is dead
'Cause there's so little else
Occupying my head
There is nothing I need
Except the function to breathe
But I'm not really fussed
Doesn't matter to me

(Chorus)
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
(Ahaa-ahaa-aaaa)
Do you, do you, do you, do you?
(Ahaa-ahaa-aaaa)
Know what you're doing (doing) to me?
(Ahaa-ahaa-aaaa)
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
(Ahaa-ahaa-aaaa)

Due to lack of interest
Tomorrow is cancelled
Let the clocks be reset
And the pendulums held
'Cause there's nothing at all
Except the space in between
Finding out what you're called
And repeating your name

(Chorus)

Could it be, could it be that you're joking with me
And you don't really see you and me
Could it be, could it be that you're joking with me
And you don't really see you with me

(Chorus)

Do you, do you, do you, do you?
(Ahaa-ahaa-aaaa) (da da da, da da da)
Know what you're doing (doing) to me?
(Ahaa-ahaa-aaaa, aaaa) (da da da)

The Angry Mob (04:48)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

I can prove anything
I'll make you admit, again and again
That I can prove anything
The way that it's writ, again and again
And it's only 'cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
It's only 'cos you follow what the others do
It's no excuse to say you're easily led

You could choose anything
And you choose to lose, again and again
And you could do anything
But why should you do anything again
And it's only 'cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
You're winding yourself up until you're turning blue
Repeating everything that you read

So here we go with a letter
Can you fix it for me?
Because we need entertainment
To keep us all off the streets

So tonight you'll sleep softly in your beds

You could try anything
And no one would know apart from you and me
You could stop anything
It starts with just one and turns to two then three
And it's only 'cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
You'll raise a glass until you raise a fist or two
And get a shopping basket wrapped round your head

So here we go with a letter
Can you fix it for me?
For twenty-four hours drinking
To keep us all off the streets

So tonight you'll sleep softly in your beds

We are the angry mob
We read the papers every day
We like who we like
We hate who we hate
But we're also easily swayed
''(Repeat 8x)''

We are the angry mob

Heat Dies Down (03:56)

Più info

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

I can just imagine you and me
Running out of steam
Going through the motions
And I have no idea how you know
When I dip my toes
In other people's oceans

'Cos you had a local knowledge of the local area
And that impressed me quite
So I tried that night
To do all the things i thought you'd like
But that just made it worse
And I impressed you not
Well not a lot
So we started from the start

When the heat dies down I'll be back in town
And until that time I'll be round at mine
When the heat dies down I'll be back in town
And until that time I'll be round at mine

When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down

I cannot imagine growing old
To have and to hold
Till death do part each other
'Cos I doubt I could stomach twenty years
Spending time at hers
Talking to that mother

'Cos I got a wider knowledge of the world I just can't face
Another argument
About the rent
It all seems unimportant in the grander scheme of things
'Cause I was purpose built
To not feel guilt
So we ended at the end

When the heat dies down I'll be back in town
And until that time I'll be round at mine
When the heat dies down I'll be back in town
And until that time I'll be round at mine

When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down

When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down
When the heat dies down

Highroyds (03:19)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

I remember nights out when we were young
They weren't very good they were rubbish
Running round Highroyds isn't fun
Just teenagers testing their courage

Standing outside nightclubs in the snow
Us not very cool or impressive
They let in all the girls from the year below
No need for ID's with those dresses

Got news from afar
From a girl who knows who we are
She's still got my dinner money
She can keep it

Never had a fight that we haven't lost
Not very tough or athletic
Once I had a boxing champ in a headlock
When he gets out I'll regret it

Got keys to a car
Picked up a girl from Boston Spa
For fast food and cinema
It's not worth it

Got word from down south
Well he had heard about it word of mouth
Haven't much stayed in touch
Since Highroyds

Let it go and let it go
And if I'm wrong then I won't know
Cos no one's gonna tell me but a friend
He has gone and Ian's gone
And everybody went along
And nobody was left here in the end

Got news from Uncle Hugh
Through a second cousin once removed
Too late there's a housing estate
It's called Highroyds

Got a text from an ex
She wants to know when we're in London next
"And will you write a song about me?"
I don't think so

I Can Do It Without You (03:24)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

None of the buildings even look the same,
And underneath them all the shops have changed.
I don't pretend they're in a lot more pain,
Stocking much too young for the professionals to stay in.

I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.

I'm in tunnel to the north again
Everybody has to talk on the train.
And if you've got nothing thats clever to say,
Nobody's listening to you anyway.

'Cos I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
But it wouldn't be very good.

La la la, la la la la la la la la la, etc.

What you want here?
It doesn't matter!
I don't think that it can be done without you.
What you doing?
It doesn't matter!
But everything that's done is all about you

We convince each other nothing has changed
Nobody else will ever write the same
We're out of ?? thought the stage is not blame
For your protection all the names have been changed

I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
But it wouldn't be very good.

My Kind of Guy (04:06)

Più info

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

Well it starts as a joke
Like a stick in your spokes
Or removing the bolt of the brakes

Then the bicycle flips
Crushing ribs smashing hips
And he broke every bone in his face

Now you're out of control
And you can't fill the hole
That was left by the thrill of the chase
You're a right piece of work
All the flakes go berserk
Have you forgotten how good they taste

You're my kind of guy
'Cos I like your style
And you sound as horrible as me
And I don't mind if you're unkind
'Cos you're reminding me of me

As the bicycle race
Gathers speed, gathers pace
And you feel that you're going too fast
Theres a word to the wise
You should take some advice
'Cos the nice guys always finish last

You're my kind of guy
'Cos I like your style
And you sound as horrible as me
And I don't mind if you're unkind
'Cos you're reminding me of me

You're my kind of guy
'Cos I like your style
And you sound as horrible as me
And heads will roll
As it takes its toll
On you and me...

Everything Is Average Nowadays (02:44)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
Everyone would do it if they can
And everything is going down the pan
And everyone is following the craze
And everything is average

Now you say it's getting better
But I don't really see the signs
Said it is too different
You thought it would be suicide

Not much to believe in
Left up on a shelf
So get your coats we're leaving
We'll just do something else

Ohhhh Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
And everything is of no consequence
Cos everyone is sitting on the fence
And everything will always stay the same
Cos everything is average

Now you said you didn't mean it
You threw away the book of rules
You thought that we should read it
I wouldn't even know how to

Not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf
So get your coats we're leaving
We'll just do something else

All I need is a ball and a wall
Or a sledge and a hill in heavy weather
All I need is a ball and a wall
A sledge and a hill in heavy weather

Oh oh oh oh etc.

Not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf
So get your coats we're leaving
We'll just do something else

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
Everyone would do it if they can
And everything is going down the pan
And everyone is following the craze
And everything is average nowadays

Learnt My Lesson Well (05:25)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

I'm just waiting for
The man to come with all my things
And i'm just waiting for
Another man to take it all

And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
And I'm just waiting for
The man to come and go away

What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
Its just seven days
Feels like a week

What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could be a nurse

It seems so sensible
For us to keep the purse strings tight
And move the decimals
A couple of places to the right

And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
It seems most sensible
But not exactly what we'd like

What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
Its just seven days
Feels like a week

What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Our life could be worse
You know, we all could be cursed

I Can't help feel like this
So don't rearrange it
I don't mean to be a dick
I just don't like the changes

I can not help the things I say
You know wouldn't to strangers
But I don't like going away
Cos it puts me in danger

I can tell you now
There ain't a problem can't be solved
With a good old fashioned row
So grit your teeth and stand your ground

And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
But I'm still waiting for
The man to come with all my things

What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
It's just seven days
Feels like a week

What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could leave in a hearse

Try Your Best (03:42)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

I can't do it any quicker,
I don't want it any slicker.
As far as the eye can see,
Is miles and miles of icy sea.

So try your best,
And think about it later.
Or you will never know.

I don't feel fear anymore,
But I can't risk getting bored.
As far as the ear can hear,
The wave is coming loud and clear.

So try your best,
And think about it later.
Or you will never know.

So try your best,
And think about it later.
Or you will never know,
Which way your life could go,
And you'll know when you know.

So try your best,
And think about it later.
Or you will never know,
which way your life could go,

Retirement (03:57)

Kaiser Chiefs • Yours Truly, Angry Mob

There are many things that I would be proud of
If I'd only invented them such as the wheel
The washing machine and the tumble dryer
On these inventions surely I could retire

I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And tell nobody why

There are many things that I know I could do
If I'd only have wanted to, such as create
The perfect soulmate everyone would admire
On this creation surely I could retire

I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And not to answer to why

I want to retire
Inform the suppliers
I'll leave the party in style
And not to be carried out
Without a cloud in the sky
I Got my fingers in pies
A Golden watch on my side
Will measure my free time

Now my place in History is surely assured
I will be remembered here forever more
Brand new product in place and a potential buyer
Up on this next transaction surely I could retire

I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And not to answer to why

I want to retire
Inform the suppliers
I'll leave the party in style
And not to be carried out
Without a cloud in the sky
I Got my fingers in pies
A Golden watch on my side
Will measure my free time
