1.Banquet
Lyrics：Kele Okereke
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out, I working...
Why'd you feel, so underrated？
Why'd you feel, so negated？
Ha, ha
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning, into my soul
I wanted, to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning, into the light
She don't think straight
Na, na, na
She don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind, and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her, and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled
Turning away from the light, becoming adult
Turning, into my soul
I wanted, to bite not destroy, to feel her underneath
Turning, into the light
And if you feel (and if you feel)
A little left behind (a little left behind)
We will wait for you on the other side
And if you feel (and if you feel)
A little left behind (a little left behind)
We will wait for you on the other side
'Cause I'm on fire!
'cause you know I'm on fire when you come
'Cause you know I'm on fire!
'cause you know I'm on fire, so stub me out
'Cause I'm on fire! 'Cause I'm on fire!
'Cause I'm on fire! 'Cause I'm on fire!
2.Staying Fat
Lyrics：Kele Okereke／Gordon Moakes
I rely on (bitter cold)
I depend on (artic snow)
A pair of trainers (I've got mine)
Could make a God of the two of us (I want yours)
I exist on (apropos)
I insist on (arctic snow)
A change of clothing (will fill the void)
Could lift us into fidelity (will suck you in)
The sound keeps you hemmed to the past
The walls are coming in again
The streets grid alone from the door
You gotta spin the fucking treadle...
I rely on (bitter cold)
I depend on (arctic snow)
The manmade fibres (I've got mine)
That are the stuff of my birthright (I want yours)
I decide on (apropos)
I retreat from (arctic snow)
The dregs of discourse (will fill the void)
For a new world order (will suck you in)
The sound keeps you hemmed to the past
The walls are coming in again
The streets grid alone from the door
You gotta spin the fucking treadle...
In a pile of days between no oceans
All the kids are rioting
There's no art in a broken head
All the kids are staying fat
And I'm air-kissing, back-slapping
Check the body for valuables
It's called progress
Come on pilgrim sing to the pyres
It's called progress
If they want to kill themselves
Then buy them the gowns
It's called progress
Progress
3.She's Hearing Voices
Lyrics：Kele Okereke
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
She's hearing voices, call her
She's hearing voices, warn her
She just can't sleep, in her bed
She just can't sleep
She's falling down, the stairs
She's tearing out, her hair
She's screaming my name, in the night
To keep her warm
She got a red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Milk of amnesia!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
You moan, and I know that you want it
And you're nothing, nothing to write home about
Did the earth, did the earth not move？
She got a red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill
She got a red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Red pill, green pill
Milk of amnesia!
She's scared of the blacks
And she's scared of the Jews
She is walking around
She is yesterday's news
And she calls out my name
In the dead of the night
She is leaving my room
She is crying on her side
Walking on eggshells
Walking on glass
Burnt by the mirror
Burnt by the light
Feeling rejection, I'll burn down your house
Tearing down posters
I was never, never alive
4.The Marshalls Are Dead
Attention!
Unbelievers
Fashion victims
Opportunists
Blood sport
Cop killer
Don't trust art
Don't trust culture
Cancel your thoughts out forever
Milk it and strain it to residue
An insult that dilates forever
Passing from history that's made from arrangements
Of tannoys and cordons in symmetry
That cancel forever
Forever
Spring breaks in ranks and in boulevards
A country that grows us
But cannot contain us
A curse on your houses
Rivers run with your sons' blood
No case for extenuation
All the marshals are dead
5.The Answer
Lyrics：Kele Okereke／Gordon Moakes
Feeding the five thousand was not done with prayers alone
And it takes blood and guts and it takes devotion
And so tired of standing up and so tired of drawing breath
And it's your turn to take the map and it's your turn to drop
the soap
And...
We got pretty pretty boys sucking on a cola
Money to burn, money to burn, money to burn
We got rules to protect you
Isaac and Ishmael
The magazine says it's okay
Life as a billboard
And if you are the answer
We are going straight to hell
Grown in a parental fugue
Weight loss in self respect
Bomb, bomb, bomb us back together
A new way into a lost answer
If you could talk a little less
And you could talk a little less
And you could talk a little less
And you could talk a little less
6.Banquet(Dance Remix)
Lyrics：Kele Okereke
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel so underrated？
Why'd you feel so negated？
Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into the light
She don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled
Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into the light
And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side
'Cause I'm on fire
I'm on fire when you come
I'm on fire so stub me out
