"Dine N'Dash" lyrics
"Dine N'Dash"
Do what you will, you can leave when you want
Leave if you want but I bet that you won't
I see your problem and it's nothing to hide
Find any sailor with that look in his eye
Opening up but there's no one who really cares
Mistook the words of a wise man who once said
That birds of a feather die together
We could never afford it
We would dine and dash
I would always go last
No one's gonna search me tonight
I would give you the easy way out
It's going great
I will not surrender
Something in my brain
I will not defend them
Lies you told today
Fighting for the future
Watch the witches burn
I cannot defend them
Permission to speak?
Permission to launch?
Permission to sit?
Permission to die?
I sit him down, I tie him up
I beat it out of him alright
I beat his brains out till they're on
The floor, until his family mourned
I'd shoot him now if he was here
I'd slit his throat from ear to ear
But I have sworn a life of peace
How can I reconcile this beast?
We could never afford it
So we dine and dash
I would always go last
No one's gonna search me tonight
I would give you the easy way out
We could never afford it
Oh, we'd dine and dash
I would always go last
No one's gonna search us tonight
I would give you the easy way out
Say, say what you want, it's fine
One at a time we're born
Nothing is off the table anymore
Life, life isn't what they taught
Ah shit, I'm out of ammo
One in a million for sure
Say, I think I'm prejudiced
'Cause I don't like your face
Over time I'll accept it though
I guess, you're just an animal
Is that okay? I know...
Say you want it, say you want it

Pulls you down

The Libertines - "Time For Heroes" Did you see the stylish kids in the riot
We were shovelled up like muck
Set the night on fire
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
You know I cherish you my love
But there's a rumour spread nasty...
