The Fallen

Franz Ferdinand

    Continues after the ad

    So they say you're troubled, 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
    'Cause you kissed St Rollox adieu
    'Cause you robbed a supermarket or two
    Well, who gives a damn about the prophets of Tesco?

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

    Well, the fallen are the virtuous 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?
    Well, five-thousand users fed today
    Oh, as you feed us, won't you lead us
    To be blessed?

    Continues after the ad

    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 felt bubbles burst
    There was a flash of fist, an eyebrow burst
    You've a lazy laugh and a red white shirt
    I fall to the floor, fainting at the sight of blood

    Did I see you in a limousine?
    Flinging out the fish and the unleavened?
    You 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

    La, la-la-la
    La, la-la-la
    La-la, la-la
    La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

    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, placing it on your name
    Some say you're troubled, boy
    Just because you like to destroy
    You are the word, the word is 'destroy'
    I break this bottle, think of you fondly

    Did I see you in a limousine?
    Flinging out the fish and the unleavened?
    To the whore in a hostel and 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 the barren Earth, you scatter your seed
    Be they Magdalene or virgin, you've already been
    You've already been, you've already seen
    That the one who, one who, one who, one who
    One who, one who, one who, one who
    Yeah, you've already been, you've already seen

    That the fallen are the virtuous among us
    Walk among us, oh, if you judge us
    We're all damned
