It's only 'cos you follow what the others do
It's no excuse to say you're easily lead
Riff 1
You can choose anything
You choose to lose again and again
Riff 1
You could do anything
But why should do anything again
Riff 2
Its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Riff 2
Winding yourself up until you're turning blue
Repeating everything that you've read
Ab Eb C#
So here we go with the letter:
Ab Eb C#
Well can you fix it for me
B Eb C#
Because we need entertainment
B
To keep us all off the streets
B C# Eb C# B
So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed

Riff 1
You could try anything
And no one would know apart from you me
Riff 1
And you could stop anything
It starts with just one and just a two and three
Riff 2
Its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Riff 2
You raise a glass or two, and raise a fist or two
And get a shopping basket wrapped round your head
Ab Eb C#
So here we go with the letter:
Ab Eb C#
Well can you fix it for me
B Eb C#
24 hour drinking
B
To keep us all off the streets
B C# Eb C# B
So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed

We are the angry mob
We read the papers everyday day
We like who like
We hate who we hate
But we're also easily swayed

| i think it's about condmening britain these days (especially younger people) , basically.... drinking all the time (24 hour drinking to keep us all off the streets), fighting on the streets (shopping basket qrapped round your head), going around in gangs (it's only cos you came here with your brothers too, if you came here on your own you'd be dead)... and generally being scum | |

| I think it refers to Ned/Chav culture in todays Britain. They do what they want, they are "easily swayed", papers like the Sun, the NOTW make them even more ignorant. They act like muppets and will play the hardman to impress their friends, but if their friends werent there to back them up, they would get the shit beaten out of them. | |

| Haha, yeah, kinda sounds like Britain. Oooh but this song is AWESOME. Kaiser Chefs must take tradition in making addictive songs, because every time this song ends I push the back button just like I did with "Oh My God." It's like drugs, seriously... | |

| So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed I dunno why, but when he sings this, it kinda reminds me of franz ferdinand and i think its about britain indeed and that people go along with the mob. "Repeating everything that you've read" not thinking anymore, just repeating | |
