What She Came For

I've got a question for ya
I've got a question for ya
Where'd you get your name from?
Where'd you get your name from?
I've got a question for you
Where do you see yourself in five minutes time?

With a life like that or a look like that
You make us all feel gauche
Like it's a smutty joke
But with a life like that or a root like that
You make us all just go la la la la

Whoa, look out
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
No question, no doubt
Whoa, look out
You're what she came for
Knows what she came for
No question, no doubt

Whoa
You're what she came for

I've got a question for ya
Another question for ya
Oh do you feel the, oh do you feel the pressure
Why you wearing what you're wearing?
Where will your life be gone in five minutes time?

So say something stupid
You know that you'd love to

Whoa, look out
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
No question, no doubt
Whoa look out
You're what she came for
Knows what she came for
No question, no doubt

You're what she came for
You're what she came for
You're what she came for

(Franz Ferdinand)

Walk Away

I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear
And I am cold
Yes, I'm cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away

Why don't you walk away?

Why don't you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
Why don't you walk away?
No quake will split the ground
Why don't you walk away?
The sun won't swallow the sky
Why don't you walk away?
Statues will not cry

Why don't you walk away?

I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye
I'm not cold
I am old
At least
As old as you are

As you walk away?

As you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood wind's a howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Radio Four is STATIC

As you walk away

The stab of stiletto
On a silent night
Stalin Smiles
Hitler laughs
Churchill claps
Mao Tse Tung
on the back

(Franz Ferdinand)

A Song For Sorry Angel

Sorry angel, désolé

I sent you to suicide, lover
I wasn't worth the pain
Without me, you decided, lover
On the voyage of the vain

Sorry angel, désolé

Was it some dark vertigo, lover?
Drawing you to pain
Drawing you to loneliness, lover
The voyage of the vain

Sorry angel, désolé

I tried everything, lover
It wasn't worth the strain
Fate led us onwards, lover
Remorseless in vain

Sorry angel, désolé

I sent you to suicide, lover
Opened up the vein
So you're an angel, lover
Forever in vain

(Franz Ferdinand & Jane Birkin)
