Take Me Out
Franz Ferdinand
3:58Well, it was my finest hour, yes, it was (a-ha!) I was the last of the believers in the cause (a-ha!) They tried to sell me Jacob's glory and the answers to the story And the rhythm of the laughable applause So I buried my belief and rode the train (a-ha!) I sang, "Your lover is a liar" in the rain (a-ha!) And though a man, he has to eat, he's always drowning in defeat Only a fool would think the world is round anyway Put your money right where your mouth is Don't go deaf or blind just to find this One plus one don't equal an answer Rhythm doesn't make you a dancer Well, it was a message in the Herald-Tribune (a-ha!) About a house of misrepute they couldn't ruin (a-ha!) And though the medicine they chose was dedicated to the rose It sucked the life from this ridiculous cartoon So I made some old excuse and I declined (a-ha!) To be a joker and a poacher of the mind (a-ha!) And through the window in the gate, I spied the dagger on the plate Then I left every desperate one of them behind Put your money right where your mouth is Don't go deaf or blind just to find this One plus one don't equal an answer Rhythm doesn't make you a dancer (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) Put your money right where your mouth is Don't go deaf or blind just to find this One plus one don't equal an answer Rhythm doesn't make you a dancer Feel the fever burn down the headlines (feel the fever) Everybody loses it sometimes (burn the headlines) One plus one don't equal an answer (everybody) Rhythm doesn't make you a dancer (loses sometimes) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh) (Eh-oh, eh-oh, eh-oh)
