Bloc Party Lyrics

"Positive Tension" lyrics


He said that you're just as boring as
everyone else
When you tut and you moan
And you squeal and you squelch
He said you're just as boring as
everyone else
Nothing ever happens

Things replace things
Days replace days
Things replace things

She said I'm going to use my teeth
and my claws
She said I'm going to use my teeth
and my claws
She said I'm going to use my teeth
and my breasts
I'm gonna make it happen
She said

Run run run run run run
And you cannot run or ever, ever
escape
And you cannot hide or ever run
away
Something glorious is about to
happen
The reckoning

They say you're just as boring as
everyone else
When you tut and you squeal
And you squeal and you squelch
They say you're just as boring as
everyone else
Stuck past timing
The fear and the yearning
The fear and the consumption
The fear and the yearning
It's gonna eat you alive
They go...

Run run run run run run
And you cannot hide or ever, put it
away
And you cannot run or ever, ever
escape
Something glorious is about to
happen
The reckoning

They go...
They say...

Why'd you have to get so hysterical?
Success, success, success is over
Why'd you have to get
So fucking useless

Play it cool boy
Play it cool
