BLOC PARTY. LYRICS - Positive Tension

"Positive Tension"



He said you're just as boring as everyone else

When you tut and you moan

And you squeal and you squelch

He said that 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 use my teeth and my claws

She said I'm going use my teeth and my claws

She said I'm going 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

You cannot run or ever hide it away

Something glorious is about to happen

The reckoning



They go you're just as boring as everyone else

When you tut and you moan

And you squeal and you squelch

They go 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...



And you cannot hide or ever, ever escape

And you cannot hide or ever put it away

Something glorious is about to happen

The reckoning



They go...

They say...

They go...

They say...

They go...

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
