HOT CHIP LYRICS - Shake A Fist

"Shake A Fist"



I'm ready to try this

There's so much to see here

I could be wealthy

With nothing to stop me



I'm ready to try this

(I move underwater)

There's so much to see here

(I eat what I slaughter)

I could be wealthy

(Inside a moon and palace)

With nothing to stop me

(Let's raise another chalice)



Out and out and out

Out and out and out

Shake a fist

And let's breathe within without



You said if I tried this

(I'd be teleported)

But when you first tried this

(Your body contorted)

And if this is heaven

(I might have to tell you)

I'm gonna give hell, just

(A quick once over)



Out and out and out

Out and out and out

Shake a fist

And let's breathe within without



"Before we go any further

I'd like to show you all a game I made up

This game is called 'Sounds of the Studio'

And it can be played with any record

Including this one. You may be surprised!

Now if you have a pair of headphones

You better get 'em out and get 'em cranked up

'Cause they're really gonna help you"



That's a pure solution

That's my magic potion

That's the incantation



Out and out and out

Out and out and out

Shake a fist

And let's breathe within without



You said if I tried this

(I'd be teleported)

But when you first tried this

(Your body contorted)

And if this is heaven

(I might have to tell you)

I'm gonna give hell, just

(A quick once over)



I'm ready to try this

(I move underwater)

There's so much to see here

(I eat what I slaughter)

I could be wealthy

(Inside a moon and palace)

With nothing to stop me

(Let's raise another chalice)
