Cage The Elephant - James Brown lyrics
[Cage The Elephant - James Brown lyrics]
Ran around the corner fell asleep in the sun
You had to move into the shade
Before you fired the gun
You got a hunger for destruction
Needed someone to bleed
You sealed the deal before the dawn
You let your actions proceed
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Sooner or later, said
You know that it's true
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
You think you're so sly you tried to roll by
You played the safe side
You said "Will somebody take me down town?"
Another James Brown you made the same sound
You said "Will somebody write this down?"
Down
Fighting back, revenge
You've got you're face to the ground
You make excuses for the madness
You've been hanging around
You built a house up in the trees
So you could see everyone
You set the clock and had a run
You set the clock and had a run
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Sooner or later, said
You know that it's true
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
You think you're so sly you tried to roll by
You played the safe side
You said "Will somebody take me down town?"
Another James Brown you made the same sound
You said "Will somebody write this down?"
Down
(Down deep you're a saint, you're a sinner
You're a snake, you're a snake
You're a snake but down deep, down down deep
Oh, no, you're coming after me)
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Sooner or later, said
You know that it's true
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
You think you're so sly you tried to roll by
You played the safe side
You said "Will somebody take me down town?"
Another James Brown you made the same sound
You said "Will somebody write this down?"
Down
You had to move into the shade
Before you fired the gun
You got a hunger for destruction
Needed someone to bleed
You sealed the deal before the dawn
You let your actions proceed
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Sooner or later, said
You know that it's true
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
You think you're so sly you tried to roll by
You played the safe side
You said "Will somebody take me down town?"
Another James Brown you made the same sound
You said "Will somebody write this down?"
Down
Fighting back, revenge
You've got you're face to the ground
You make excuses for the madness
You've been hanging around
You built a house up in the trees
So you could see everyone
You set the clock and had a run
You set the clock and had a run
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
Sooner or later, said
You know that it's true
Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
You think you're so sly you tried to roll by

Some sunny day they're gonna come for you
