[IDLES - Colossus lyrics]

I was done in on the weekend
The weekend lasted twenty years
The world's best bulimic bartend
Tender, violent, and queer

Forgive me father, I have sinned
I've drained my body, full of pins
I've danced 'til dawn with splintered shins
Full of pins, full of pins

Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes

They laugh at me when I run
I waste away for fun i am my father's son
His shadow weighs a tonne

Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes


Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes

They laugh at me when I run
I waste away for fun i am my father's son
His shadow weighs a tonne

Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Forgive me father, I have sinned
I've drained my body, full of pins
I've danced till dawn with splintered shins
Full of pins, full of pins

Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Goes and it goes and it goes
Go, go, go, go, go, go

It's comin', it's comin'
It's comin', it's comin'
It's comin', it's comin'
It's comin', it's comin'

(One, two)
I don't want to be your man, your man
I (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't want to be
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Your man
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Your man
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'm like Stone Cold Steve Austin
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
I put homophobes in coffins
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm like Fred Astaire (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I dance like I don't care (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm like Ted DiBiase (I)
I win no matter what it costs me
(Don't want to be, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm like Evel Knievel (Your man)
I break bones for my people (Your man)
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm on my best behavior (I)
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
Like Jesus Christ, our savior
(Don't want to be, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm like Reggie Kray (Your man)
