[IDLES - Queens lyrics]

Covered in blood he was there for the taking
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
Dancing on the city walls we were breaking
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
Indigenous Children littered the streets
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
Contorted and wasted while we eat for free
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
Parading around some Buddhist temple
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
I saw a man sat doused in petrol
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
Caked in Vigour and colours of pride
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
The smell of victory blows my mind

QUEENS stop taking photos of yourself

I dream about burying you in a forest
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
If I were you i wouldn’t wait for the chorus
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
I’ve seen your face a thousand times
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
Ignorant smiles a mile wide
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
No one loves you i can tell
(YEH, YEAH yEH, YEAH)
As you spill your guts in personal hell

QUEENS stop taking photos of yourself
Stop taking photos of yourself

Well heaven knows who will help you now
So take some photos if you’re hanging ‘round
If I had my way you would see what for
You would see me waiting
From the Ocean floor

Well heaven knows who will help you now
So take some photos if you’re hanging ‘round
