Carl Barât, The Jackals - Victory Gin lyrics

This is not a song for lovers
It’s for a feeling that exists in everyone
Sometimes the feeling needs expression
Don’t let them think that they have
Got you on the run

We all get the sunshine
Piped in through the phone line
Direct from the greater mind
Stare into the fire through optical wires
Burned into our hearts from a greater mind

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

Look at everybody here
They might be dandies, rude boys
Aristos or queer
But when all is said and done
You can bet your bottom dollar they’re
Still dab hands with a gun

Shackled by wires prank calls and liars
Only your flesh and blood is real, my love

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

Deeper than shadows
Arrive when the light goes pulling her down
Into your mind blue lights and sirens
With bullets behind them it's getting rough
'Cause it's the time before revolution

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong

We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
