Love's Not a Competition (But I'm Winning) - Kaiser Chiefs



I won't be the one to disappoint you anymore,
I know, I've said all this and that you've heard
It all before,
The trick is getting you to think that all this was your idea.
And that this was everything you've ever wanted out of here,
Love's not a competition but I'm winning.
I'm not sure what's truly altruistic anymore,
When every good thing that I do is listed and you're keeping score,
Love's not a competition but I'm winning
Love's not a competition but I'm winning
At least I thought I was but there's no way of knowing,
At least I thought I was but there's no way of knowing,
You know what it's like when you're new to the game but I'm not,
I won't be the one to disappoint you,
I won't be the one to disappoint you anymore

The Angry Mob - Kaiser Chiefs



I can prove anything
I'll make you admit again and again
I can prove anything
The way that it's read again and again

And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Its only cos you follow what the others do
Its no excuse to say your easily lead

You can choose anything
You choose to lose again and again
You could do anything
Why should you do anything again

And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Winding yourself up until your turning blue
Repeating everything that you've read

And here we go with the letter
Well can you fix it for me
Cos we need entertainment
To keep us all off the streets

So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed Instant Song Lyrics

You can try anything
And no-one would know apart from you and me
You can stop anything
It's starts with just one and turns to two then three

Its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Raise a glass or two
You raise a fist or two
Get a shopping basket wrapped round your head

So here we go with the letter
Oh can you fix it for me
24 hour drinking
To keep us all off the streets

So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed

We are the angry mob
We read the papers everyday day
We like who like
We hate who we hate
But we're also easily swayed

Oh My God - Kaiser Chiefs



Time on your side that will never render
The most beautiful thing you can ever spend
But you work in a shirt with your nametag on it
Drifting apart like a plate tectonic

It don't matter to me
Cause all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

To much time spent dragging the past up
If I didn't see you not looking what I messed up
Settling down in your early twenties
Sucked more blood than a backstreet dentist

It don't matter to me
Cause all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

Oh my god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home (x4)

Red shirts looking for greater glory
The only thing growing is on this story
Knock me down I'll get right back up again
Come back stronger than a poweredup pacman

It don't matter to me
Cause all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

Oh my god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home (x4)

Oh my god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home (x4)

Every Day I Love You Less And Less - Kaiser Chiefs



Everyday I love you less and less
It's good to see that you’ve become obsessed
I got to get this message to the press
That Everyday I love you less and less

And Everyday I love you less and less
I’ve got to get this feeling off my chest
The doctor says all I need is some rest
Since Everyday I love you less and less

Unless unless
I know I feel it in my bones,
I’m sick I’m tired
Of staying in control
Oh yes I feel a rat apon the wheel
I got to know just not so much is real

Oh yes, I’m stressed
I’m sorry I digress
Depress, Digress
SOS

Oooooh and my parents love me
Oooooh and my girlfriend loves me
Oooooh

Everyday I love you less and less
I can't believe that me and you did sex
It makes me sick to think of you undress
Since everyday I love you less and less

And Everyday I love you less and less
You’re turning into something I detest
And everybody says you look a mess
Since everyday I love you less and less

Unless unless
I know I feel it in my bones,
I’m sick I’m tired
Of staying in control
Oh yes I feel a rat apon the wheel
I got to know just not so much is real

Oh yes, I’m stressed
I’m sorry I digress
Depress, Dedress
SOS

Oooooh and my parents love me
Oooooh and my girlfriend loves me
Oooooh they keep photos love me
Oooooh that's enough love for me
Oooooh

I Predict A Riot - Kaiser Chiefs



Watching the people get lairy
Is not very pretty I tell thee
Walking through town is quite scary
And not very sensible either
A friend of a friend he got beaten
He looked the wrong way at a policeman
Would never have happened to Smeaton
And old Leodiensian
La-ah-ah, la la lalala la
Ah-ah-ah, la la lalala la

I predict a riot, I predict a riot
I predict a riot, I predict a riot

I tried to get in my taxi
A man in a tracksuit attacked me
He said that he saw it before me
Wants to get things a bit gory
Girls run around with no clothes on
To borrow a pound for a condom
If it wasn't for chip fat, well they'd be frozen
They're not very sensible

La-ah-ah, la la lalala la
Ah-ah-ah, la la lalala la

I predict a riot, I predict a riot
I predict a riot, I predict a riot

And if there's anybody left in here
That doesn't want to be out there

Watching the people get lairy
Is not very pretty I tell thee
Walking through town is quite scary
And not very sensible

La-ah-ah, la la lalala la
Ah-ah-ah, la la lalala la

I predict a riot, I predict a riot
I predict a riot, I predict a riot

And if there's anybody left in here
That doesn't want to be out there

I predict a riot, I predict a riot
I predict a riot, I predict a riot

Everything Is Average Nowadays - Kaiser Chiefs



Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
Everyone would do it if they can
And everything is going down the pan
And everyone is following the craze
And everything is average

Now you say it's getting better
But I don't really see the signs
Said it is too different
You thought it would be suicide

Not much to believe in
Left up on a shelf
So get your coats we're leaving
We'll just do something else

Ohhhh Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
And everything is of no consequence
Cos everyone is sitting on the fence
And everything will always stay the same
Cos everything is average

Now you said you didn't mean it
You threw away the book of rules
You thought that we should read it
I wouldn't even know how to

Not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf
So get your coats we're leaving
We'll just do something else

All I need is a ball and a wall
Or a sledge and a hill in heavy weather
All I need is a ball and a wall
A sledge and a hill in heavy weather

Oh oh oh oh etc.

Not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf
So get your coats we're leaving
We'll just do something else

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
Everyone would do it if they can
And everything is going down the pan
And everyone is following the craze
And everything is average nowadays

Ruby - Kaiser Chiefs



[Verse 1:]
Let it never be said
The Romance is dead
Cause there's so little else
Occupying my head

[Verse 2:]
There is nothing I need
except the function to breathe
But I'm not really fussed
Doesn't matter to me

[Chorus:]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya
Now what ya doing, doing, to me
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby

[Verse 3:]
Due to lack of interest
Tomorrow is canceled
Let the clocks be reset
And the pendulums held

[Verse 4:]
Cause there's nothing at all
Except the space in-between
Finding out what you're called
And repeating your name

[Chorus:]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya
Now what ya doing, doing, to me
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby

[Middle 8:]
Could it be, could it be
That you're joking with me
And you don't really see you and me [x2]

[Chorus:]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya
Now what ya doing, doing, to me
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya
Now what ya doing, doing, to me
