Florence Welch
Lean From The Middle
Hey
So you think that you're right and you're original?
So you think that you're tight?
But you're a typical cynical individual whimsical
To the take
But never give at all?
Your fucking miserable ways are going to kill us all!
But now I'm the cynic
And your best response to this shit is
Is this it?
In it I give a moral
You fucking bin it
Been there, done that
But sorry geez I live in it
Ans I understand the complexities within it
The whole thing is:
Do as I say not what I do
I don't think I care that much to follow through
So join the queue
Fuck that shit
I'll follow you

But don't you think that you're big because you're dependable!
Or is it something you like just being sensible
Constable cool!
Logic to the rule
Frowning aloud at the clowning around of a fool!
Life can be so damn fine
If you let loose a little
Pressure builds up inside
We must escape the middle
Escape through both extremes;
Deep dreams to hallucinogenic riddles
My way seeks no ways peace
Like I said
We all lean from the middle

(solo)

Life can be so damn fine
If you let loose a little
Pressure builds up inside
We must escape the middle
Escape through both extremes;
Deep dreams to hallucinogenic riddles
My way seeks no ways peace
Like I said
We all lean from the middle

Hey
Soul-searchers and Shadow-lurkers;
Two side of the white line
Giving the last respects to my city before it unwinds
Peoples
Who are trying to be better that equals put the pressure up
Battles
People shaking their rattles and putting flags up
The federals are
Cowards abusing the power for the people to wrack(?) up
But the people are wrapped up
But it's taking time for the people to stand up
Because time and time again
The people who are right are put in a round up
Their theories are bound up
So fuck my rights
I'm tearing the ground up!
The big and the bad
The bold, the best
They're taking control of the situation
Blunt knives will help you confess
You try to run and just like the rest...
They're taking their guns
Filling them with arms
And will a boom!
Taking out your chest

I'm making a statement
And paving my way through time
Rhymes are just a medium
Lives are on the line
If you relate the things that you see
To the things that you think
You might be overwhelmed by the stench of the city
Stink?
Supposedly our race is enlightened
By that alone
Shit!! I'm frightened
I double dare any fucker who wants to put that in writing!

The clouds are swelling
Thunderstorms are dwelling
Eletrical static tension's inventing lightening provisions
This is pre-superstition
They're day to day fucking vision
Ashok is for telling division
Resulting in blood collisions
What?
Ninety five open your eyes and realise
That people die and people live their lives living lies
But...
Life can be so damn fine
If you let loose a little
Pressure builds up inside
We must escape the middle
Escape through both extremes;
Deep dreams to hallucinogenic riddles
My way seeks no ways peace
Like I said
We all lean from the middle

Life can be so damn fine, oh!
If you let loose a little
Pressure builds up inside
We must escape the middle
Escape through both extremes;
Deep dreams to hallucinogenic riddles
My way seeks no ways peace
Like I said
We all lean from the middle
