Revenge Wears No Wristwatch Lyrics

Anger
Anger
Treats me hard
I tell her myself
I've heard it all before
I've had it up to here
Such a mess
I am

You say
Something's wrong
This kind of life style
Doesn't work
I'm trying something else
For a change
For a change
That's okay
Okay, okay

I've heard it all before
I've had it up to here
Such a shame
Such a shame
Such a shame

His voice reminds me of October.

great song.... has a nice little beat going on.

Wow, again, GREAT song! Another song that hits ya hard behind a nice beat. They have a way of hiding PAIN and other hard issues in life behind foot tapping beats. They do this better than anyone in the business and second only to Bob Marley, IMO. Anyway, this song is obviously just about two people going seperate ways. its obviously his fault since he is apologizing for his anger in the first line.

Great song.

I really like the guitar part to this song. Very retro, no?

Love that twangy guitar! Love "Such a Mess" lyric! Love that off-beat drumming on "Okay"! It seems to be about apologizing to his mood swings. Overall, the Walkmen remind me of Interpol.

contrary to danny, i think that he's telling her that it's fine to leave. when they fight, anger gets pulled out of him and from her. it pounds him into the ground and its rough. he's pooped. so she's fed up and wants to leave, well he's tired too. and all of it's a shame b/c he knows it could've been good, but she sucks too much to make it happen and work.

the main guitar is great, but what about that sparkly gut piercing accent sound that plays and swells in the juiciest moment right after the singing is done? what is that, a guitar? bells? bell sounds from a keyboard? it's driving me nuts. i must know.

I think this songs just talking about the impatience people have when they want vengeance and of course, the anger that makes them want vengeance in the first place
