Viciously she sleeps,and walks along her lonely beat
She trips,falls,into it all
And I wish I'd bite my lip and crawl
Up,away,from you my little one
Oh,from you my little one
Don't come to close,you dont wanna see my ghost
Your rotten,but I'm betrayed,by you my sweetheart
And dont you think that you went too far?
Do you want to see my heart bleed?
For you,you and him,him and you
You know my heart bleeds
All of us,we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your skies
All of us,we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your-
I'm sorry that I let you go
I let you down,I let you down my dear
I always seem to play these games with you my dear
I always,I always
All of us,we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your skies
All of us,we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your skies
All of us,we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your skies
Dont come.too close
You dont wanna see my ghost
Your rotten but I'm betrayed,by you my sweetheart
She trips,falls,into it all
And I wish I'd bite my lip and crawl
Up,away,from you my little one
Oh,from you my little one
Your rotten,but I'm betrayed,by you my sweetheart
And dont you think that you went too far?
Do you want to see my heart bleed?
For you,you and him,him and you
You know my heart bleeds
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your skies
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your-
I let you down,I let you down my dear
I always seem to play these games with you my dear
I always,I always
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out,in the streets
Oh,we're gonna steal your skies
We're gonna walk all over your cars

These lines are missing in the lyrics.
"Oh my Julia, I'll never betray you my love Oh my Julia, I'll never, I'll never betray you my love"
A lot of people think it's Juliet but if you listen carefully enough, you'll hear Julia. Which then is a direct reference to a pivotal scene in George Orwell's 'Nineteen Eighty-Four', where the main character Winston declares that he will never betray Julia, but in the end, he does exactly that.
Just thought that added an interesting spin on the song. Thoughts?
I jut finished reading 1984 yesterday, and listened to this song by chance today... I logged in to see if anyone else had picked up on the 'Julia' connection... and maddie did! This song can only be about 1984, and hopefully it will make Kooks fans read it because it is a great book

This is one of my faves on the album too. I thought it was "oh we're gonna steal your skies" ? maybe i'm wrong....cos that doesn't really make sense does it...
i absoloutely love the lines:
''All of us,we're going out tonight We're gonna walk all over your cars The Kooks are out,in the streets Oh,we're gonna steal your skies'' because it's the most fun set of lines i've heard in a kooks song. it suits the kooks inside and out, going out, having fun, as a band. there is probably a deeper meaning for this but fuck that i like my analysis :)
Ace song :]
But yeah, like someone else said the chorus is about going out with your buddies, hence, "The Kooks are out..." because they'll make him feel better after a pint or two... or three... to mend his broken heart from his cheating girlfriend :]
But I wouldn't say they're the best brits out there like someone else said.
If Blur was still making good music [not the crap they are making now... And I don't mean the poppy stuff either... I mean good old alternative/shoegaze stuff] they would be owning them. But as of now, I gotta sat The Fratellis are doing a bit better. Not one song of theirs I don't like... 'cept maybe Henrietta... And now that The Verve is back, they are gonna be the pwnzors! Cuz The Verve, they are music.
My favorite song on the album. While a lot of it's ambiguous and a little conflicting to me, I'd say the chorus is about going out with your mates drinking - probably because your heart's bleeding - stealing signs, doing stupid things and having fun to get over things.
"Don't come too close, you don't wanna see my ghost" - seeing how he really is now instead of how he's trying to be in this new relationship? An amazing line anyway!
.. hm i hear it skies too
I hear skies! And I love love love this song!
Wat an awesome song!! Best lines 'Don't come too close, You don't wanna see my ghost!'...Like he don't want her to see who the real him is, or his past! Brilliant.
