The Outsiders Lyrics
We can walk in straight lines
We can't see quite right
We've lost the plot
And we can't get it back
So lets lose ourselves
Lets lose ourselves
Can you spot the English here?
Let's pick a fight on whomever we like
Cause we're never wrong
Nobody likes us
We don't care
So let's lose ourselves
let's lose ourselves
Can you spot the English here?
We can see it for real
But it doesn't make sense
we're the outsiders
We can see all this speech
come staggering out
and we can climbs its way
to the top of that cloud
I'm away with the fairies now
(x4)
This familiar environment
Gets my lungs confused
I breath in every particle
that you drive thru
that you drive thru
Well can you spot the English here?
We can see it for real
But it doesn't make sense
We're the outsiders
We can see all this speech
Come staggering out
And it can its way to the top
of that cloud
Oh I'm away with the fairies now
(x4)
We can't see quite right
We've lost the plot
And we can't get it back
So lets lose ourselves
Lets lose ourselves
Cause we're never wrong
Nobody likes us
We don't care
So let's lose ourselves
let's lose ourselves
But it doesn't make sense
we're the outsiders
We can see all this speech
come staggering out
and we can climbs its way
to the top of that cloud
(x4)
Gets my lungs confused
I breath in every particle
that you drive thru
that you drive thru
But it doesn't make sense
We're the outsiders
We can see all this speech
Come staggering out
And it can its way to the top
of that cloud
(x4)

I have a feeling this might be the next single, but don't quote me on that. It's a fan favourite, and I love it so I'd love to see them make a good vid for it.
I adore the way he sings " I'm away with the fairies now"... Beautiful
haha i love this song but i cant help but think it has some drug related issues.
I think the song is about the chav culture in Britain. The way I interupt it, the song has references to drugs, violence, rap/mc, gang territory. Also, I think it is trying to highlight that, although stereotypically, 'emo's' and 'goths' are the depressed subculture, 'chavs' can be just as unhappy, perhaps more so.
i think its more about when chavvy people go on holiday and give the british a bad name in other countries like greece and spain, through being loud drinking a lot and being rude. although it could be about binge drinking and loutish behaviour at weekends...
I was told "It's about being British in back-country America" by the lead singer.
