Hectic Lyrics

To the multi-story car park with our friends
Drinking from a bottle of white lightning
On top of Marks and Sparks, roof running
Smoking, chronic, hectic

And it seems that
Nothing now will ever change
And it seems that
Were on our own again

And it seems that
Nothing now will ever change
And it seems that
Were on our own again

And it seems that
Nothing now will ever change
And it seems that
Were on our own again

We'll convene at mine 3pm to play Sega Megadrive
Golden Axe and Sonic, all day
"Never played It? I'll teach you
Can't hack it? I'll beat you"
That's Pendell making rhymes in the corner
With a litre of finest Scrumpy Jack
Whilst Pdex pumps out the latest big club track
We'll chip it to Justin's and hit his King Kong
Then we'll gather round the piano for a little sing song

Oh, if I could kidnap that feeling
The one that melts all fear's from your mind
I'd make no demands, no ransom

'Cause I'd never set it free
'Cause I'd never set it free

Oh, if I could kidnap that feeling
The one that melts all fear's from your mind
I'd make no demands, no ransom

'Cause I'd never set it free
'Cause I'd never set it free
'Cause I'd never set it free

All false Halcyon days
And Halcyon nights
Before we began to realise
That things aren't right

And it seems that
Nothing now will ever change
And it seems that
Were on our own again

And it seems that
Nothing now will ever change
And it seems that
Were on our own again

And it seems that
Nothing now will ever change
And it seems that
Were on our own again
On our own again
On our own again
On our own again

'On top of mark's and sparks' roof smoking chronic, hectic'

Oh and also, one of the chorus lines goes 'and it seems that we're all, all on our own aga-ain'

Can everyone calm it

Cover art for Hectic lyrics by Enter Shikari

the first verse is something to do with being in a park with your friends, which fits with the reference to drinking from a puddle of white lightening because thats a popular cheap cider that a lot of kids buy cause its so cheap and its part of british youth culture getting drunk in parks.

"and it seems like nothing now will ever change, and it seems like we're on our own again"

the speaking bit is something to do with sega megadrive and playing sonic all day, and making rhymes in the corner with a pint of the finest scrumpy jack, and the latest big club track. so hard to understand though.

this is definitely one of the best songs on the album though, such a great sound and the "we're o-o-on our own a-ga-ain" makes me shiver.

You have it wrong.

It's:

"To the multi story car park; With our friends Drinking from a bottle Of White Lightning ----dunno Smoking Chronic Hectic

We'll convene at mine 3PM to play Sega Megadrive Golden axe and sonic all day Never played it (I'll teach ya) Tried to hack it (I'll beat ya) Finest scrumpy jack Whilst PDEX pops out the lastest -something- Doing justice to the latest king kong. Come around the piano; for an old sing song.

The last part of Verse 1 is hard to understand.

"Can't hack it (I'll beat ya)" "Whilst PDEX pumps out the latest big club track" "We'll take it to Justin's and hit his King Kong then we'll gather round the piano for a little sing song"

Cover art for Hectic lyrics by Enter Shikari

So far I got:

[undecipherable] with my friends and drinking from a bottle of white lightning [undecipherable] roof running smoking chronic hectic

[Chorus:] (And it seems that) nothing now will ever change (And it seems that) we're o o on our own again x3

We'll convene at mine 3PM to play Sega Megadrive Golden Axe and Sonic all day Never Played It? (I'll Teach Ya) Can't Hack It? (I'll Beat Ya) [undecipherable] making rhymes in the corner with a litre of finest Scrumpy Jack, whilst PDEX bombs out the latest big club track we'll take it to Justin's and hit his King Kong and we'll gather round the piano for a little sing song

(Oh we're back again at that feeling, the one that melts off is from your mind, I make no demands, not a ransom) Cause I never set it free Cause I never set it free (Oh we're back again at that feeling, the one that melts off is from your mind, I make no demands, not a ransom) Cause I never set it free Cause I never set it free Cause I never set it free

All those halcyon days and halcyon nights, before we began to realise that this was right

[Chorus:] (And it seems that) nothing now will ever change (And it seems that) we're o o on our own again x3

"Whilst Pendell makes it rhyme in the corner with a litre of finest Scrumpy Jack"... not sure exactly about the rest of the line but it's 100% Pendell (friend of ES).

And Chris's part starts with "I wish I could kidnap that feeling..."

"Oh if I could kidnap that feeling..." actually.
