Barbarians - The Libertines

This one’s for your heart and for your mind

The melodies in 4/4 time

You get in right and it rings true

And now they’re coming out in droves

Out of the burrows to the shows

There’s nothing else to do

All I want is to scream out loud

And have it up with a mental crowd

Cause I believe somehow

The world’s fucked but it won’t get me down

Here’s to the thug you can’t cultivate

Working his scrubs by the prison gate

Your mum, your son in law and your lonely nights too

They boxed off your heart, you boxed out your mind

You collect your food in 4/4 time

To cope with your lonely life too

So great shakes to change the rhythm

Feed the monkey play the pipe

It’s a given, it’s a gibbon on your back

What will a better man do?

All I want is to scream out loud

And have it up with a mental crowd

Cause I believe, and how

All I want is to scream out loud

And have it up with a mental crowd

Cause I believe, somehow

The world’s fucked but it won’t get me down

I said, ah no

I said woo

And all your lonely nights too

All I want is to scream out loud

And have it up with a mental crowd

Cause I believe, and how

All I want is to scream out loud

And have it up with a mental crowd

Cause I believe, somehow

The world’s fucked but it won’t get me down

I said, ah no

Woo
