  • Covered in blood
    He was there for the taking
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    Dancing on the city
    Walls we were breaking
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    Indigenous Children
    Littered the streets
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    Contorted and wasted
    While we eat for free
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    Parading around
    Some Buddhist temple
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    I saw a man
    Sat doused in petrol
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    Caked in Vigour
    And colours of pride
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    The smell of victory
    Blows my mind

    QUEENS
    Stop taking photos of yourself

    I dream about
    Burying you in a forest
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    If I were you
    I wouldn't wait for the chorus
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    I've seen your face
    A thousand times
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    Ignorant smiles
    A mile wide
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    No one loves you
    I can tell
    (YEH, YEAH / YEH, YEAH)
    As you spill your guts
    In personal hell

    QUEENS
    Stop taking photos of yourself
    Stop taking photos of yourself

    Well heaven knows
    Who will help you now
    So take some photos
    If you're hanging 'round
    If I had my way
    You would see what for
    You would see me waiting
    From the Ocean floor

    Well heaven knows
    Who will help you now
    So take some photos
    If you're hanging 'round
