Franz Ferdinand – Audacious (Lyrics)

Written By: Alex Kapranos

Lyrics (Start at 0:13):

Oh, did you ever get the feeling that there’s something come undone
An unreeling in the seaming
The stitching gone
So you rip a little harder till that rip becomes a run
Feel the fabric of existence come unspun

Hey there, we don’t care
Could be standing way out where
You’re naked and freezing till you run
Freeze or run

But don’t stop feeling audacious
There’s no one to save us
So just carry on
And don’t go blaming the neighbours
You know they’re the same as us
We should just get on
Get on

With a plastic carrier bag in each hand
The rain fell low, so you were standing
Under the holly tree with exasperated feelings, and

Hey ho, you don’t know
Is it a joke?
No, I said no!
I’m serious
More serious than I’ve ever been
I’ve ever been

So don’t stop feeling audacious
There’s no one to save us
So just carry on
And don’t go blaming the neighbours
You know they’re the same as us
We should just get on
Get on

Did you ever get the feeling that your world has come undone
No revealing of a reason to carry on
When hey there… it’s there
Waiting just in there
Ready any time to come along
Along

So don’t stop feeling audacious
The unknown and the famous
They say just carry on
And, no, there’s just us to save us
Forget any favours
We should just get on
Get on with it
