(by Kaiser Chiefs)


I know cause I've seen it

It was grey and I want it

Theres no point in sitting 

Going crazy on my own

Do you know what 

I was put here in the world for

Could you tell me 

In three words or more 

It's the only way of getting out of here

It's the only way of getting out of here 


Take a lesson

From the ones who have been there

My brain is not damaged

But in need of some repair

Hold on to the basics

But we can't change all our tactics

Don't just sit there

Going crazy on your own 


It's the only way of getting out of here

It's the only way of getting out of here 


This is the modern way

Faking it everyday

Taking it as they come

We're not the only ones

Is that what we used to say

That this is the modern way? 


I know where I'm going

I know we are in the knowing

I will stop at nothing

Just to get what I want 


It's the only way of getting out of here

It's the only way of getting out of here 


This is the modern way

Faking it everyday

Taking it as they come

We're not the only ones

Is that what we used to say

That this is the modern way? 


That this is the modern way

Faking it everyday

Taking them as they come

We're not the only ones

Is that what we used to say

That this is the modern way?
