LCD Soundsystem — Pow Pow

From this position I will relax From this position I can see the whole place From this position Oh, oh just relax From this position I make some stand I make my peace with the man And it goes pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow It goes pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow From this position I can see both of them From this position I totally get how the decision was reached From this position I can say "serious," or "cop-out," or "hard to define" From this position, from this position It's kind of like eating myself to death With you on the outside And me on the inside There's advantages to both (Advantages to both!) And me being uptight And you being all right There's advantages to each (Advantages! Advantages!) From this perspective, from this position I have a good grip on both of them Because I have stayed home And have learned a little more about my neighbourhood Which is important You know, there's a lot of good places to eat So it goes pow, pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow So it's pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow It goes pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow With you on the keystroke And me on the gangplank There's advantages to both (Advantages to both) And you have been all right And I have been filmed being ridiculous Oh, eat it, Michael Musto (You're no Bruce Vilanch!) Now I have been untied And you are all cross-eyed There's advantages to each (Advantages to each) And I'm coming back, coming back, coming back Until there's nothing left in the well Is that what they call it, the well? I'm paralyzed And looking through you But if nothing's right We try anyway As a compromised, aggregate person I'm amazed at my decision to play On this occasion, there are a couple of things that we know that we pulled from Fact Magazine One, the king wears a king hat and lives in a king house Two, your time will come, but tonight is our night So you should give us all of your drugs Three, we have a black president and you do not, so shut up, because you don't know shit about where I'm from that you didn't get from TV So times have been tough And times have been tough You have been put down, washed up, and rinsed out But honestly And be honest with yourself How much time do you waste? How much time do you blow every day? And so it's pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Oh, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow So pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow Pow, pow, pow, pow Pow, pow, pow, pow (The return of the police!) (The return of the police) With you on the inside And me on the outside There's advantages to both (Advantages to both!) With me being wired And you being tired There's advantages to each (Advantages! Advantages!) From this position I feel an affinity for the both of them, which is confusing But honestly I should be careful because otherwise, I'm being, I'm being, you know, what's it called? Oh, fuck it Reclining, I'm getting used to it Like kissing under a bridge It's an entirely new Discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery And then a couple of weeks at home And then a couple of weeks away And then home and away, again To use up your desire for Discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery For an instant You could have pushed through But it's a plagiarized Regret anyway But what you want for now Is someone to feel you And that's the thing you like Is planning to stay And all this time It's so nice It's so nice It's so nice (The return of the police!)
