Cavaliers and Roundheads lyrics
by Bloc Party
[Verse 1]
Three is evil, the most evil of all the numbers
Course and hateful, full of unrest and neglect (Hey!)
When they get here, you become someone else
Cruel and distant, a cavalier to my roundhead
[Verse 2]
And as you make
Your pretty speech
(Hey!) I see
Like Vesuvius
[Pre-Chorus]
With reason drowned by toxic force
I'm going to the dark side, 'cause
[Chorus]
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
[Post-Chorus]
I want reparations
The streets are run with your blood
I want the limelight back
I want it back
[Verse 3]
There is no reason to pretend
That we are closer than this
(Hey!) For I know that you know that I know that you know
I would rather claw out your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
With reason drowned by toxic force
I'm going to the dark side, 'cause
[Chorus]
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
[Post-Chorus]
I want reparations
The streets are run with your blood
I want the limelight back
I want it back
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
Sometimes I want to hurt you, sometimes I want to hurt you
[Post-Chorus]
I want reparations
The streets are run with your blood
I want the limelight back
I want it back
