Rock The Shack lyrics

[Verse 1: Bernard Sumner]
I've been accused of everything
From Timbuktu to old Berlin
I need some armour for my flesh
I need to stop and take a rest
I've been wide-eyed but couldn't see
I stand accused of being me

[Chorus: Bernard Sumner & Bobby Gillespie]
I believe in politics
I believe in everything
I believe this world of ours is giving me adrenaline
When I hear a baby cry
When I see an old man die
That's just the way it is

[Post-Chorus: Bernard Sumner & Bobby Gillespie, Bernard Sumner]
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Yeah that's the way it is

[Verse 2: Bernard Sumner & Bobby Gillespie]
I took each day the way it came
I put my future out of frame
The signs were there for all to see
Like blue eyed mind to you and me
[Verse 3: Bobby Gillespie & Bernard Sumner]
My head laid on my beating breast
I swear to you I pass the test
I walked one hundred thousand miles
And you're the judge who's in my trial
In my trial

[Chorus: Bernard Sumner]
I believe in politics
I believe in everything
I believe this world of ours is just a den of vice and sins
And even on the darkest night
We could reach for the light
And we could get it right

[Post-Chorus: Bobby Gillespie, Bernard Sumner]
Get it right, get it right
Get it right, get it right
(We could get it right, we could get it right, we could get it right, we could get it right)
Get it right, get it right
Get it right, get it right
(We could get it right, we could get it right, we could get it right, we could get it right)

[Guitar Solo: Andrew Innes]

[Chorus: Bernard Sumner & Bobby Gillespie]
I believe in politics
I believe in everything
I believe this world of ours is giving me adrenaline
Ten thousand year ago
Crawling on the floor
Well get up Jack
It's time to rock the shack
[Post-Chorus: Bernard Sumner & Bobby Gillespie, Bernard Sumner]
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack
Rock the shack, rock the shack
It's time to get up
