What You Meant — Franz Ferdinand

As I took step number four Into the close of your tenement You cast your darkened eyes so low Said we're cold as the step cement

But I just don't know Ah, what you meant What you meant

So Alec, you may want a pill We are so cruel to communicate Without the red stuff being spilled We must MDMA our sentiment

But I just don't know Ah, what you meant What you meant What you meant

If we were feckless we'd be fine Sucking hard on our innocence But we've been bright in our decline Been left as blackened filament

But I just don't know Oh, I don't know No, I don't know No, I don't know (What did you mean?) No, I don't know (What did you mean?) No, I don't know (What did you mean?) No, I don't know (I got to get away from) (I got to get away from you)

Cause I feel blood inside the vein I feel life inside the ligament I feel alive, yeah just the same Same vigour and the same intent

Oh but I just don't know Oh if that's what you meant
