Lyrics for Song: Us
Lyrics for Album: Live In London [2010]



They made a statue of us

And it put it on a mountain top

Now tourists come and stare at us

Blow bubbles with their gum

Take photographs have fun, have fun



They'll name a city after us

And later say it's all our fault

Then they'll give us a talking to

Then they'll give us a talking to

Because they've got years of experience

We're living in a den of thieves

Rummaging for answers in the pages

We're living in a den of thieves

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious



We wear our scarves just like a noose

But not 'cause we want eternal sleep

And though our parts are slightly used

New ones are slave labor you can keep



We're living in a den of thieves

Rummaging for answers in the pages

We're living in a den of thieves

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious



They made a statue of us

They made a statue of us

The tourists come and stare at us

The sculptor's marble sends regards

They made a statue of us

They made a statue of us

Our noses have begun to rust

We're living in a den of thieves

Rummaging for answers in the pages

Were living in a den of thieves



And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious

And it's contagious
