Lyrics

No fame
All there is
All there was
On the second lady
Can’t take a cent
Take a cut of that
Kind of ran
I’ll stand kind of pushed
Kind of bent
On that heavy land
I’ll stand for the sake of my friends
I will see him there

Down
Down
Count me down
Down
Down boy
Down
Count me down
Down
Down boy
Down
Down
Down
Count me down
Down boy

The same
Not begin
Not give up
In a better way
Again
Kept the stain
Off his bed
Not to split them off
I’ll stand for the sake of my friends
I will see them there
Well I will see them there
No fame
All there is
All there was
On the second lady
Can’t take a cent
Take a cut of that
Kind of ran
I’ll stand kind of bent
Kind of pushed
On that heavy land
I’ll stand for the sake of my friends
I will see him there

Down
Down
Count me down
Down
Down boy
Down
Count me down
Down
Down boy
Down
Down
Down
Count me down
Down boy

The same
Not begin
Not give up
In a better way
Again lost the stain
Off his bed
Not to split them off
I’ll stand for the sake of my friend
I will see him there
Well I will see him there

I love the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. They're becoming one of my favorite bands right behind Arctic Monkeys. I have no idea what the lyrics mean, but it seems that it's about boy troubles again (as per usual with most songs nowadays).

It begins off rather mellow, almost in acapella minus the soft drum beat and some synthesized sound playing a note here and there. It then kicks into the chorus (down, down, count me down, down boy) with an oh so catchy hook, and then proceeds to a guitar solo. Rinse and repeat for the entire song.

GO YYY's!!! COME TO VANCOUVER PLIX. <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
