Lyrics:
I hope there’s a shot in the dark
That if I keep it up I can keep on going
They say that ‘life is short’
& it can’t be bought by the likes of me
I heard that it won’t be long
Until we’re gone like dew in the morning
Stop the clocks pull up your socks
Go find a fountain to wash it off
So kill the screen head to Medellin
To shout n scream & find yr trouble
Live amongst the orange roses,
Pull vogue poses & wash it off
Lord knows I’m in the field, hellhounds are back
& on my heels
They said I died last week in the Pacific ocean
No words spoken, plane feel right out the sky
But they dunno why, but don’t you worry
Cause life’s a lie, so roll the die,
Keep on trying
To wash it off
Go wash it off
Don’t you even think of me,
Cause I’ll be free beyond the Levee
all that’s left is a ghost machine
& it can’t be reached but you can try
You should go buy the boat, build a moat
& untie yourself
Go wash it off
(You’re my ride or die, I just wish
I’d said goodbye one last time)
(Now all that’s left is a ghost machine,
It can’t be reached, it won’t be seen again)
Go wash it off

3:13 Oh my god that riff is freaking awesome

[@henrymiles8973]

Best song on the new album? 🔥🔥

[@howlinowl4561]

yes

[@HayesIsTheWay]

Dreamin Of is my favorite but I mean it when I say I've never been dissatisfied by a song from them, and Foals strikes again and pleases my ears greatly with this album.

[@howlinowl4561]

@@HayesIsTheWay Dreaming of is also a strong one imho

[@blackwolf616]

Indeed

[@aronarce3165]

In my opinion, dreaming of is a bit better

[@rafet2169]

This is underrated af

[@bezgracada]

Under the radar too

[@georgebrand9325]

The beginning riff sounds like the riff Yannis plays for INHALER live. MASSIVE

[@smokinjoe4684]

That's what I've been commenting everywhere !!

[@MeTaLMoNkEyLeYrOy]

I wouldn’t be too surprised if a lot of this new music ftes back quite a bit . The Runner riff for example has been knocking around since a jam On the pre holy fire tour in 2012 haha

[@howlinowl4561]

That is what i wanted to hear since Antidotes. thank you so much.

[@Linkmon99]

The last 60 seconds of this song is INSANE, I can already see everyone going insane at a concert.. do we really have to wait till next summer? :_(

[@royalnavy941]

Still can't believe you love foals

[@stander2625]

Saw it live last night in Leeds and youre right went mental when it drops just before the last minute!

[@fabiansulb]

can't wait for see this song in concert. i will lose myself in this song. like you discribe

[@MeTaLMoNkEyLeYrOy]

lol just a fodder song that sounds like an ex scrapped demo to me will exit the setlist in no time after this tour . Bring back the days of Providence and Electric Bloom

[@woody8804]

gonna have to wait even longer mate :(

[@camilohernandez8270]

So kill the screen, head to Medellin To shout and scream and find your trouble Live amongst the orange roses Pull vogue poses and wash it off Lord knows I'm in the field Hellhounds are back and on my heels A colombian salutes you Foals! Ive seen this band two times there and ever since then its my favorite band. Love you guys.

[@hellssurprise9338]

Meaningful lyrics, impact, twists and turns they are awsome My favourites: Knife In The Ocean Sunday Mountain At My Gates Give It All What Went Down Lonely Hunter Snake Oil and now Wash it off aswell This band has glimpses of The almighty Pink Floyd ;)

[@vinayakmishra7051]

Imagine hearing them perform this song live! The last minute or so of the song is pumpy!

[@cdog-gd3df]

How do these guys keep coming up with gold? Like its criminally under the radar, but I like that. This band is literally Black Gold 😯

[@cuneges]

Under the radars? They are one of the most famous rock band now. And I dont think the music is really good sincère total live forever but thats another story

[@cdog-gd3df]

Well at least under the radar in the states, I hear nobody talking about them here, especially in Texas :/

[@imamountainheadtoo]

@@cuneges Literally nobody here in the US knows that Foals exists, its upsetting

[@mjoet731]

@@imamountainheadtoo "literally nobody" ?? That's wrong. Plenty of people in the U.S. know about them. They play them on 88Nine in Milwaukee, The Current in the Twin Cities and KEXP - Seattle quite often. (and probably hundreds of other Alternative / College radio stations).

[@cdog-gd3df]

@@mjoet731 well shit if that's the case take me to the cheeseheads cause apparently they know good music :/

[@hughmacdonnell9096]

What a tune! I was fortunate enough to be in Glasto last year and see their set. The end of this playing in Rip Up The Road doc whilst they describe the festival gives me an unholy amount of goosebumps.

[@caro_santamaria]

"Stop the clocks! Pull up your socks! Go find a fountain to wash it off So kill the screen, head to MEDELLIN To shout and scream and find your trouble" I love that bit because I'm from Medellin, saw Foals in Medellin and MET foals in Medellin 🤩

[@juliancastallo]

VIVA MEDELLIN!

[@santiagovalencia109]

ese toque en el breakfest fue una bendicion!!

[@NoxremOfficial]

As soon as the first song of the album played I knew it would be good but I wasn't prepared for what happend when this song started!

[@tylerl.4843]

I've been looking for good new music and nothing until I came across this tonight. I must have been living under a rock. This kicks ass.

[@teoleguay189]

This one give me chills every time

[@chefstarr33]

2019 belongs too foals , Birmingham was gig of the year for me

[@ANTICHRISTJC]

My favorite song!!! From the album

[@alejandrouribe3574]

[@SharpblueCreative]

Look Mum No Computer bought me here. His remix of this song is awesome. Love the original. Love it - reminds me of The Tragically Hip. Will be listening to more.

[@opimo1859]

[@aceralexander8378]

This song bangs.

[@biljanabojanic7176]

What a song ⚡️⚡️⚡️

[@aliceinwonder6046]

Could very easily become my favorite of the second part of the album. Feels a bit like going back in time sound wise and I love it ! Also makes me think of the Maccabees :)

[@gedeiswara]

3:13 - end. The best

[@alfonso7854]

Dude I swear. It reminds me of another song but I just can’t name it

[@ukasztwardowski4809]

BEST SONG TO DANCE

[@mirralo87]

[@PlastisinNightmare]

CATCHY AS HELL!!!, and feels nostalgic i love it!!! 🧡🧡🧡

[@bvgaboo3572]

@2:18 just reminded me of an episode of Avatar the Last Airbender where Aang went to a fire nation and held a secret dance party lol

[@billymurphy9234]

I watched that episode last night 😂

[@bvgaboo3572]

BILLY MURPHY what a coincidence lol we binged watched it last month as a part of our yearly Avatar marathon Also one thing for sure, you can knock your socks off dancing to this song

[@Robyn_Retro]

Against my better judgement, I went ahead and read Pitchfork's review. How does this lack definition? I like that Foals goes overboard with it, I like that they have a signature sound. I feel like if you take those elements away you strip the band of its very character. I know music critics aren't gatekeepers and the whole idea of reviewing music is inherently flawed, but this one left me genuinely confused.

[@aaronneumann7750]

pitchfork is trash, has been for a very long time. they don't know what they're talking about.

[@andreaswong8829]

Fuck Pitchfork

[@eeeyooohoh]

lmao pitchfork follows whatever is trendy. guarantee if this was 2009 they would have given it a much higher score.

[@cesco1892]

The very hit of the album

[@smokinjoe4684]

I think it may be too, BUT you know Black Bull is going to be a banger live.

[@MKECBS1]

Getting hints of RHCP in this one. Great stuff

[@alexsemenenko1685]

Awesome!!!

[@CONTRASTEDMEMORIES]

Medellin Will be waiting...

[@soursync]

Was such a challenge but I had so much fun remixing this for the FOALS remix competition! Great track!
