Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up
Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up
Got no past no future
Fumbling through the ether
Take a ride in Aquila
Cost you 30 liras
Pushy dealer hits the meter
A shrewd operator
In the shadow of a beacon
Have a dirty weekend
Interesting proposition
Insinuate then listen
Listen listen
What a way to make a living
S-s-scissor to the ribbon
Throw my hands like a reverend
Triple sixes double sevens
When I get down to this
I'm the catalyst
For a revolution
For a revolution
For a revolution-tion-tion-tion
Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up
Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up
And have a party
Beautiful corpse
Beautiful
How you lie so still
Another life fulfilled
Oh beautiful corpse
Beautiful
How you lie so still
Another life fulfilled
Fifteen hundred red cases
A multitude of faces
The body in the basement
Double on the bunk bed
You better watch the babies
Careful with your manners
Only drinking water on the Co-co-co-cabaña
Well built family
Subject to the battery the battery
Mental men are manic in their manacles
I meant to make a metaphor for radicals
Taking off my clothes at the lido
All I got is my decadent credo
I don't think that I could watch you posing dead
(I don't think that I could watch you posing dead)
Get up
Get up
Get up
Get up
Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up
Abandoned by a suffragette
Given to a gang of gits
Sold to a pack of losers downtown Apalucia
I heard you got guns
Well I got fun
I got something sweet
What you call sin so
You lose
I win
I saw some bunch of cowboys today
I wooped-di-wood and they turned and rode away)
Get up
Get up
Get up
Get up
Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up
Come here and do the right thing
Get up and have a party
Get up
Get up

Young Fathers are the only music that I have ever wanted to just dance too. They have a huge influence on me and I just discovered them. Anyone else?

[@zander3943]

6 years later, absolutely

[@keithlynch202]

That discordant baseline is fucking eerie, waking up to this playing on the telly at 3am in the morning is a weird experience.

[@keithlynch202]

now ive finally realise what this reminds me of...throbbing grisle!, not so original after all.

[@georgemills-burrows7052]

"You lose I win" as Begbie walks down the hallway with the unconscious doctor's outfit on Robert Carlyle just slays in that role.

[@antipatsy]

Gdi I really need to watch it again.

[@rednaxelA11]

Saw these open for massive attack several years ago and the energy was so new. The three guys stood there in the centre at the front performing, but their stage presence is a real force.. their performance is like a protest, it's aggressive but also vulnerable giving off this like celebratory defiance. Really really impressive. Massive attack were awesome, but the young fathers performance before really stuck with me. Impactful.

[@anthonycitizencain]

This ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@KTKittenMD]

This is such a good tune. I can't help but listen to it over and over. The fact that these lads are Scottish is amazing. Good for you boys.

[@kohlcooke8789]

Great song to dance to if you wanna wake yourself up fast in the morning!

[@KLAEBEATS]

All the sounds are so distorted and off key but somehow they work so well together. Great song!

[@nuklearpuppy]

i concur

[@SkegakisInc]

The average of the distortion is on key. I'd call it unsettled accuracy.

[@bigowl43]

KLAE BEATS it's called a funky tune

[@seancassidy4812]

@@SkegakisInc Excellent spake. Put it in a song.

[@SakiDG]

Oh ffs now I can't stop hearing how out of tune everything is

[@scottseppers8]

First time hearing this group last night at Ball arena Denver 11/16/2023. They crushed it, infectious beat sounded amazing. Great song, but to hear it live was amazing!!!

[@johnnygray5115]

i'm an old fart and I love this. can't put my finger on why, just do. that's what music is all about, isn't it?

[@joeshmoe9233]

Johnny Gray old fart here too. with you on that 100%.

[@Yusifer100]

Johnny Gray The best kind of music is that which you can't describe why you like it. I love these guys, such a breath of fresh air.

[@Tandy2000HD]

Johnny Gray Newish fart (mid 20s fart) and I love this too. Raw, in your face, passionate, free and loose, good music.

[@raccabuda]

Nail meets head there young man!

Hi Grumps, new fart here. I love this to

[@daisylefleur]

This song would boost me with energy before id go bar hopping in my early 20s. ❤️good memoriesss ☁

[@ThePersonNetwork]

that dark bass tone really has a 'The Knife' kind of feel to it.

[@Flalmondjoy]

trainspotting 2 brought me here. I'm so in love with this group!

[@tooweirdtolivetooraretodie2533]

Woke up to this echoing across glasto and in to my ear holes, hanging half in and half out me tent completely immobile, with a biblical hangover thinking to myself what is this cosmic geniusness caressing my ears. Never saw but certainly heard. Tuuuuuuune

[@summerteeeth]

Matt Searle It's in the highlights programme currently on iplayer ;)

[@andrepardue7746]

DEAD is one of the top 50 albums of the 2010’s

[@Fatchance89]

I have no idea how I ended up here, never heard of this band before. Now I'm hooked on both the song and the video...

[@michellet822]

One of my fav tunes for 2014 so far. Just love that dipping bass...so cool.

[@d.h.k.c8113]

..... this sounds like Death Grips covering Hey Ya by Outkast.

Ray Donovan show got me hooked on your music ... its different and i love finding different music that isnt a cookie cutter repeat or rip off ..keep it up !

[@CastelCastlealltheftistaxation]

search for merzbow

[@paulrose]

***** i think merzbow may be a little too abstract, most people dont get noise music. Nice name by the way, love BoC.

[@paulrose]

Maybe so but we can only take from personal experience and in my experience most people I have met and discussed music with argue that noise isnt music.

[@CastelCastlealltheftistaxation]

most people have an IQ less then 140

[@samdanmas]

***** so you'd say that if you don't like something it's because you are definitely close minded and possibly an idiot?

The best song in Gran Turismo Sport

[@93RubixCube]

Imagine how big they'd be if they came out 25 years ago

[@shamalamadingdong108]

shut up

[@UnkleAce]

absolutely perfect

[@shamalamadingdong108]

could use more trans bass lines

[@gazicengiz898]

Rumour has it one time Oloff was sat next to Jar Jar Binks on a flight. Jar Jar kept kicking the chair in front of him and generally being obnoxious, nobody knew what to do. Eventually one of the flight attendants came over and asked Oloff if he would perform one of his songs to calm Jar Jar down, and when Oloff began rapping the first verse to Doing It Stealthy, Jar Jar immediately relaxed. To this day the two are still close friends.

[@SkegakisInc]

Hope you guys take this one to the Hollywood bowl! This shit would sound sick there.

[@arkadycolom4103]

This another level of music composing.

[@1980toc]

Amazing! Like Outkast at their best but with a slightly darker edge to it. What's not to like? Album ordered.

[@cccc-zd7eb]
