The Flick Of A Switch I. Lyrics


Enter Shikari The Flick Of A Switch I.

[Verse 1: Rou Reynolds]
You are not a soldier, no matter what they told ya
You are just an animal in an enclosure
Doing tricks for the rich
Doing tricks for the rich

[Verse 2: Rou Reynolds]
You are not a savior, no matter what they pay ya
You wriggle like a parasite, you mimic its behavior
Now my skin starts to itch
Now my skin starts to itch

[Pre-Drop: Rou Reynolds]
I see you for what you really are
I'm the lion, you're the witch
And with the flick of a switch
I see you for what you really are
I'm the lion, you're the witch
And with the flick of a switch
(And with the flick of a switch, and with the flick of a switch)
(And with the flick of a switch, and with the flick of a switch)

[Drop: Rou Reynolds]
I see you (the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch)
I see you (the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch)
I see you (the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch)

[Chorus: Rou Reynolds]
I see you for what you really are
You're the poison in the reservoir
Climbing out of the ditch
Looking back, shouting, "Dig, dig, dig!"
I see you for what you really are
You're the poison in the reservoir

[Verse 3: Rou Reynolds]
You are not a skeptic, your interests are all vested
You are just a charlatan, a moral narcoleptic
As you climb out the ditch
Shouting, "Dig, dig, dig!"

[Verse 4: Rou Reynolds]
You are not a leader, you bite the hand that feeds ya
You are an accessory to the grim reaper
As you climb out the ditch
Shouting, "Dig, dig, dig!"

[Pre-Drop: Rou Reynolds]
I see you for what you really are
I'm the lion, you're the witch
And with the flick of a switch
I see you for what you really are
I'm the lion, you're the witch
And with the flick of a switch
(And with the flick of a switch, and with the flick of a switch)
(And with the flick of a switch, and with the flick of a switch)

[Drop: Rou Reynolds]
I see you (the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch)
I see you (the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch)
I see you (the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch, the flick of a switch)

[Chorus: Rou Reynolds]
I see you for what you really are
You're the poison in the reservoir
Climbing out of the ditch
Looking back, shouting, "Dig, dig, dig!"
I see you for what you really are
You're the poison in the reservoir
You're the poison in the reservoir
You're the poison

[Bridge: Rou Reynolds]
You're the poison, you're the poison, you're the poison, you're the poison

[Breakdown: Rou Reynolds]
You're the poison, you're the poison, you're the poison, you're the poison
You're the poison, you're the poison
You're the poison
