Wild Young Hearts

The Noisettes Wild Young Hearts Lyrics
1.Don't Upset The Rhythm

Lyricist:George Astasio, James Ross Morrison, Jason Andrew Pebworth,
Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

Don't upset the rhythm though
Don't upset the rhythm
Don't upset the rhythm though
Don't upset the rhythm

The time is right
The sun is sleeping in the sky
Free yo' mind
You never know what you might find

What's your vice?
You know we won't compromise
So let me show you
Something super beautiful

Let's rock the boat
The magic is unstoppable
For on the floor
It's the rhythm you've been waiting for

Pure delight
Kick, snare, hat ride
It's all up to you
And whatever you do
Don't cut into my action
Four, three, two, one

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm though
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm, don't you dare
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm

Skin and bone
And a baton microphone
Can't get home
But you can use my dog and bone

We'll crank that stereo
Even when the speakers blow
D I Y
Just meet me up in paradise

Whatever it takes
To carry you away
It all comes down to actions
Four, three, two, one

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm though
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm, don't you dare
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Go baby, go baby go
This time I like it
Go baby, go baby go
Now don't you dare
Don't upset the rhythm

Don't upset the rhythm though
Don't upset the rhythm
Don't upset the rhythm, don't you dare
I told you, don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm though
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm, don't you dare
Don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm though
Go baby, go baby go

Don't upset the rhythm
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm, don't you dare

Hey
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm though
Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm

Go baby, go baby go
Don't upset the rhythm, don't you dare
Don't upset the rhythm


2.Never Forget You

Lyricist:George Astasio, James Ross Morrison, Jason Andrew Pebworth,
Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

Watcha drinking?
Rum or whiskey?
Now won'tcha have a
Double with me?

I'm sorry I'm a little late
I got your message by the way
I'm calling in sick today
So let's go out for old time's sake

I'll never forget you
They said we'd never make it
My sweet joy
Always remember me

We were mysterious
And you were always wearing black
I was so serious
You know my boyfriend's mother
Nearly had a heart attack

I'm sorry I'm a little late
You know the stripes on a tiger
Are hard to change

I know this world feels
Like an empty stage
I wouldn't change a thing
So glad you're back again

I'll never forget you
They said we'd never make it
My sweet joy
Always remember me

I'll never forget you
At times we couldn't shake it
You're my joy
Always remember me

We just got swallowed up
You know I didn't forget you
We just got swallowed up

Well, we just got swallowed up
But you love that I didn't forget you
We just got swallowed up
By the whole damn world

Watcha thinking?
Did you miss me?
I borrowed your silver boots
Now if you'd just let me
Give them back to you

I'll never forget you
They said we'd never make it
My sweet joy
Always remember me

I'll never forget you
Although at times we couldn't shake it
You're my joy
Always remember me

Don't you know that you're my joy
Always remember me
Don't you know that you're my joy
Always remember me


3.Atticus

Lyricist:James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John
Montag Smith

To kill a mockingbird is
To silence the song that seduces you
Why? 'Cause you need that desire
In your heart to survive

And you need that burning fire
In your soul to know
You're still alive, so catch me when I fall
Or did I dive at your delight?

In my heart I can fly
And I cannot disguise my love
There is no time
And I wouldn't know how

Constellations tonight
Are so fiercesomely bright, my love
I have no fear
I am Atticus now

Remember what I lost like hot coals
In my hand from days gone by
Like Pandora adored the euphoria
As her heart raced

Like love lost you've got to try even in vain
Feels like you'll go insane
But your heart is instrument
That I've ever had to play

In my heart I can fly
And I cannot disguise my love
There is no time
And I wouldn't know how to

Constellations tonight
Are so fiercesomely bright, my love
I have no fear
I am Atticus now

So why don't we fall into the waves?
Can't you see how my heart
Yearns to misbehave?

In my heart I can fly
And I cannot disguise my love
There is no time to
And I wouldn't know how

Constellations tonight
Are so fiercesomely bright, my love
I have no fear left
'Cause I am Atticus now

So why don't we fall into the waves?
Can't you see how my heart
Yearns to misbehave?


4.24 Hours

Lyricist:George Astasio, James Ross Morrison, Jason Andrew Pebworth,
Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

I'm pulling my hair out
I can't get to sleep
The bed feels so empty
I can still smell you on me

A moment in space
The look on your face when I said hello
You stagger to mine
You're still on my mind, why do I feel so low?

It could have been forever but we'll never know
Twenty four hours ago
The night was all we had and then I had to go
Twenty four hours ago
We were lovers twenty four hours ago

Where did the summer go?
Everybody's fallen in love
Hey lover, I'm in limbo
I can still feel your touch

So look in my eyes
And tell me you don't want to run away
I know I was bold
But life is too short to catch
A heart so cold and break

It could have been forever but we'll never know
Twenty four hours ago
The night was all we had and then I had to go
Twenty four hours ago
We were lovers just twenty four hours ago

How do we conceal when life
Is not what it should be?
Life is not what it seems
If you're fraying at the seams
Don't let your heart fray

Twenty four hours ago
The night was all we had and then I had to go
Twenty four hours ago
We were lovers just twenty four hours ago
We were lovers twenty four hours ago
Twenty four hours ago


5.Cheap Kicks

Lyricist:James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John
Montag Smith

Put me in the cab, it's raining outside
Had it up to here, this is the last time
You kissed me on my throat in broad daylight
And we were like two kittens in a play fight

It didn't last a week, I could have told you so
You were too much for me and I didn't let you know
So now you love me, gone to the dark side
And I'm in somebody's arms to get you off my mind

Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good for you tonight
Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good

A million hearts are broken every hour
It'll be okay, don't let the milk turn sour
Now there'll be no more going through the motions
And there'll be no more drowning in sweet potions

It didn't last a week, I could have told you so
You were too much for me and I didn't let things grow
So now you loathe me, you've gone to the dark side
I'm in somebody's arms to get you off my mind

Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good for you tonight
Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good

Cheap kicks are alright
'Cause you don't know what's good for you sometimes
Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good

Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good

Cheap kicks are alright
If you don't know what's good for you sometimes
Cheap thrills are alright
If you don't know what's good

Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright
Cheap kicks are alright


6.Wild Young Hearts

Lyricist:John Frederik Fortis, James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet
Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

And while the city sleeps
I won't weep because I didn't keep
My boyfriend and the summer's end is here again
And the leaves are golden
Under the grand silver birch tree

While we're thinking 'bout the people we meet
Dancing feet, wasters on the cover of a magazine
People you've kissed, people you lust
And the one's that you might not
Ever remember, what's the use?

I'm not what I was last summer
Not who I was in the spring
Tell me, tell me, tell me when will we learn
We love it and we leave it and we watch it burn
Damn these wild young hearts
Damn these wild young hearts

Now that the city's awake, my heart aches
Oh, what a silly mistake it seems I've made
You left your keys under my bed
Left a thumping in my head
I would say sorry, what's the use?

'Cause, I'm not what I was last September
And I don't wear the same robes in May
We know we shouldn't do it, but we do it anyway
We know we might regret it but it seemed okay

Damn these wild young hearts
Damn these wild young hearts
Damn these wild young hearts

If now is forever then what's to prove
'Cause it won't be the same next summer
And I guess I'll see you in the spring
Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me, when will I learn
I love it and I leave it and I watch it burn

Damn this wild young heart
I told you damn this wild young heart
Damn this wild young
Tell me, tell me, tell me when will I learn
Damn this wild young heart


7.Sometimes

Lyricist:James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John
Montag Smith

I am an island underneath the setting sun
In an ocean that is churning
For all I know there might be nobody nearby
Still, the world it keeps on turning

And when that sun goes down
It gets brighter in my heart somehow
I don't know why this is
But it's what I want to know

Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for that summer home
Beside the sea and for the future

Since I left you
I'm a gold balloon that wanders high
I won't sing through rainbows and showers
Taking lovers just might keep my tears at bay
But the dam will break at any hour

By candlelight you seem
To deepen in your mysteries
Confusing forces a pool
Let me at the tides of these seas

Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for the ones we've hurt
Just to forgive us in the future

Sometimes we start over, go solo
No metaphors are needed from
This time onwards in this song

And when the sun goes down
It gets brighter in my heart somehow
I don't know why this is
But it's what I'd like to know

Yeah, sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for the ones we've hurt
Just to forgive us in the future

Sometimes we start over, just go solo
No metaphors are needed from
This time onwards in this song


8.Saturday Night

Lyricist:George Astasio, James Ross Morrison, Jason Andrew Pebworth,
Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

I've waited for so long
Put up with your shenanigans
I'm going to take you on
And you won't know the half of it

I'm gonna put you in your place
You got the queen, I've got the ace
I'll light you up and smoke you down
And watch the rings go round and round

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
This is war, war
Woah

Saturday night
Saturday night

Now I don't know what went wrong
Thought you would get away with it
Now the band are playing your swansong
And you shall know the wrath of it

You could have said it to my face
Any time or any place
I'll light you up and smoke you down
And watch your walls come tumbling down

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
This is war, war
Woah

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
This is war, war
Woah

Saturday night
Saturday night
It's Saturday night
Saturday night

I'm gonna put you in your place
You got the queen, I've got the ace
I'll light you up and smoke you down
I'll watch your world come crashing down

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
This is war, war
Woah

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
This time it's war, war
Woah

Saturday night
Saturday night
On Saturday night
Saturday night
Saturday night


9.Every Now & Then

Lyricist:George Astasio, James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet
Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

Every now and then
I get a feeling
Like I've left something behind me
But I don't know what it is yet

Like I tied a piece of string
Round my finger
And I hope this will remind me
Of the places I have been through

When I'm down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down

Every now and then
When I'm feeling lonely
I turn on my radio
Because I'm hoping that you're out there

It seems so long ago
I would see your writing
On a postcard or a note
And your stories would excite me

When I was down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down

Wherever you stop along the way
I hope that the wind blows you
Back into my life
At the end of the road

And if I'm only dreaming
Then won't you tear the curtains down
And let the light back
Into this empty room

Kissing in your room
Climbing out the window
Trying not to make a sound, but
With my first love on my mind

You see, we were never through
I never said I loved you
Even when we said goodbye
I never thought it was the last time

Down, down, down
And I'm down, down, down

Wherever you stop along the way
I hope that the wind'll blow you
Right back into my life
At the end of the road

And still, every now and then
I hear a voice singing to me softly
Deep inside my head
And it sings till I fall asleep

If I'm only dreaming
Won't someone tear the curtains down
Tear the curtains down

Every now and then
I get a feeling
It's like I've left something behind
But I don't know what it is yet

Every now and then
When you're feeling lonesome
Just sing this melody
And remember where you're going

When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down

When you're down, down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down, down


10.Beat Of My Heart

Lyricist:James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet Shoniwa, Daniel John
Montag Smith

There's a boy I like south of the river
That doesn't leave his house the morning up till noon
Not even when the flowers are in bloom

We could take a stroll or just share, you know
I just want to be your lady, oh come home soon
They say I'm a fool

I'm standing in the cold without a coat
But I just won't go down, down, down
Down, down, down

Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start
Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start

Maybe the stars will go our way
Lover, I will never ever let you stray
And I hope to see you some day

We could watch the night sky fade to blue
Listen to your heart
And maybe you will break through
Breaking the rules

Even though I'm standing in the rain without a coat
But I just won't go down, down, down
Down, down, down

Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start
Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start

Wanna give you the keys to my heart
Let it start, let it start
Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start, hey, hey

So let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, just let it start
Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start

You could be the first time I need a chart
Just let it start, let it start
Let me show you the beat of my heart
Let it start, let it start

Do show me the beat of your heart
I just won't go down, down, no, down
Down, down, down


11.So Complicated

Lyricist:John Frederik Fortis, James Ross Morrison, Shingai Elizabet
Shoniwa, Daniel John Montag Smith

Why am I weary
And why does my head feel so light?
Should I tear up the letters signed
From my black knight who thrills me?
If love doesn't kill me
I'll be lonely as a king with everything

Wild as a flower
True love carries on anywhere
Out of the concrete or from window ledges
Tell them we could be building
Something out of our despair

Don't make this so complicated
So complicated
I did not mean to keep you waiting
But I still want your love
I miss your touch

I squandered my daydreams
Don't tell me, I already know
Something so beautiful and chilled to the bone
I could have killed him, I'd tell the children
Send your heart out for repair

Don't make this so complicated
So complicated
I did not mean to keep you waiting
But I still want your love
I miss your touch

Don't make this so complicated
It's getting so complicated
I didn't mean to frustrate you
But I still want your love
Guess I miss your touch

Still want your love
I miss your touch
Still want your love
Ooh baby, I miss your touch

Don't make it so complicated
'Cause it's getting so complicated
I did not mean to frustrate you
But I still want your love
And I miss your touch

It's getting so complicated
Oh so complicated
Suddenly you and me
I still want your love
That special touch
