[Verse 1]
Attention, pay attention
No mention, a sickest array
A mission, an admission
Ignition, detonate

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh no don't talk about it
No please don't talk about it
Oh no don't talk about it
Not one more word about it
Oh no don't think about it
No please don't think about it
Oh please don't think about it
It goes away

[Chorus]
Who made these promises?
You made these promises
Erase, replace
Erase, replace
We'll make more promises
We'll wait for promises
Erase, replace
Erase, replace

[Verse 2]
A vision, division
Revision, recognate
An action, a reaction
Distraction, question the fate

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh no don't talk about it
No please don't talk about it
Oh no don't talk about it
It goes away

[Chorus]
Who made these promises?
You made these promises
Erase, replace
Erase, replace
We'll make more promises
We'll wait for promises
Erase, replace
Erase, replace

[Bridge]
Oh, oh we're better off now
It's the only thing left said
Meant for you
Oh, oh I'm better off now
It's the only thing left said
Meant for you

[Chorus]
Who made these promises?
You made these promises
Erase, replace
Erase, replace
We'll make more promises
We'll wait for promises
Erase, replace
Erase, replace

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Erase, replace
Erase, replace

Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
