[Verse 1]
I've read the papers
Look at this
They say that I'm all over
I don't know
They're not the first ones to try
So try
Again
What's the fashion?
Is it good?
I'll need some convincing
If you've got it
Then I've seen it before
So try
Again

[Chorus]
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger

[Verse 2]
I don't need it
I can stop
I can take this or leave it
You can have it
But if you want it from me
Then come
And try
I've been bad
I've been good
I've been one more hero
I've been up
And I've been lower than you
So come
And try

[Chorus]
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger

[Bridge]
If you want it
If you want it
If you want it
Come and get it
If you want it
If you want it
If you want it
Come and get it

[Chorus]
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger
Do you want it?
Do you want it?
Welcome to new anger
