[Intro]
This is from
This is from
This is from Matilda

[Verse 1]
Just like Johnny Flynn said
"The breath I've taken and the one I must" to go on
Put the grenade pin in your hand, so you understand who's boss
My defeat sleeps top-to-toe with her success

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, this is from
This is from
This is from Matilda

[Chorus]
And she needs you
This is from Matilda
And she needs you
This is from Matilda

[Verse 2]
Just like Johnny Flynn said
"The breath I've taken and the one I must" to go on
Put the grenade pin in your hand, so you understand who's boss
My defeat sleeps top-to-toe with her success

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, this is from
This is from
This is from Matilda

[Chorus]
And she needs you
This is from Matilda
And she needs you
This is from Matilda
And she needs you
This is from Matilda

[Bridge]
Elle a besoin de toi
Cela vient de Matilda

[Chorus]
And she needs you
This is from Matilda
And she needs you
This is from Matilda
And she needs you
This is from Matilda
And she needs you (This is from Matilda)
This is from Matilda

[Outro]
This is from Matilda
This is from Matilda
Matilda
Matilda
Matilda

​​alt-J

alt-J is an English indie rock band that consists of vocalist and guitarist Joe Newman, keyboardist and bassist Gus Unger-Hamilton and drummer Thom Green. Gwil Sainsbury was the band’s bassist before leaving the band in early 2014.

Formed at Leeds University and signed to a label in Cambridge, UK, the band originally made songs on Garageband before releasing them under the pseudonym ∆.

∆’s name takes a little explaining. Pronounced alt-J, the delta sign is inserted when you press alt and J on a Mac keyboard.
