Drive Like I Do

Songwriter: Adam Hann Ross MacDonald George Daniel Matthew Healy

Producer: The 1975

We'll storm the walls, we'll storm the walls of this town
We're taking out, we're taking over all your shops and all your sons and daughters
And we'll watch you, running
And you'll feel the wrath of my sword

Well, so long, to your brother
I never liked him anyway
So let's take a walk, let's take a walk
Right to town
You find yourself lost
Just pass the steps but use the breadcrumb trails
What Hansel and Gretel left

And we'll watch you, running
Playmobils and building blocks won't distract you from your Lego, Lego

Top of the wall shouting eyo, eyo
You're over the top because the lights are on
The lights are on before battle, battle, battle, battle

And we'll eventually catch you
And we'll eventually catch you
We'll eventually catch you

(Know what this means)
This means war
Eighteen, you and me
Watching you stand, out, oh

We're not frightened of you
We're not frightened of you
We're not frightened of you
Hey, 'cause we are

[x7]
We are kings
