Lyrics Tribalism - Enter Shikari

Tribalism

Shikari
Was third generation Aztec
His tribe accepting human reality
It was the basis of their ability to sustain with humble tranquillity
Civilisations encouraged religions which in turn introduced depravity
And that was a bigger realisation as when my boy Newton discovered gravity
Because it transformed the way we bounce about
On a daily basis, were content with a doubt about the knowledge of who’s out
there
Quick, Give him a name a trident and a chair
Sharpish, what happened to wonder?
Why can’t we accept when our people believe thunder
So we welcome the lies with open arms and we turn into suckers when they turn
on the charm
Trying to run us all into the ground to be swallowed by the soil and trapped by the rain
(In your concrete garden a fortress)
Reach through our speakers, and we don’t turn them off
because trapped in silence is tougher, but this time we’ll turn the speakers off
and we won’t stay silent
We’ll make as much noise as we can!
And I Ask what’s a thought without a voice to voice it it’s just a thought it’s just a thought!
(IT'S JUST A THOUGHT!)
And I Ask what’s a thought without a voice to voice it it’s just a thought it’s just a thought!
The original affluent society, floating free of capitalistic anxiety
But all that’s survived now is the pack five
But the catch is dogs don’t eat other dogs
were able animals employed by criminals in this cannibalistic society
Where we scrimp and save just to behave with the utmost propriety
Trying to run us all into the ground to be swallowed by the soil and trapped by the rain
(In your concrete garden a fortress)
Trying to run us all into the ground to be swallowed by the soil and trapped by the rain
(In your concrete garden a fortress)
Reach through our speakers, and we don’t turn them off
because trapped in silence is tougher, but this time we’ll turn the speakers off
and we won’t stay silent
We’ll make as much noise as we can!
And I Ask what’s a thought without a voice to voice it it’s just a thought it’s just a thought!
(IT'S JUST A THOUGHT!)
I See a kid with his mouth shut,
And I Ask what’s a thought without a voice to voice it it’s just a thought it’s just a thought!
We won’t shout our heads off
We won’t stop until you hear
We won’t stop until you trip up upon yourselves
I See a kid with his mouth shut
And I Ask what’s a thought without a voice to voice it it’s just a thought it’s just a thought!
I See a Kid with his mouth shut And I Ask what’s a thought without a voice to voice it it’s just a thought it’s just a thought!
It’s just a thought.
And we won’t stay silent;
we’ll make as much noise as we can!
We Won’t Stay Silent!
