Songtext zu 'Fortune 500' von Everything Everything

I'm at the gates, I'm climbing over the wall
To trepon the queen and burn it down to the hall
The trail of destruction, but at least it's a trail
I am compelled to take you by the throat

They sing in my ears and make me feel like I'm lost
I don't want this, I've never spoke up enough
Think of the people that I'm doing it for
I know the ways that I have been a slave
I've done the things that I was here to do
My twin, my twin, my dragon twin goes on

So ring the alarm, I'm in the palace garage
Fortune 500 like the bug in my eye
I know I'm only living the life, but still
That I should do this for my sons

So is this still on or should I take on the king?
The queen of my island, just an animal thing
Limp as a doily flapping blood in the wings
They speak in ways I do not understand
They know I've come to isolate the mouths

I won, I won
They told me that I've won

Fortune 500 like the bug in my eye
Fortune 500 like whatever you ask

I know the ways that I have been a slave
I've done the things that I was here to do
I am prepared to take you by the throat
They speak in ways I do not understand
I won, I won, they told me that I've won
