Metric – Combat Baby: Lyrics and Music Video
Combat Baby Lyrics
We used to leave the blue lights on and there was a beat
Ever since you have been gone, it’s all caffeine-free
Faux punk fatigues
Said it all before
They try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
Get no harm done, no
None of them want to fight me
Combat baby
Come back, baby
Fight off the lethargy
Don’t go quietly
Combat baby
You said you would never give up easy
Combat baby, come back
Get back in town
I wanna paint it black
I wanna get around
Easy living crowd, so flat
Said it all before
They try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
I want to be wrong
But no one here wants to fight me like you do
Combat baby
Come back, baby
Fight off the lethargy
Don’t go quietly
Combat baby
Said you would never give up easy
Combat baby, come back
I try to be so nice
Compromise
Who gets it good?
Every mighty, mild seventies child
Every mighty, mild seventies child
Beats me
(do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do)
(do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do)
Combat baby
Come back, baby
Combat baby, come back
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, baby
Combat baby, come back
How i miss your ranting
Do you miss my all time lows?
