At The Drive-In - Continuum Lyrics






I'll drop a dime on you first
I'll drop a dime on you first

Lest the backside of my hand find you sleeping hand over fist soliciting headlines again
Groping the porcelain rim of a microfiche reader ransacking dawn
You'll try and pry yourself from a quick grave in a sleuth's boneyard
But that paper trail you've fawned over so much is just a dead language

Take your armor off
Play that executioners song
What's the matter now
Are your feet bitten by frost

I'll drop a dime on you first
Commotion sickness with dramamine pills
Commute my sentence to the 13th floor now
I'll drop a dime on you first
Placebo buttons maime all the tattle tails
When the dosage doesn't seem to work now
I'll drop a dime on you first

You might just serve out the rest of your life soaked in the deprivation of a faraday tank
Laughing your hyena fractures of false alarms
You've been party to subterfuge since Jesus was a corporal
It's just scaffolding with no building to demolish

Take your armor off
Play that executioner's song
What's the matter now
Are your feet bitten by frost

I'll drop a dime on you first
Commotion sickness with dramamine pills
Commute my sentence to the 13th floor now
I'll drop a dime on you first
Placebo buttons maime all the tattle tails
When the dosage doesn't seem to work now
I'll drop a dime on you first

Fleet of foot beat the rising tide
Cinder block soles in the clear of my throat
Do you know what I found?
Do you know what I found?
Agitate the crowds, let them coin the phrase
Found you hiding out in the alpha hotel now
Do you know what I found?

Orchards gas lit and cover the footprints
All points bulletin load up your commissary
Fifth point of contact the amateur noose is willing
Fifth point of contact the amateur noose
Calls
And when it calls
When it calls
And there's always a subpoena for the past

I think I'll drop a dime, I think I'll drop a dime
I think I'll drop a dime, I think I'll drop a dime
I think I'll drop a dime...

I'll drop a dime on you first
Commotion sickness with dramamine pills
Commute my sentence to the 13th floor now
I'll drop a dime on you first
Placebo buttons maime all the tattle tails
When the dosage doesn't seem to work now
I'll drop a dime on you first
I'll drop a dime on you first
I'll drop a dime on you first

  1. v.... ....

    even if these guys will try to record their farts, the result will be good...

  2. A.... O....

    "I've gotta get a new phooooonnneee"

  3. S.... ....

    I feel you Cedric, I gotta get a new phone too

    B.... L....

    Genetically Superior Specimen what?! What happened?

    B.... L....

    Not broke up, hiatus, probably something to do with Cedric's voice

  6. S.... G....

    Not gonna lie, I didnt expect it to be as good as it is. I am super sceptical of bands that come back with a new album after a long hiatus but this is actually not too bad

  7. A.... ....

    "I gotta get a new phone" is the new "have chicken with jello"

    A.... ....

    this is the only "get a new phone" comment i laughed at... you got me buddy, you got me :)

    A.... ....

    As in "have chicken with jello one armed scissor"?

    A.... ....

    Oh Sicks “have trigger will travel”

    A.... ....

    @Oh Sicks Quarantined

  8. J.... P....

    Continuum, Call Broken Arrow, and Ghost Tape No. 9 blow my mind.

  9. C.... H....

    At the Drive-in was one of my first music loves. Deloused in the Comatorium by Mars Volta is one of my favorite albums of all time. Nevertheless this is an At the Drive-in song to the core. Its beautiful.

    C.... H....

    This ATDI album is the best they've done. I don't know why it's getting some stick.

  10. J.... P....

    Okay. The scream vocals here are freaking sick.

  11. D.... T....

    I JABBA JABBA YO FACE

  12. I.... ....

    2:29 probably my favorite ATDI sequence ever

  13. S.... F....

    i also gotta get a new phone..

  14. A.... P....

  15. K.... E....

    Misheard lyric "I gotta get a new phone"

  16. M.... n....

  17. S.... H....

    unbelievable, atdi is awesome . . .

  18. S.... ....

    dammit dammit, i can dig it

  19. L.... P....

    this is so disappointing. it's just like listening to the old albums. when i heard there was a new album i was excited to see what he'd bring over from mars volta.

    L.... P....

    Luke Pawelek the guitars are more advanced

    L.... P....

    They did do that in diamante and there's a little bit in here if you listen

  20. J.... ....

    Thought this album would have got more hype

  21. P.... ....

    I GOTTA GET A NEW PHOOOOONE

  22. W.... B....

    oh my god so good.

    and you know theres gonna be a volta reunion as soon as this tour is over.

    I AM SO FUCKING READY

  23. S.... ....

    soooo this songs about the corrupt prison system?

  24. J.... M....

    "I got to get a new phoooone?" :P

    J.... M....

    the amateur noose
    CALLS
    and when it calls
    and there's always
    a subpoena for the past

    J.... M....

    I got to get the new I phoooooonnnne; I think!

    J.... M....

    Haha, sure

  25. b.... ....

    Completely unoriginal but still good

  26. q.... ....

    Come to Chile guys... please... ;---;

  27. O.... ....

    What year is it

  28. T.... ....

    They sound kinda like Rage Against The Machine.

    T.... ....

    check out the band " the bad brains" both bands influenced by them , cheers

    T.... ....

    The Mars Volta > Everything else

    T.... ....

    BOOOOOO. BOOOOOO TheLostStraysVEVO. BOOOOOO.

    T.... ....

    but yeah I can see what you're getting at. Rage isn't my one of my faves but they're still good from what I've heard.

  29. G.... ....

    I hope they play this way in Mexico <3

  30. D.... V....

    That's exactly this kind of riffs i was expected for the new ATDI !

  31. J.... J....

    Tomorrow is going to be sick.

    J.... J....

    Joshua Jasso that shit was sick

  32. W.... ....

    Easily, EASILY one of atdi's best songs. That fucking bridge is so goddamn orgasmic.

  33. o.... ....

    This song kicks ass!

  34. K.... O....

    Haha very good!

  35. a.... q....

    It's been 17 years, boys

    a.... q....

    Here, here.

    a.... q....

    +Melissa me and my girl are going to see them tonight here in phoenix! we're getting ready now listening to some new atdi before the show!!

    a.... q....

    quite right chaps

    a.... q....

    sounds famil for sure ..

  36. a.... ....

    best song on the new album. can't wait to see then on the 12th!

  37. R.... T....

    I don't like his timbre in this one. At all. Least favourite from the new album.

    R.... T....

    Just sounds a little strained. Grates my ear parts.

    R.... T....

    Rael Thomas definitely. Ear parts lolz

    R.... T....

    wow seriously? This is one of my fav from the album. His vocals are very old school ATDI

    R.... T....

    Best one of the album so far. Cedric is insane!

    R.... T....

    Jérémy Mesplet so far? The album is out. That's ok :) to each his own

  38. T.... ....

    i ruin my jeans every time a new song comes

  39. M.... ....

    so goood to hear this new song!!!

  40. D.... Z....

    I nutted during the whispering

    D.... Z....

    Danielle Zamudio do girls nut?

    D.... Z....

    I mean, this song is that good so, now they do LMAO

  41. B.... P....

    Not as interesting or epic as Mars Volta but brilliant none the less.

    B.... P....

    We'll agree to disagree.

    B.... P....

    I think the production lends itself more to that radio friendly vibe.

    B.... P....

    no its not and also. its not that epic

    B.... P....

    I'd agree with that. It's a bit too polished for my taste.

    B.... P....

    Yeah, I was so fucked when I first heard it and I'm a big fan of RATM + Audioslave so this one kind of hit a grunge note. Not very ATDI though for real. Still, if this is the worst they can do...

  42. A.... L....

    I didn't born in time to explore the world, I didn't born in time to explore the universe, but I born in time to see AtDI make music again

    A.... L....

    Alejandro Lopez I also glad I born in time

    A.... L....

    I actually glad I born in wrong time

    A.... L....

    Born to die

    A.... L....

    I did born in time of magnificence

    A.... L....

    You can explore the world if you really want to.

  43. B.... B....

    The Genre Starters are back!
