Wild Beasts - The Fun Powder Plot Lyrics
When we turn up in our turn up’s,
Our hearts are heavy,
Our heads are ready to levy.
For the yippee-less swing,
For the mock, for the shock,
For the fun powder plot.
With courage and conviction,
In donkey-jaw diction,
We cry for the cause
We cry for the cause [x2]
Because the courts have left us lonely;
Disowned us daddies like the poopers of the party.
Gently, gently take them from me…
Gently, gently take them from me…
Gently, gently take them from me,
And I’ll be left dumfound as a donkey.
This is a booty call, my boot up your asshole.
This is a Freudian slip, my slipper in your bits.
With courage and conviction,
In donkey-jaw diction,
We cry for the cause
We cry for the cause [x2]
Because the courts have left us lonely;
Disowned us daddies like the poopers of the party.
Gently, gently take them from me…
Gently, gently take them from me…
Gently, gently take them from me,
And I’ll be left dumfound as a donkey.
This is a booty call, my boot up your asshole.
This is a Freudian slip, my slipper in your bits.

Wild Beasts The Fun Powder Plot Comments
I miss these fellas making music together 🥺
This album is my favorite Wild Beasts album. Like how does this not have a million views?
One of the best songs of their living times... I wish theye were active all together for their lovers again!
This song should have been a number 1 in the USA...!!! The best band from the UK from the past 15 years. Went to see them 10 times, never done that for any musical act ever. Thanks lads x Great memories x
one of the best bands ever! im 56, relevant? Cumbria!!
this song is the most passionate that the words "My boot in your asshole" have ever been sung
amazing!
All-time awesome ode to Kate Bush. Hayden Thorpe, ya beauty.
one of the best of wild beasts
I love this song. Magnificent intro...
amazing song
amazing intro
The best song for the worst day. Hard to know the will separate. :(
good one
You'd never have thought this was 7 years old.
why not?
Compared to the comparative deluge of music from fairly recently which is touted as wholly new with no comparison or predecessor.
@Dylan Milne Fair enough. Indie/Folk isn't my usual bag so I'm not really in the loop
One of my absolute favourite songs from these guys, it is just so hypnotic and draws you in and you cant resist ! A great intro and a great finish at the end of this song, the lyrics are superb. Marvellous !
Best beat!
kinda took me about 2 years to appreciate these lads because I was too busy listening to the national but boy they're special!
I found this album today I thought I lost it! It will be on repeat
This shows what actual music education in bands can do; 6 minutes, but it doesn't feel like it.
Haiden has such a good voice
Foals/Alt-j
@TeeterreteeT My dad could beat your dad in a fight
Very Mature.
my favourite track at the moment!!!
they remind of foals, the drums, and grizzly bear which is just magic. fuck they're really good
there needs to be a more recent top comment, makes this song seem forgotten.
positive 。◕ ‿ ◕。 vibes
was into it until the too cool vocals had to come in
Am I the only one that thinks the lyrics to this song are hilarious?
Wild Beasts are far superior to Everything Everything, and I've seen both twice. This song sends shivers down my spine and gives me hideously large goosebumps. It's so beautiful.
Best intro to a song ever. FACT.
It's very close however. Everything Everything and Wild Beasts are definitely THE two most promising bands of the last couple of years in British music - talent oozing through almost effortlessly. I don't know why and I've been comparing them for a good while now and Everything Everything still just pip it for me - but I'm a Radiohead and Blur fan: What do I know about British Alternative Rock/Pop?
this is good; but are they as good as Everything Everything?
No they are not.
they make sexy music
lovely band like the drummer
@123hoursoffear Hmmm...not really. Like, at all.
@Syrianita What else is in your top 10?
One of My top ten greatest band of all time :)
@lukehussey93 Much, agreed.
MIND. BLOWN.
Officially my top band of all time
sounds very like grizzlybear good tho
best band/album i've heard recently
ah! "Donkey-jaw diction!" fucking poetic!
@rabXS Yes!! Totally agree!!! Two Dancers is the stuff that legends are made of!!!
Thanks for your comment buddy. Great songs from these guys with original raw talent and great creativity. Very unique. Went to 10 of their gigs and I miss them a lot x
Very nice
@varkostush You are 'spot on' Varkostush. Well said!
@lukehussey93 band, of the year, EVERY YEAR
VERY NICE!!
Is there any band around at the moment with a more hauntingly beautiful sound? Temper Trap may be pretenders to the throne but they aren't coming close to this or 'Still got the taste dancing on our tongues'. Thorpe's voice is incredible. Their sound is so unexpected and therefore such a breath of fresh air. These guys could rescue the British music scene from 5 more years of cheesy DJs and faux Rappers. Long Live Wild Beasts!
They opened with this live and I fell in love with it immediately. amazing song, amazing band!
Lyrics so amazing I almost missed it.
this is a booty call
my boot my boot my boot my boot
love this band, they´re style can be so unique and original i just love they´re musics.
Incredible song as so many of them are on "Two Dancers". But really, it's quite an unusual choice as an opener - pretty mellow and moody. I think it's a very nice choice though. Perfect song.
Best song on the album! So incredibly tight!
band of the year man, fucking original sound!
damm, this is great :O
Fantastic sound. Great band
