Fontaines D.C. – Boys In The Better Land lyrics
[Instrumental intro]
[Verse 1]
You're not alive until you start kicking
When the room is spinning and the words ain't sticking
And the radio is all about a run away model with a face like sin and a heart like a James Joyce novel
[Pre-Chorus]
Saying "sister, sister, how I missed ya, missed ya
Let's go wrist to wrist and take the skin off of our blisters"
If you're a Rock Star, Porn Star, Superstar, doesn't matter what you are, get yourself a good car, get outta here
[Chorus]
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
[Verse 2]
[?] got names to fill two double barrels
He spits out "Brits out". Only smoke carrolls
Now we're refreshing the world in mind body and spirit
Mind body and spirit
You better hear it and fear it
Oh thats the spirit
[Pre-Chorus]
Saying "sister, sister, how I missed ya, missed ya, let's go wrist to wrist, and take the skin off of my blister"
If you're a Rock Star, Porn Star, Superstar, doesn't matter what you are, get yourself a good car, get outta here
[Chorus]
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
[Instrumental outro]
[Verse 1]
You're not alive until you start kicking
When the room is spinning and the words ain't sticking
And the radio is all about a run away model with a face like sin and a heart like a James Joyce novel
[Pre-Chorus]
Saying "sister, sister, how I missed ya, missed ya
Let's go wrist to wrist and take the skin off of our blisters"
If you're a Rock Star, Porn Star, Superstar, doesn't matter what you are, get yourself a good car, get outta here
[Chorus]
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
[Verse 2]
[?] got names to fill two double barrels
He spits out "Brits out". Only smoke carrolls
Now we're refreshing the world in mind body and spirit
Mind body and spirit
You better hear it and fear it
Oh thats the spirit

But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
But the boys in the better land
You're always talking 'bout the boys in the better land
The boys in the better land
[Instrumental outro]
