Lyrics:
Tonight I'm taking names for the game
Can I be tamed?
I take a blue pill for the thrill
Sip it with alcohol
Any of them will do
Give me two at the same time
I go sowing my oats
Far and wide

Sent a text to my ex on Valentine's Day
But nothing came back so I fuck the pain away
Fuck the pain away
Take a bite if you like
The first is free, the second you'll pay
I'm a reasonable man

And now I'm flirting again
Again, again, again, again
Now I'm flirting again
Again, again, again, again
And now I'm flirting again
Again, again, again, again
Again, again, again, again
With this one
With that one

Call me Ace of Spades, Lemonade
As I maintain your gaze
I don't know your name
Pink cocaine coursing through my vein
You could be my flame
All paths lead to the same place
I'm so tired of this scene
Make an honest man of me
So I dust off the moves that the dream boy taught me
Shave my chest, bench press
I keep it chill but naughty
So I dust off the moves that the go-go boy taught me
A whole lifetime ago

And now I'm flirting again
Again, again, again
Now I'm flirting again
And now I'm flirting again
Again, again, again, again
With this one
With that one
Oh

Flirt
Could you be the one?
Flirt
Could you be the one?
Flirt
Keep me on my toes
Flirt
My tippy toes
I keep my cards close to my chest
Flirt
I keep my heartbreak all to myself

Tonight I'm taking names for the game
Can I be tamed?
I take a blue pill for the thrill
Sip it with alcohol
Any of them will do
Give me two at the same time
I go sprinkling my love over SW4

Flirt
Could you be the one?
Flirt
Could you be the one?
Flirt
Keep me on my toes
Flirt
My tippy toes
I keep my cards close to my chest
Flirt
I keep my heartbreak all to myself

He's flirting again
Oh

Ratchet? Mercury? The Love Within? We have all of those at home:

I remember being pissed when the Weekend in the City haters begged for the Silent Alarm Bloc Party back(The Prayer, Kruezberg and On are still on par with the best song of In Rainbows from the same year). But if you’ve come this far and still feel loyal? Hats off to you.

To me the mistake is thinking that you can replace Matt and Gordon and still call it the same band. I’m sure that’s already been said by others a million times, but disloyalty breeds disloyalty.

I've been going over this song for awhile and I'd like to give my honest take as a massive fan of this incredible band. I love the energy of the song, I love how Russell continues to give his everything when it comes to his different approach on the guitar, the instrumentation is great and Kele is such a talented frontman. I love their fun dancy songs. Flux Ratchet, High Life are all bangers, but I miss how poetic and meaningful a lot of their songs used to be. This song is definitely growing on me but I still wish and hope we'd get more nuance with the writing. At the end of the day, we got a fun song with a band that's having a blast on this. Just hoping to see how they evolve going forward.

What’s happened to this band? How can you go from music like helicopter, flux, banquet etc to this? Sad times

Catchy tune, but Kele's lyrics have been horrendous lately.

Opening riff sounds similar to Ratchet from the Nextwave Sessions album
