Foals have described Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 2 as being heavier and darker than Part 1, and they chose this beast of a tune as its first single for a reason.

Black Bull Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I got to rip up the road
I got two nights in a row
Oh, we gon' put on a show
With a black bull in tow
I’m in that holy ghost zone
I got a trunk full of gold
Don't look at me like that
Don't look at me like this
Ooh
[Verse 2]
Can you remember my name?
I swear you’re all just the same
Ooh, tu parlais Anglais?
Can o' Stella, fish fillet?
In a foreshortened future
I saw you drinking kombucha
And it really don't suit ya
And I'm not the waiter
Ooh
[Chorus]
We not playing around
I got a black bull in town
[Bridge]
I call a wolf a wolf
This for real, ain't no spoof
I'm breaking bones on the roof
Who me? I'm not aloof
Forsooth, for shame
I done conquered where I came
And I'm a world away
’Cause I’m a man of today
[Chorus]
He not playing around
The black bull's in town
The black bull’s in town
He not playin' around
