SOFT PLAY
Catfish & The Bottlemen covered “Black Skinhead” by Kanye West in BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge in 2015.
Vocalist Van McCann decided to substitute the original verses for “Howlin' For You” by The Black Keys and the chorus from “Shoot The Runner” by Kasabian.
[Verse 1]
I must admit, I can't explain
Any of these thoughts racing through my brain, it's true
See, baby, I'm howling for you
Yeah, there's something wrong with this plot
The actors here have not got a clue
See, baby, I'm howling for you
[Chorus]
Four in the morning and I'm zoning
I think I'm possessed, it's an omen
I keep it 300 like the Romans
Keep it 300 like the Romans
Baby, we're living in the moment
I've been a menace for the longest
But I ain't finished, I'm devoted
And you know it and you know it
[Verse 2]
Shoot the runner, shoot, shoot the runner
I'm a king and she's my queen
Shoot the runner, shoot, shoot the runner
I'm a king and she's my queen
[Bridge]
So come on, homie, what happened?
You brothers ain't breathing, you gasping
You've never been ready for action, no
So come on, homie, what happened?
You brothers ain't breathing, you gasping
You've never been ready for action, no
[Chorus]
Four in the morning and I'm zoning
They say I'm possessed, it's an omen
I keep it 300 like the Romans
Keep it 300 like the Romans
Baby, we're living in the moment
I've been a menace for the longest
But I ain't finished, I'm devoted
And you know it and you know it (Woo)
[Outro]
Let's go to L.A., baby
