Method to the Madness Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stumbling through the Gothic Quarter streets
No booking code means no hotel guarantee
Tie done wrong and plastic shoes
A professional learns from all of their rookie moves
[Chorus]
There must be some method to the madness
Method to the madness
Still, I don't wanna know
Just one more smile and then I'll go
There must be some method to the madness
[Verse 2]
Tourist traps and museum food
Saying thanks in a language that's never been used
This could be a holiday or an intersection
Where two roads fuse, where two roads fuse
[Chorus]
There must be some method to the madness
Method to the madness
Still, I don't wanna know
Just one last smile and then I'll go
There must be some method to the madness
Method to the madness
Stop, I don't need to know
There must be some method to the madness
[Refrain]
Fuck my sadness, and fuck your roleplay
No construction, I'll build it my own way
No more subscribing, and no reviews
Fuck our options, and fuck the life plan
No more worry, I killed it with both hands
Just give me something to light the fuse
Fuck my sadness, and fuck your roleplay
No construction, I'll build it my own way
No more subscribing, and no reviews
Fuck our options, and fuck the life plan
No more worry, I killed it with both hands
Just give me something to light the fuse
Fuck my sadness, and fuck your roleplay
No construction, I'll build it my own way
No more subscribing, and no reviews
Fuck our options, and fuck the life plan
No more worry, I've killed it with both hands
Just give me something to light the fuse

What did The Wombats say about "Method to the Madness"?
When that song came around, we thought it was so special, a different change of pace and a different style for us. You know, as soon as we’d released the demo we just thought it was a song we could release out of the blue at any time and make a really cool visual to go alongside it.
It was an oddba...
What have the artists said about the song?
I think “Method to the Madness” is a really special moment for us on the album and a moment for us as a band really. It’s very different for us and I’m really happy that we can push ourselves to those places, as well as coming up with the odd ‘banger’ here and there. I hate that word but it makes se...
What have the artists said about the song?
I wanted to push it and do something a bit different, and then this upright piano riff kind of came. Again, it all just kind of seemed to happen. It’s such a fun song that just keeps on getting crazier and bigger and better.

What have the artists said about the song?
It’s almost like a concept song in a Wombats sort of world. Just before we started making the backing track and the beats, we were listening to some lo-fi hip-hop. It was like that kind of vibe. It was just totally not sounding anything like what Wombats usually sound like and that was really exciti...
