“Metroland is Burning”, with its dreamy, nostalgic ‘80s synths, sounds cheery enough on the surface but its lyrics seethe with rage. It’s a youthful fantasy of burning down an amusement park inside a shopping mall. Specifically: Metroland inside the MetroCentre in Gateshead. “Not the place there now...
Metroland is Burning Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They were looking for survivors, hmm
And now they're not
Try to stay together
These are the rules of the game
[Chorus]
I've been waiting for you all my life
But they don't give a flying fuck about us
I've been drinking this since I was eight or nine
But they don't give a flying fuck about us
(Time to play the game)
I am starting the fire
(It's time to play the game)
I am starting the fire
[Verse 2]
Metroland is burning
No God is here
You must start mutating
These are the rules of the game
[Chorus]
I've been waiting for you all my life
But they don't give a flying fuck about us
I've been drinking this since I was eight or nine
But they don't give a flying fuck about us
(Time to play the game)
I am starting the fire
(It's time to play the game)
I am starting the fire
[Bridge]
Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, can you imagine it?
The escalator breathing in a hydra howl
Fire and the money and the power
You left the earth you left us here to burn
These are the rules of the game
These are the rules of the game
These are the rules of the game
These are the rules of the game
[Outro]
And what is Kevin on?
(Gotta know, gotta know, what I'm looking for)
What is Kevin on?
(Gotta know, gotta know, what I'm looking for)
What is Kevin on?

METROLAND - is about burning down the MetroCentre in Gateshead. Yes, I really do mean Metroland is Burning. Wasted youth and being a vandal, and loving it.

What have the artists said about the song?
Alex Robertshaw:
It started out almost like something out of a SEGA Mega Drive. I wanted to use this new drum machine, so I wrote this, and the original version sounds like something off Computer World, just straight-up Kraftwerk. Then I sent it to Jon, and it slowly turned into a band thing. I’ve...
