[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]
People are always saying how do you do to you
And they don't know what's on your mind
You'll get fat running on the beaten track
Cause dice can change your mind
Well I rolled it a long the floor one night
And have you ever been a bad bad man
Caught up in the beat she had the devils dancing feet
As the tears flew to lover's eyes
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]

[Outro]
Don't let them tell you that you don't matter
Life's more than a chip shop wrapper
They don't like what you do

Bassist Kieren Webster opened up on the meaning of the song:
That’s a song about how just cause you’re bored, you end up getting tempted. It’s about the stuff that you do when you’re out. The stuff that you regret the next day. The line ‘Once a broken promise on my bone’ – I still can’t move my han...
