40' Songtext
von Franz Ferdinand

As I glanced once upon the foam
40 feet beneath my feet
The coldest calm falls through the molten veins
Cooling all the blood to slush, congeals around again

Oh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, and 40 feet remain


Salt scales upon my drying arms
Burn my back beneath the sun
And I am cold beneath the burning rays
Looking down, looking down, down, down again

Oh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, and 40 feet remain

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, and 40 feet remain
