What You Meant Songtext
von Franz Ferdinand

As I took a step number four
Into the close of your tenement
You cast your darkened eyes so low
Said we′re cold as the step cement

Oh, but I just don't know
Oh, What you meant

What you meant
So Alec you may want a pill
We are so cruel to communicate
Without the red stuff being spilled

We must MDMA our sentiment
But I just don′t know
What you meant


What you meant
What you meant
If we were feckless we'd be fine
Sucking hard on our innocence

But we've been bright in our decline
Been left as blackened filament

But I just don′t know
I don′t know
No, I don't know
No, I don′t know what did you mean
No, I don't know what did you mean

No, I don′t know what did you mean
No, I don't know
To get away from, I got to get away from you
I feel blood inside the vein
I feel life inside the ligament
I feel alive, yeah, just the same
Same vigour and the same intent
But I just don′t know
Oh if that's what you meant
