Kaiser Chiefs - The Angry Mob
"The Angry Mob" is a song by English indie band Kaiser Chiefs and is the title track to their second album, Yours Truly, Angry Mob. The name "The Angry Mob" is also the name of the band's fanclub and is possibly the inspiration for the band's blog. The song was released in the UK as the third single from Yours Truly, Angry Mob on 20 August 2007. The song discusses the way in which the media encourage knee-jerk reactionary thinking, and the way society at large keeps people under control via the tabloids and 24-hour drinking culture. The video depicts the working-class hen-night culture and culminates in two separate hen parties coming together in a "gang war" style fight after they have been banned from a high-class restaurant 'NOBLESSE' at the request of the upper middle-class diners. The diners gather at the window to enjoy the spectacle of the two groups that have turned on each other, however the hens then decide to unite to confront the diners instead. Despite only reaching #22 in the UK Singles Chart (the lowest peaking single by the band since the original release of "I Predict a Riot"), it has received significant airplay on contemporary radio stations.
Lyrics:
I can prove anything
I'll make you admit, again and again
That I can prove anything
The way that it's writ, again and again
And it's only 'cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
It's only 'cos you follow what the others do
It's no excuse to say you're easily led
You could choose anything
And you choose to lose, again and again
And you could do anything
But why should you do anything again
And it's only 'cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
You're winding yourself up until you're turning blue
Repeating everything that you read
So here we go with a letter
Can you fix it for me?
Because we need entertainment
To keep us all off the streets
So tonight you'll sleep softly in your beds
You could try anything
And no one would know apart from you and me
You could stop anything
It starts with just one and turns to two then three
And it's only 'cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
You'll raise a glass until you raise a fist or two
And get a shopping basket wrapped round your head
So here we go with a letter
Can you fix it for me?
For twenty-four hours drinking
To keep us all off the streets
So tonight you'll sleep softly in your beds
We are the angry mob
We read the papers every day
We like who we like
We hate who we hate
But we're also easily swayed
(Repeat 8x)
