Club Foot
Kasabian Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One, take control of me?
You're messing with the enemy
Said it's two, it's another trick
Messin' with my mind, I wake up

Chase down an empty street
Blindly snap the broken beats
Said it's gone, with the dirty trick
It's taken all these days to find you

Ah
I'll tell you I want you
Ah
I'll tell you I need you

Friends take control of me
Stalking 'cross the gallery
All these pills got to operate
The color quits and all invade us

There it goes again
Take me to the edge again
All I got is a dirty trick
I'm chasing down the wolves to save you

Ah
I'll tell you I want you
Ah
I'll tell you I need you
Ah
The blood ain't on my face
Ah
Just wanted you near me

Ah
I'll tell you I want you
Ah
I'll tell you I need you
Ah
The blood ain't on my hands
Ah
Just wanted you near me

I'll tell you I want you
I'll tell you I need you




The blood ain't on my hands
Just wanted you near me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kasabian's song "Club Foot" speak to the idea of being manipulated and controlled by an external force. The singer addresses this force, which they call "the enemy," and expresses frustration with their attempts to mess with the singer's mind. The theme of control is expressed through the repetition of the phrase "take control of me," which appears in the chorus and throughout the song.


The second verse introduces the idea of addiction, with the singer referencing pills that "got to operate" and the need to "chase down the wolves" to save someone. This sense of urgency and desperation is conveyed through the dynamic music and fast-paced lyrics.


Overall, "Club Foot" is a powerful song that speaks to the idea of struggling to maintain control in the face of external forces. The lyrics are somewhat ambiguous, leaving it up to the listener to interpret their meaning, but the raw energy and emotion of the song make it a standout track for Kasabian.
