LYRICS
Q: Oui, we?
A: Yes. We are us…
No matter the country
Time humanity adjusts
Eagles Of Death Metal
Soaring high… peace for all
Raptor rapture… a religious nature
Not a single fool
Graduates from Mother Nature’s school
Humor and wit model
Love — the fundamental tool
Inclusive nation foundation
Built on solid rock
You want in? Just knock
“What I did, that evening
What she said, that evening
Fulfilling my hope
Headlong I go for glory… OK”
Nope. Run, run, run runaway!
We, oui. Oui, we.
Psycho killers are dangerous to us
If we become what we hate, it’s too late
Don’t wanna be a psycho killer, too
Nooooo, not me. How ’bout you?
We, oui!
ABOUT THE SONG
Style: ExperiMental Music
Chords: [capo2] E Am / E E7 Am Am7 / B E
Rhythm: Mixed Latin Heavy Metal with some at 104 BPM
Recording: digital 1-track stereo
Inspired by the attack on Paris, France and the fans at an “Eagles Of Death Metal” concert. The song is about psycho killings. Individuals who murder are psycho. It’s not about beliefs, race or religion. You have to be nuts to murder someone.
Additional lyrics are from the Talking Heads’ song “Psycho Killer” (originally in French):
Ce que j’ai fait, ce soir-là
Ce qu’elle a dit, ce soir-là
Réalisant mon espoir
Je me lance vers la gloire… OK
Daniel — Vocals, Martin Guitar, Keyboards, Synthesizers (microKorg, Yamaha PSR-740, Casio WK-3500, miniNova, and a couple pedals, as well as, DigiTech and Boss effects)
