Evacuate now

Every day we're fighting
And we're causing bolts of lightning
Like a hot and cold collision in the sky

Illegitimi non carborundum
If you cared, there'd be love in the air
Pharmaceuti-government got your mind and your thoughts
Can you feel where's your spine?

Evacuate now, 'cause this storm's out for blood
Build a shelter for your kind
And protect the ones you love

It seems that
Every day we're fighting
And we're causing bolts of lightning
Like a hot and cold collision in the sky
It seems that
Every day we're fighting
And we're causing bolts of lightning
Like a hot and cold collision in the sky

You think your fellas, co-conspirators, got your back
When the fear they dispatch comes from a diffident path?
What of them, opponent ready to pass?
When the cloud clears we'll be standing here

Get down in your basement
These sirens are loud
Lock the doors and eat the key
To elude the things you'd see
Take notice
Everybody's frightened by the radically enlightened
And they say to jump still you reply, "How high?"

Evacuate now, cause this storm it is out for blood
Build a shelter for your kind

Evacuate now
Evacuate now

Every day we're fighting
And we're causing bolts of lightning
Like a hot and cold collision in the sky
It seems that
Every day we're fighting
And we're causing bolts of lightning
Like a hot and cold collision in the sky

Get back in your basement
Oh, bury your head in blankets
Unless you don't believe in waking up
'Cause this fight will break all over you

Evacuate now

Great melody....{#Dancingbanana}
cute but seems weak in actual content
the melody is kind of random to me.....
maybe it will grow on me.

Not quite.  Popular and accessible, very much so.   Clever with great harmonies. Wish more pop songs were this good.

Mmmmm hmmm!  8!
Ooh. Upbeat, nice tempo. Strong bass line. Intriguing falsettos. And I can dance to it. 95.

OK, but not after Chris Isaak and The Doors.  Might sound better with different songs.
Buy this CD!  Really good stuff with amazing vocal arrangements   {#Music}

Yay! Another Republic Tigers song on RP! The best known song from this album is Buildings and Mountains, but the rest of the album is excellent, too.
 
ditto that — all around solid LP.

i am impressed with their vocal harmonies... a little "disco-y" but i can dig it. 
Sounds like New Pornographers meet White Stripes.

Not sure what I think of this but I'll give it a 7 for now.
waiting 4 this 2 pass
I was busily working when I realized that this is a new song and that I was rather enjoying it. 
It's okay. Took a while for it to get going, in my opinion.
I like what I've heard from them so far.
