Everybody stand up!

I said hey!
Club!
We are the cross of the [C#] cross of the [G#] jam
One in the air, a few men were there
We are the desperate and the decoy
Raised by the best
[C#]
Oh, I never [G#] saw a [C#] long lost friend
My name [G#] above that should [C#] lie
Raised in [G#] the [C#] air, a few roads we got
Left [G#] before terror arrives
[C#] I am a nation, a world terrified
My debt to [G#] status quo
[C#] The size of my [G#] hands and a [C#] fist to it
And the club [G#] I am
[C#] Socio!
[F#] [C#]
I swallowed [F#] my pride and [C#] I shall drown my pain
By giving my eye [G#] and my soul
[C#] I'll keep my fingers and run through my teeth
To fill the rift [G#] damage you saw
[C#] Up into the [G#] edge I'll [C#] drown out the pain
The clubbers shall cover the pain
I started to let it away
Take my time, let it go
Touch the sand
[F#] [G#] Praise [C#] liberty
[F#] Freedom [C#] to obey
[F#] It's a song [C#] that's sang elsewhere
[F#] Well, it's not [G#] gospel [F#] but alright!

Oh, scream, [G#] I [A#] can't scream
[G#] I'm merely what [F#] you see
[A]
From heroes [A#] and [F#m] gods Alright!
