Wrestlers

Wrestlers is the tenth song featured on the album, Made In The Dark.

Trivia

 * This R&B influenced track came about after vocalist/keyboardist Alexis Taylor got a text message from LCD Soundsystem supremo James Murphy. Joe Goddard (vocals, synthesiser, percussion) told the Sun newspaper February 1,2008: "Al (fellow Hot Chipper Al Doyle) had been on tour with LCD last year and then Alexis got a text from James, saying, 'Sorry you can't have Al back, I'll wrestle you for him. And I'll beat you because I'm bigger and stronger than you.' And so the words in that song are about wrestling and we have no doubt that James Murphy would kill us all in wrestling."

Lyrics

 * It's me versus you in love
 * We'll tag team, double up
 * Hit you in the sweet spot
 * And make you wish you'd buffed up
 * The gloves are off


 * We've been messing around
 * Breaking us a man down
 * But while you've got us on the ropes
 * We plan to play the mess around
 * He's technically trained
 * You've got him buckled up and he will misbehave
 * You weigh bigger and trained
 * But I've got the power and the glory in my burly brains
 * The gloves are off


 * So why you gon' have to fight dirty?
 * Don't fight dirty, don't hit me with the chair
 * The gloves are off


 * So why you gon' have to fight dirty?
 * Don't fight dirty, don't bite me in the face
 * The gloves are off


 * Now whatcha gonna do when I come for you with all that I've got?
 * I've got a roll of coins I'm aiming for your loins and I will never stop


 * I learned all I know from watching the wrestling
 * I think you think I'm about to throw the towel in


 * Here comes Four Jack,
 * Watch your back, watch your back
 * He'll charm you with the double ax
 * And then he brings the tire tacks
 * He's not dressed for a cage
 * He's robed in garments strictly for another age
 * Here we come, drop kick
 * Half nelson, full nelson, Willie Nelson, Willie Nelson


 * Body slam, suplex, head lock, summer slap
 * Elbow drop, belly flop, cage match, grudge match


 * It's me versus...


 * I learned all I know from watching the wrestling
 * I think you think I'm about to throw the towel in
 * Everyone knows Monday night means wrestling
