I haven't had time to attempt deciphering the lyrics myself but looking at the attempts here, I love the theme. I also love the song musically.

 

I am very very taken with the theme of the album in general. It's extremely timely, I think. It captures a very important message.

Lovin it...you know, pushing the release date back like they did is just hurtful bullshit. We could all have been listening for a week now. Because of The Killers? Really? Like that would have affected it AT ALL...jerks. :)

 

The album release was pushed back because Matt wanted to choose a new artwork, or something like that.

The studio version is much more comprehensible - and there are quite a few unexpected differences.

 

Animal, you're an animal

Don't take anything less

Out of control, you're out of control

Strike those in distress

 

Analyse, advertise

Expand

Bend more rules

Buy yourself an island

 

Animals, we're animals

Buy when blood is on the street

Out of control, we're out of control

Crush those who beg at your feet

 

Analyse, franchise

Spread out

Kill the competition

And buy yourself an ocean

 

Advertise, downsize

Your love

Kill yourself

Come on and do us all a favour

 

The only thing I'm not quite sure on is "your love". He seemed to swap some of the lyrics around for the live version.
