Night of the Long Knives - Lyrics
Hold me on this, night of the long knives
There’s a flood on the street, there’s a tide, and it’s coming in now
Yet the concrete burns at the back of your skull
And they say it’s a wave but it feels like a dribbling mouth
There’s a light-bulb flicker but it never goes on
Yes the bomb may be falling
If it lands where you’re stood
Man I know it’s real big shame about your neighbourhood
I’m the wrong kind of people
Why’d you listen to me?
Just the island a’breathing in and out and it was a long time coming!
It was a long time coming!
[IT’S COMING]
There’s a car overturned and it isn’t stopping anytime soon
But the front seat sure beats licking some toads
And the sparks make the dark uncanny like a living cartoon
What the hell do you mean when you talk about roads?
Yes the bomb may be falling
If it lands where you’re stood
Man I know it’s real big shame about your neighbourhood
I’m the wrong kind of people
Why’d you listen to me?
Just the island a’breathing in and out and it was a long time coming!
It was a long time coming!
[IT’S COMING]
Hold me on this, night of the long knives
I’ve been dying all my life!
It was a long time coming.

@@kelvinfoote9897 yeah I noticed this with everything everything scores of viewers who rate them saying they are under rated . Ok they may not be number 1 in America (who knows could still happen ) but they definitely have an audience ,record deal and promotional budget . They received two Mercury nominations ,have been covered numerously in the music media had their fair share of plaudits . I don't know exactly in what capacity they are under rated . I certainly always get round to hearing their tunes . I think Cough Cough is amazing but this one is working its way in my brain . I think lots of people and journalists rate them .

Because there isnt a set of tits or ass being flashed at the front, the lyrics are too meaningful and require listening... I sound cynical but modern music only becomes popular with the involvement of controversy, sex or drugs/alcohol. Art is a dying media and the world will pay for it.

@billybhoy 79 I dunno. Foals are like EE's contemporaries, quite a similar band in a way (Jez even played bass on their 2019 tour) and they've had more chart success than EE. They're an all white guitar band. There's plenty of white people in the charts. I think EE haven't had tons of mainstream success because a) they're kind of a bit too arty and b) they haven't really managed to break the US. They deserve to, they could go in the same sort of category as Vampire Weekend who are very popular.

(I believe) the song is talking about The Night of the Long knives in abstract way. There is a venom in the song that borders near passive aggressive, “It’s a shame about your neighbourhood” “It’s been a long time coming” Idk, might just be me.

The black and white with the sparse bits of colour and flashing everywhere give it a very twentieth century feel to the video, almost pre-Cold War, which is probably exactly what they were going for given the song and the subject matter This song is amazing and this band is perfect! I hope to catch them next time they're in the US!

I was so boring, without inspiration.... Then I heard this song and I feel alive..... Thanks music for your infinity love... So beautiful
Great choice for the next single. Fantastic song. Please never stop making quirky, creative and beautiful music
Only discovered this band last week. Man oh man I am addicted to this song. It’s so so so good
I’m obsessed with this song. My love for them is real!!
I remember hearing this on MTV when it was first released, such a good song
If you get a chance to see them, they do an incredible live show. Saw them in Boston last night and it made my life. I don’t even like shows. 😅

I just love you so much. I am from England, I discovered you there and I have brought you with me through all my travels, I now live in Mexico and frequently play your music here too. Your music plays right to my core. I was visiting the UK in the Spring time and had tickets to see you at the UEA but the snow meant the gig was cancelled. It is one of my life's ambitions to see you live, alongside seeing whales in the wild. You are as inspiring as whales in the wild. I love you all so much, don't ever stop!
Who needs breakfast when EE drops a video when you wake up
The fact that more people don't know about this band annoys me..
i haven't heard one bad song from this band they're so underrated
My god this and are underrated, only discovered them a couple a weeks ago and can't believe how many great songs they have!
This band never disappoint. Ever.
We are all very lucky to be alive at the same time that this band exists and is creating music
This has really helped me during these times of conflict in America. Lyrically and instrumentally, so representative of the chaotic nature of the historical event it is named after. And slaps! You guys are effortlessly becoming one of my favorite bands.
One of the best songs on the album behind Ivory Tower

I love this band, been listening to them for a while, so unique!
this is just sooooo fucking good, i dont know how it doesnt have at least 1 million views, this deserves more
Wish these dudes would visit more than 5 major cities in the US during their tour. Would fucking love to see them live!
you know what? this band deserves astronomical recognition
this is my first sound of your band that I hear, is amazing.
Dove into A Fever Dream and fell in love completely. What a great band, musical geniuses. Incredible, gets me so damn hyped
Not what I was looking for this time, definitely what I’m looking for next time! I was looking up Info to study about the night of the long knives of 1934 and instead found this, great song!
Love them. Seen them a number of times live - never ever disappoint !
This video terrified me but i was so mesmerised that i still watched it all.
I wanna see y'all live again aaaaaa y'all always blow me away. this song is my fav off the new album, iconic
You guys are so good! Can't wait to hear your new album coming out soon!
this a bomb ass song
Absolutely amazing! Never heard anything like this!!
The Night of the Long Knives (German: About this sound Nacht der langen Messer ), also called Operation Hummingbird (German: Unternehmen Kolibri) or, in Germany, the Röhm Putsch[a] (German spelling: Röhm-Putsch), was a purge that took place in Nazi Germany from June 30 to July 2, 1934, when the Nazi regime carried out a series of political extrajudicial executions intended to consolidate Hitler's absolute hold on power in Germany. Many of those killed were leaders of the Sturmabteilung (SA), the Nazis' own paramilitary organization, colloquially known as the "Brownshirts" due to the color of their uniforms. The best-known victim of the purge was Ernst Röhm, the SA's leader and one of Hitler's longtime supporters and allies. Leading members of the left-wing Strasserist faction of the Nazi Party (NSDAP), along with its figurehead, Gregor Strasser, were also killed, as were establishment conservatives and anti-Nazis, such as former Chancellor Kurt von Schleicher and Bavarian politician Gustav Ritter von Kahr, who had suppressed Adolf Hitler's Munich Beer Hall Putsch in 1923. The murders of SA leaders were also intended to improve the image of the Hitler government with a German public that was increasingly critical of thuggish Brownshirt tactics
