Franz Ferdinand Brief Encounters song lyrics

We are bored, we are married, we are young

On the edge of the city, the edge of Ambrosia

Rolls upon, rolls upon, rolls upon the tongue

A certain party, a certain cul-de-sac

A certain outcome, a certain piece of me

Car keys, choose your keys, car keys, choose your keys

Outside alone crossing a perfect lawn

Ah, could it be you? Could it be you?

Could it be you or could it be, this is what freedom is?

We are brief encounters, we all lose our keys

We all choose our partners, we all choose our keys

Car keys, choose your keys, car keys, choose your keys

Pull back, pull back into the drive

Rigid in the matrimonial superking bed

Pretend to sleep, pretend to sleep, come on pretend

Yeah, let's pretend, yeah, let's pretend, yeah

We are brief encounters, we all lose our keys

We all choose our partners, we all choose our keys

Car keys, choose your keys, car keys, choose your keys

Car keys, choose your keys, car keys, choose your keys

Car keys, choose your keys, car keys, choose your keys
