Mate! I'm zonked absolutely spent
I think I'm gonna give up my eyes for lent
I'll use my sockets to stock stones instead
And with an icy cold stare I'll hide bones in your bed
Mate! Please accept this invitation
So I can take you away
Cos there's a one in 40 thousand chance
Asteroid Apophis
Will collide with the earth in less that 20 years
Roll up for the knees up business
Yes yes yes ok i think we've heard quite enough from you
Instead of staring at your Stella desperately for inspiration
Belt up and quiver at your indignation
I ain't saying anything that could be construed as an apology
There's another case study of anthropology
Lets announce embargos and denounce our far foes
Ingrowing egos a syntax he knows
It's just a distance that separates us
Or are we really all ethno-centric-ally inclined?
Mate! What the fuck are you going on about?
This is a draconian law I protest
I protest
The herd is rowdy
The squad is vexed
The lyrics ZZZONKED of ENTER SHIKARI is also present in the album Common dreads (2009)
Enter Shikari è una band inglese di post-hardcore formatasi a St Albans, Hertfordshire nel 2003. Il nome della band deriva da un'imbarcazione appartenente ad un parente di uno dei membri e da un personaggio in una pièce teatrale scritta da Roughton "Rou" Reynolds prima della formazione del gruppo, entrambi chiamati Shikari. Shikari significa anche 'Cacciatore' in marathi, persiano, hindi, nepalese, urdu, punjabi e bengali. La band è caratterizzata da un sound energico ed innovativo che fonde elementi di post-hardcore, elettronica, metalcore e rock progressivo. I loro testi spesso trattano temi sociali, politici e personali, con una forte componente narrativa. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "Gandhi", "Ssswith", "The Last Garrison" e "Constellations". L'album di debutto "Take to the Skies" (2007) ha ottenuto un grande successo di critica e pubblico, consolidando la posizione della band nel panorama musicale alternativo.
