The Killers: Battle Born






Billboard Review

Stereo IQ's 10 Best Lyrics From TheKillers' Battle Born

The Killers' Unstaged AMEX show -- September 18, 2012


The early consensus is that:  a.) this is not their best album, and b.) Runaways and Miss Atomic Bomb are the obvious standout tracks.  I agree with the first point, however, the self-proclaimed revolutionary in me puts Be Still at the top as well.

(And of course Prize Fighter, a bonus track, does have some of my favorite lyrics. As detailed below.)


She's a pillar by the day, a fire by the night
She's a famous architect, like Frank Lloyd Wright
When it comes to tightrope walkin', she's world renowned

Her elegance and charm are worthy of praise
And I heard she used to throw for the Oakland A's
She works 268 hours a week, I've yet to meet her match

In the not so flesh: I am curiosity.

I promise something more interesting is in store, but seriously, a robot that takes a picture of itself on Mars, does it get any more me than that?  No.  The answer folks, is no, it does not.


In the flesh.




Vive la Revolution!
