In For The Kill - La Roux

We can fight our desires
Ouuhh… but when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Ouuhh whether we like it or not
They say we can love who we trust
Ouuhh but what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
Ouuhh… and what are feelings without emotions?

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I had my hopes out on the line
Ouuhh… will they be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long
Ouuhh they’ll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks
Ouuhh… my words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Ouuhh can this bridge cross the ocean?

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand

Let’s go on to make me
Let’s be cool to creating
Up in darkness we can see
And you’re not blind from the light from me

I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand.

This song makes me want to smash my head against a concrete wall from beginning to end.

Jess, that’s so funny – I have the EXACT SAME reaction to it. I have to listen to it at the Bally’s where I work out here in Miami all the time. That high-pitched voice. That stupid chorus. I’m open minded about music and have very eclectic tastes, but this song really makes me want to smash my head against the wall and THEN the TV playing the video. I Googled the lyrics today, just so I could find out who sings the damn song and never buy ANYTHING by this group.
