| The Shikari's Top Lyrics
As Enter Shikari evolved through trance and dubstep influences, becoming more political and then more personal, one thing has remained consistent: their use of individual, irreverent and downright bizarre lyrics. Sometimes to re-enforce a serious point, others to make you smile, these are some of my favourites. | | 1 |  | Enter Shikari
Take to the Skies
Return To Energiser
You look like you rented a smile from someone, but you rented the wrong size. Take it back. | | 2 |  | Enter Shikari
The Spark
Rabble Rouser
I'm on stage with a face like a sack of screwdrivers. | | 3 |  | Enter Shikari
Common Dreads
Wall
I'm gonna paste you up, cover you in wallpaper, screw shelves into you and call you a wall. | | 4 |  | Enter Shikari
The Mindsweep
Slipshod
This is a shambles, your cook is a heathen, your carpet is ugly and your veg ain’t in season. | | 5 |  | Enter Shikari
A Flash Flood of Colour
Gandhi Mate, Gandhi
Yabba dabba do one son! | | 6 | | Enter Shikari
The Spark
An Ode To Lost Jigsaw Pieces
I miss them like the majority of modern mainstream music misses an original metaphor for missing someone. | | 7 | | Enter Shikari
Take to the Skies
No Sssweat
Not even salt can make your hands taste good. I'm still crunching your lifeline | | 8 | | Enter Shikari
Common Dreads

The Mindsweep

You fucking spanner! | | 10 | | Enter Shikari
Take to the Skies
Sorry You're Not A Winner
Scratch card glory or waist low pleasure? | | 11 | | Enter Shikari
The Spark
Take My Country Back
Sparking fury against one's neighbor, twisting the truth with a blamethrower | |
Kingdok
04.11.20 | Had to squeeze in the blamethrower line, always brings to mind Mystery Men. | kalkwiese
04.11.20 | Omg I love all of these. Good job | ChoccyPhilly
04.11.20 | Feel like these are more belters than they are genuinely good lyrics. Dont get me wrong, I will happily shout these out when I see them live in Nov but some of my fave lyrics?
"Now I'll boldly go into the great unknown"
"Countries are just lines drawn in the sand with a stick"
"I dont want the glass I want to see the truth. I want to see your body"
"No one owns the oceans, no one owns the mountains..."
"For when I dive into your iris... My brain erupts"
And of course...
"Your carpet is ugly and your veg ain't in season" | bloc
04.12.20 | GET ME THE MANAGERRRRRRRRRRR | onionbubs
04.12.20 | "the idea of community will be something displayed in a museum" has really stood out recently
