Way Down In the Hole Lyrics

How many colors does she need to know
When you're way way way down in the hole
When the night time comes round
When the night time comes around
When the night time comes round
In the night

If fortune sides with him who dares
A life in bliss in the Garden of Eden
One bad kiss from Casanova, prestige over, keep the claws
He may be old but his mind's like a razor
Dissipate, disappear like vapour
Cufflinks on a chartered curator
Haven the wager

Work your life, don't ask why
Give your mother good goodbye
Show me where you run and hide
Drop your gun, fix your tie
Don't you know the price is low?
(Fire in the hole)
Way down in the hole
Told you once, told you twice
La de da, roll the dice
I'm gunna tell you twice


[?] but a young man in a suit
Silhouettes and recruits
Snakes in the bushes were none the wiser
Lost direction I'll come to Dada
Call on the doctor, bring on the healing
Insert the brother, hit the kill switch
View my crime but nothing published
Choir-boys singing, my demise it's hunting season
(It's hunting season)
(It's hunting season)
(It's hunting season)
(It's hunting season)

Formed in Scotland in 2008 by Alloysious Massaquoi, Kayus Bankole and Graham 'G' Hastings, the group started performing in nightclubs when the band members were all still in their early teens. In 2012, they signed to LA based label, Anticon and released their introductory mixtapes, Tape One and Tape Two. The trio then signed to Big Dada and released debut album, Dead, which was released in 2014. The album gained a lot of critical attention and went on to win the prestigious Mercury Prize. Following an extensive world tour the band decamped to Berlin to begin work on their sophomore album, White Men Are Black Men Too, which was released in April 2015.

In 2016, the band were invited to support Massive Attack on their UK and European tour after working together on Massive Attack’s single “Voodoo In My Blood”, which was released in January 2016.

Young Fathers feature 6 tracks on the Trainspotting T2 soundtrack, including “Only God Knows”, written specifically for the film.

In November 2017 the band announced that they had finished work on their third album to be release on Ninja Tune in early 2018. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
