Letra de
Take Me Out

A música Take Me Out da banda Franz Ferdinand foi escrita após a banda ter uma revelação de que faltava uma faixa estilo rock no álbum. Eles procuraram criar algo que fosse dançante, mas que também tivesse influências de bandas como Led Zeppelin. A letra da música fala de forma metafórica sobre dar um passo em relação a alguém, convidar essa pessoa para sair, daí o título Take Me Out.

So if you're lonely
you know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a crosshair
I'm just a shot away from you
and if you leave here
you leave me broken and shattered alive
I'm just a crosshair
I'm just a shot then we can die
Ahhh-ahhh-ahhh
I know I won't be leaving here with you

I say don't you know
you say you don't know
I say take me out
I say you don't show
don't move time is slow
I say take me out
I say you don't know
you say you don't know
I say take me out
If I move this could die
eyes move this can die
I want you to take me out

I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here with you

I say don't you know
you say you don't know
I say take me out
I wane this could die
I wait this could die
I want you to take me out
If I move this could die
eyes move this can die
c'mon take me out


I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here with you
