Lyrics: 

Threatened by the law,
I crawled in a comfortable lap
Crucified by love,
I fell in a predictable trap.
All at what cost?
All I could think about was that.
And all that was lost,
That I've seen in dreams.

Simple as 1 2 3 4, 
methodical persuasion
I know you've done this before,
You've mastered the equation.
But you'll only hurt yourself, not me.
And anyone you've done it to before,
You'll also bear the weight of.
I don't need to settle the score,
You are the perpetrator.
You'll judge yourself, you'll never be free.

The cheater never wins,
Even if he ends the game with the highest score.
And the liar never knows love,
You can't earn that through force.
I know the illusion of power
Just leaves you needing more.
In your loneliest hour,
You'll be haunted by me.

Simple as 1 2 3 4, 
methodical persuasion
I know you've done this before,
You've mastered the equation.
But you'll only hurt yourself, not me.
And anyone you've done it to before,
You'll also bear the weight of.
I don't need to settle the score,
You are the perpetrator.
You'll judge yourself, you'll never be free.

lyrics

you wanna meet me downtown,
and i got visions that we could entertain.
i see you coming back round, it was a sure shot now
we could break it down every day.
i mean really break it down-
don't fake it when you take it there in every way.
if i can make it down, we could make it loud
but you need to listen to me.

you know i know that we go way beyond these years
you'll go i'll go but we know, we'll always meet right here

it was a show down, i had to throw down
i felt something coming for me
but what we know now, is when it goes down
it's easy to get up and leave
but while the time slips away, i know we are in this indefinitely
don't be a fool now, we need to cool down
you'll remember when you look at me baby

you know i know that we go way beyond these years
you'll go i'll go but we know, we'll always meet right here
why you out there chasing them when you know i'm irreplaceable,
my love, gonna be so clear
you know i know that we go way beyond these years

we all grow tired of circles and spirals
running, running always
so when we find our one true admirer
there's time it may take to engage, forever
ooh, to feel like heaven can bind you
that terrifies you, turns clouds into flames
and you may walk away but never forever
when we return, it's like we never missed a day

you know i know that we go way beyond these years
you'll go i'll go but we know, we'll always meet right here
why you out there chasing them when you know i'm irreplaceable,
my love, gonna be so clear
you know i know that we go way beyond these years

i mean really break it down-
don't fake it when you take it there in every way.
if i can make it down, we could make it loud
but you need to listen to me.

you know i know that we go
you'll go i'll go but we know

why you out there chasing them when you know i'm irreplaceable,
my love, gonna be so clear
you know i know that we go way beyond these years

U Know I Know

Chromeo return with a special edition of their new single, 'Hot Mess,' featuring a vocal collaboration with La Roux's Elly Jackson. This new version has been remixed by Duck Sauce, the breakthrough side project of A-Trak and Armand Van Helden, fresh off the success of their Prince of Tides-inspired single 'Barbara Streisand.'
 
Meanwhile, Djedjotronic - one of the rising stars in the Boysnoize camp - delivers two stripped-down party jackers, while Riva Starr takes things down to Electronic Boulevard with a lovingly funky homage to Eddy Grant.
 
If you haven't already, be sure to check out the fantastic video for 'Hot Mess' directed by Surface 2 Air.
