I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The first thing that she said
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate
The one that used to get you in bother
But one you could never bring yourself to hate
And she said we've got that spark
That only lights a fuse
Helps you see in the dark
But it's a sight you'll lose when
The temptation greets you like your naughty friend
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
Temptation greets you like your naughty mate
One that made you steal and set things on fire
But one you haven't seen of late
And I said that kind of talk
Only adds intrigue
To the cauldron of thought
It's already exceeding
Temptation, the very thing that held her back
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
I don't ever want to hate you
It's not part of the plan
So keep your charm where I can't see it
And your hands where I can
We used to be in tight me and my naughty friends
Caused enticement in the air
I mean day 'n' night
We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight
Smoking, drinking, joyriding
Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding
Reckless gangsters, no direction
No sign of correction
But then I switched it off
Changed my ways
What the hell
Like oh my days
But like my naughty friends
They're not phased
Can't believe that this music pays
See no reason why we can't do
All the things we've always done
Still in my heart I know that's just what
But its hard to fight the temptation son
The panic will fall down around you
If you don't do what I say
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
I don't ever want to hate you
It's not part of the plan
So keep your charm where I can't see it
And your hands where I can
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The first thing that she said
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate
The one that used to get you in bother
But one you could never bring yourself to hate
And she said we've got that spark
That only lights a fuse
Helps you see in the dark
But it's a sight you'll lose when
The temptation greets you like your naughty friend
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
Temptation greets you like your naughty mate
One that made you steal and set things on fire
But one you haven't seen of late
And I said that kind of talk
Only adds intrigue
To the cauldron of thought
It's already exceeding
Temptation, the very thing that held her back
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
I don't ever want to hate you
It's not part of the plan

I'm absolutely in love with this song, its amazing! But I dont think its about friends I actually think it's about meeting someone that you know thats no good for you but you really dont want to see his/her bad side! Its like that naughty friend that always gets you in trouble, but you still like..
Or sumthin like that..
i'm sure it's
"and i said that kind of talk only adds intriuge to the cold on the floor over the exceeding temptation the very thing that held her back "
i'm not sure its "to the cold on the floor" but i can't figure it out.
and.. i'm sure dizzees bit is..
"we used to be tight, me and my naughty friends cause pure madness in the end, i mean day and night we rob we stole we love to fight smokin drinkin ... drugs .... reckless monsters no direction no sign no correction but then i switch it off, change my ways well they'll envy like all my days but like my naughty friends they're not phased can't beleive that this music pays see no reason why we can't do all the things we've always done still in my heart i know thats just wrong but its hard to fight the temptation, son"
i don't know the bits with ...
and its "your hands where i can" throughout it.
is this song meant to be on the new album? because it isn't on mine
never mind just read that it is a b-side
it's on the brianstorm EP.
Bloody genius!!!!! I love this song!! Sooooo catchy!
"and i said that kind of talk only adds intriuge to the cauldron of thought over the exceeding temptation the very thing that held her back "
