Follow The Cops Back Home Lyrics - Placebo



Review The Song (9)





The call to arms was never true
Time to imbibe here’s to you
I’ll tell you stories bruised and blue
Of drum machines and landslides

Just one more round before we’re through
More psychedelic yuppie flu
It’s such a silly thing to do
Now we’re stuck on rewind

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

The call to arms was never true
Let’s take a ride and push it through
Suspended animation glue
Blame it on apartheid

Let’s spend the night in Jimmy shoes
I’ll give you coats and cheap shampoo
I’ll give you nothing else to do
Now we’re stuck on rewind

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
and rob their houses

The call to arms was never true
I’m medicated, how are you?
Let’s take a dive, swim right through
Sophisticated points of view

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

awesome | Reviewer: lisa | 11/8/09

I agree with these comments under me
Youknow, Placebo is a special band,
they've got their own style and sound
You love it or you don't
and i totally love it ;)

They are comming to BELGIUM .. awesome

My Brian never ceases to amaze me. Currently considering covering this song on stage. finding it very hard to hit the high notes vocally in the last verse..
I have loved this song ever since i first heard it :)
What a man.



I'm medicated..how are you?.. | Reviewer: bitter.end | 11/15/07

I adore this song. It` my favorite at this moment. Placebo is ... ah, I can`t even find my words... It`s really the Placebo effect.
And the lyrics from this song are amazing.
I won`t even bother to comment about Brian`s voice.
DEVINE!

Let`s take a dive, swim right trough..



beautiful | Reviewer: donald | 10/21/07

never have i heard a band as unique as placebo, this song is one of my favorites. the lyrics speak volumes as the music slowly builds up to the anthemic last repetition of the chorus. i've heard songs about drinking and robbing cops, but none like this one.



le'ts follow the cops back hom | Reviewer: MArio | 8/13/07

one of the most scarry days of my life I was listening to this song inside of me, like someone else would be lettin it be played, I didn't know if my life and the world in my mind was real... It just didn't care... when i hear it now...it takes in that dimension of posibilities... my IMAGINATION that's brian's source of power: hug bubble, evil dildo, some, leelo and the nature of that background feelig-sound in the songs...



Sublime | Reviewer: lore_phoenix | 5/17/07

I'm italian,so my language is very formal.According to me this is one of the better placebo's songs.With the setiment of freedom in heart,with my friends on my side and the help of drogs and alcool..I'm medicated,how are you?..let's take a dive in this life,even if it's more sorrow than other..but let'take the good of it..life,this life..it's sofisticated points of view



Misheard ... | Reviewer: heem | 2/12/07

Thought he was singing "Swallow the Cocks back home" at first, hence my visit to this page. Glad its erm straightened me out.



Agreed | Reviewer: Pat | 9/1/06

I agree with andrew. This is a fucking awesome song... im in awe.. im medicated how are you?



what a song | Reviewer: Andrew | 7/5/06

Placebo released meds and as soon as i bought it this song stood out as a possible classic this would have to be possibley there best song. Brian Molko makes this song what it is with a superb guiter and lyrics which are amazing go out and buy the album 'meds'!!!
