The Ultimate Fling- Poets Of The Fall
Today it’s in the air again,
Today another incident that just went off.
No way, this time I will not take the blame,
It’s pretty obvious who needs to shut up.
Ashtrays filled with the fruits of our transgressions,
Here and there sarcasm overflows.
To stay, I need the sitcom to be rerun
Till I get the gist of just how it goes.
So what would you have me do?
Chorus.
Give me a reason, come on and make my day,
Cos I’m out of cheeks to turn the other way.
Ask yourself just how lucky do you feel?
Somehow I’ve been blindsided by my own
Kindhearted notion of just who we are.
No doubt we have collided anyway
With me indicted and you raising alarm.
First round I’ll take my bows into my corner,
Take my vows, regroup and run back again.
Blood hound and of no better pedigree
Than what you see, so you could not offend.
Did I act like a fool cos I didn’t know what to do when you gave me just a little bit more than I bargained for,
A little too much in my hands when my hands are tied.
It’s the ultimate fling to go frolicking, licking the muck from the soles of the boots of your pride.
Every time you lied !
Chorus.
Give me a reason, come on and make my day,
Cos I’m out of cheeks to turn the other way.
Ask yourself just how lucky do you feel?
Ooh, yeahh, give me a reason.
Yeah, make my day.
(Cos someones gota pay)
Can you give me a reason.
I’m moving into grace
Something i can hold on, at the end of the day.
Cos I can’t move on till, I know whats the deal.
Chorus.
Give me a reason, come on and make my day,
Cos I’m out of cheeks to turn the other way.
Ask yourself just how lucky do you feel?
Give me a reason, come on and make my day,
So come out please now, someones gota pay.
Ask yourself just how lucky do you feel?

Shouldn't it be "I'm not no better pedigree…"?
Thanks for the correction !
"Bloody hell" .. really doesnt sound like he says that..
thanks for the lyrics so early on =)
sounds like he says
"blood hound and of no better pedigree"
"incident that just went up"
"hands are tied"
"Cos I’m out of cheeks"
Thanks nat and Mangrim for pointing out. The second stanza caught noise upon radio stream saving.
Blood hound and of no better pedigree (changed. Thanks to Mangrim)
incident that just went up (changed. Thanks to Mangrim)
hands are tied (changed. Thanks to Mangrim)
Cos I’m out of cheeks (somebody please confirm this)
Check this http://www.poetsofthefall.com/music/POTF_The_Ulti…
You can hear cheeks easier, plus it makes sense.
i thought i was the only poets of fall fan.. lol.
The 160kbps sample was enough to hear "cheeks" instead of "cheats".. post edited. Again thanks to Mangrim. If anybody finds some other errors around. feel free to correct me !
Sarmad,
Believe me, you aren't the only poets fan
I have personally recruited hundreds of new poets fans here in the UK… and more every day
Third to last paragraph, last line:
"Cuz I can't move on 'til I know what's the deal."
NuttySqurrel.. absolutely correct..! post edited
@simon
thanks for the comment mate. certainly they rock when they sing.. but i havent impressed by their live performance.. checkout youtube to see some. Mark looks like gay sometimes i don know why am sayin this.. lol
Just one more quick "error" though with gramma…
"Iam moving into grace"
It should be "I'm moving into grace"
I have seen them live, and I can say the experience is better in person rather than on video…. I will grant you Mark does look gay sometimes…. but hey…. that's the metrosexual way (lol).
Just out of interest…. how many people reading this discovered Poets via "Max Payne 2"?
"Cos I can move on til, I know whats the deal."
I'll let you figure out the minor error on that line
Not nit-picking… just in case you think I am (lol)
Oh and congratulations on having the number 1 google search result for the term "The Ultimate Fling Lyrics". Should bring up those visits quite nicely.
hey Simon, sorry for commenting late bud..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bdHmSft7T8
everything fades is an awesome track but seeing this live, i feel like kicking Mark.. (excuse me)
he don't even look metrosexual in this vid.. its a pure homo.. lol
til changed to till.. kindly confirm if its "Cos I can't move on till".. "can move on till" isn't suiting the overall lyrics..
Thanks Simon for correcting me twice..
Well am not traffic conscious for my personal blog though.. i wont be placing any shitty ads or something like that. However its great to see people find me a huge POTF fan.
And ya.. forgot to answer. i guess everybody recognize Poets from Max Payne 2. Even i do. You know what? during game play i never took notice of the song being sung by cleaners (lol) but after i killed Vladimir Lem and the final graphic novel views were over, the credits rolled up with late Goodbye as background track.. A serious Max Payne gamer certainly knows what was the feeling after Mona's death and listening to Late Goodbye
I agree…. he does look totally homo (no offence to anyone) in that vid. The line is indeed "Cos I can't move on 'til" (yes… gramatically my apostrophe is correct before the "t")
On the topic of Max Payne 2…. I didn't really pay much attention to the cleaner singing it on my first run through the game…. nor the thugs playing it on the piano. It wasn't until the first time I completed it (within 4 hours of buying the game) that I saw the credits….. I was gobsmacked that a game has a proper soundtrack and that the track was ACTUALLY GREAT!
Immediatley went online, searched the lyrics to find the song title and thus the band…. then bought their first album…. not turned back since.
I can't wait for their full album. Guess they have started recording it.
new album 26th march…Revolution Roulette
yeah.. hope it would be as good as the ultimate fling !
Chorus seems to be from the famous scene of Dirty Harry: "Do you feel lucky?" "Make my day, punk!"
guess this is what you talking about
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YykfDFEk3y8
nice find, but even the main lyrics are inspired from that, the song feels good !
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-0BVT4cqGY&fe… Actually, i meant this one, but there is not much difference!
It seems like "make my day" is not heard until 4th Dirty Harry :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9LaUP5au9U
lol.. hope we wont find Mark acting in "Dirty POTF" anytime sooner
Brilliant song, this. Didn't think it was any good first time I listened, then the second was amazing and I've listened to it so many times since then. In that proverbial question of the five things to save in a fire, I would take my POTF CDs without a doubt.
I thought of Dirty Harry as well when I heard the "lucky" line. I can hear Clint Eastwood in my head, saying it… over and over and over…
Marko looking gay is definitely not a bad thing!
Keep posting stuff like this i really like it
For some reason, and not just because of the chorus, but does anyone else think "Dirty Harry" whenever this song plays? I think Marko's totally talking about Harry, but I could be wrong. :3
