I came to meet you off the Western Line
We hailed a taxi to save drinking time
It's hustle bustle, don't you feel the rush?
The law can't touch us with their flimsy brush

And that's why I persist
Where others can resist temptation
To be with you
I'm going to keep the cosmic trigger-happy
Keep the cosmic trigger-happy
Keep it real

I know the doorman at the Hippo Club
(He's called Paul)
He let us in for free to hear the dub
(He engineered us once on a track called Don't Be A Fool, Billy)
We drank a double at the upstairs bar
(On Fierce Panda Records)
Then headed downstairs coz it's better by far

And that's why I persist
Where others can resist temptation
To be with you
I'm going to keep the cosmic trigger-happy
Keep the cosmic trigger-happy
Keep it real

And that's why I persist
Where others can resist temptation
To be with you
I'm going to keep the cosmic trigger-happy
Keep the cosmic trigger-happy
Keep it
Keep it
Keep it real

Quote (Gruff):
"It's quite an embarrassing title, but I wanted to be ambitious, so I wrote something on a cosmic scale. It's ridiculously happy, a song about being in love and going out to the Hippo Club in Cardiff and feeling bullet-proof and unstoppable. We could have finished the album with something epic and massive, but we felt we did that with the last one and we want all the albums to be different, not to follow a particular formula. So this is our concise, crisp album and we wanted to end it on an upbeat note."
