Lyric style?
 
I was just wondering if this song would be considered a particular lyric style which has lines that I can't decipher or if some lines are just meant to be ambiguous?? Can sombody read through and give me their thoughts on the lyrics?

Quote:

Take Aim - Kasabian

Nightmares, oh nightmares come on now
Getting my days all wrong now
Risen from prison an outlaw
Spending our time in the lion's jaw
In the end you sink or swim
I'm eager, I'm eager...

Loving more loving come on now
Socially biting your tongue now
Run down oh run down old houses
Feeding the cats to the mouses

Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Can you see me in the way now
Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Gotta get us out of here

Drop them and give them star prizes
Lock them away in high rises
Held off and called on by truncheons
Rattling keys to the dungeons

Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Can you see me in the way now
Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Gotta get us out of here

Don't take me over
I bid you all farewell
I've got to leave...
Tears on my shovel
Switch me off today

Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Can you see me in the way now
Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Gotta get us out of here

Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Can you see me in the way now
Oh take aim now!
Oh take aim now!
Gotta get us out of here

Don't take me over
I bid you all farewell
I've got to leave...
