A little disappointed I didn't get to see an actual lemon to a knife fight, but gotta say that The Wombats have the best story telling music videos around.
I remember listening Wombats back in middle school. A guide to Love, Loss and Desperation was my shit. I just started listening to them again. God it’s like every single song is good. And that’s rare in a band. Fucking amazing.
Hero to zero I pick up the bill The brake lights cast a red light And the road twists round the hill Lipstick on the backseat Saliva on the dash I've clawed my way out of here before But I keep on coming back I push and you tend to shove I give in and you don't give up I'm not getting out of here this time I brought a lemon to a knife fight I kick and you like to punch I'm unhinged and you're undone I'm not getting out of here alive I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh Hero to zero at 60mph My eyes are getting wider with every word you say Intoxicated, higher than the ISS I've clawed my way out of here before But tonight I'm turning left I push and you tend to shove I give in and you don't give up I'm not getting out of here this time I brought a lemon to a knife fight I kick and you like to punch I'm unhinged and you're undone I'm not getting out of here alive I brought a lemon to a knife fight I brought a lemon to a knife fight I push and you tend to shove I give in and you don't give up I'm not getting out of here this time I brought a lemon to a knife fight I kick and you like to punch I'm unhinged and you're undone I'm not getting out of here alive I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh I brought a lemon to a knife fight
The first time I heard this song I think everyone else heard it to , my poor neighbours , see you guys Friday the 1st feb at Wembley can’t wait , this 50 year old loves your music big time
Heard Matthew Murphy on the radio. He wrote this song for his strong headed wife and according to him, he has never won an argument with her. This song was inspired by one of those heated arguments he had with her while driving home one night on a country road and "lemon to a knife fight" is a reference to his inability to win any argument with his wife. And as for the video, the werewolf represents his vicious wife I guess and the lyrics make much more sense after knowing the context.

Okay hear me out. I've been watching this video for the past like 5 hours (no seriously. that's not an exaggeration.) and I've noticed things each time. First, the guy's necklace. It's a wolf. It could be a coincidence if you don't think about it, but after you've watched the video it kind of changes the meaning. The necklace could have been anything. A bear, a shark, hell, a wombat. But it was a wolf. A few seconds after we see the necklace the guy looks at his watch and glances out the window at the moon. Foreshadowing? Whatever he's heading towards has a time frame that needs to be met. When the car pulls up to a small field there's a group of people waiting, suggesting this kidnapping thing was pre-planned. She's untied and told to run, given a head start. I highly doubt this is the first time these people have done something like this. After she's a little far off they get into position and line up their shotguns, and wait for the signal. The signal, as far as we know, is when the clouds have completely moved from the full moon, giving them the best visibility. But I don't think it was just about their visibility. I think these people kidnap people they know to be werewolves and hunt them for sport. They have to do it on cloudy full moons, when the werewolf is suppressed. When the clouds move from in front of the moon there's a split second during the transition for the hunters to shoot where the person they're hunting isn't human (so it isn't like, straight up murder) but isn't an indestructible werewolf. What happened that night? I think they waited too long. I think the guy who gave the order had impaired judgement. I don't know how much he drank on the way there but that's my best guess. It's a shitty one but it's the only one I've got. Something else I noticed, but I could be missing stuff. She only kills the guys? Like.... seriously. I've rewatched just that part over and over and it's just the guys being dismembered and slaughtered to fucking bits. If anyone wants to analyze that. Okay that's all I have, if you've actually read everything you're a true saint and you deserve all the sweets and good luck because that was a train wreck.
ok when i saw this i thought about lemon demons song called KNIFE FIGHT so lemon demon view monster reference?!?! i wonder if they where inspired by that song

a lemon is another term for a bad car. The song is about a car (among other things)
honestly your videos are getting darker and darker and im 100% here for it
Violence is fun
I met him and he’s just lovely
🙋♀️ me too
i've read this plot from a book before im pretty sure
AMK, Wombats, Lumineers is my current jam
If I've learnt anything from Wombats music videos, it's that don't assume who's good and bad until the second chorus kicks in.
I would still say that based on what little info we got from the music video, I'm comfortably on the werewolf girl's side 😎
@@Awesomesauce1_8_6_4 how could you spoil me the video like this!
One of the most consistent bands the UK has to offer, every album as good as the last, every music video as good as each other.
That's one heck of a twist. :)
Just came across the video…very cool, love it. Great acting as well…how about a part two?!?
Just like Greek Tragedy, damn with the surprise twist yet again! I loved it
bentep0511 the video of greek tragedy was a lot better
This is honestly one of my favourite songs I can’t stop listening to it
Such a fricking tune ....not enough airtime !!!

Hero to zero
I pick up the bill
The brake lights cast a red light
And the road twists round the hill
Lipstick on the backseat
Saliva on the dash
I've clawed my way out of here before
But I keep on coming back
I push and you tend to shove
I give in and you don't give up
I'm not getting out of here this time
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I kick and you like to punch
I'm unhinged and you're undone
I'm not getting out of here alive
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
Hero to zero at 60mph
My eyes are getting wider with every word you say
Intoxicated, higher than the ISS
I've clawed my way out of here before
But tonight I'm turning left
I push and you tend to shove
I give in and you don't give up
I'm not getting out of here this time
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I kick and you like to punch
I'm unhinged and you're undone
I'm not getting out of here alive
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I push and you tend to shove
I give in and you don't give up
I'm not getting out of here this time
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I kick and you like to punch
I'm unhinged and you're undone
I'm not getting out of here alive
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
Nice
Goddammit Emperor...
The first time I heard this song I think everyone else heard it to , my poor neighbours , see you guys Friday the 1st feb at Wembley can’t wait , this 50 year old loves your music big time
i am not exaggerating when i say this is the most happy positive uplifting and inspiring video i have ever seen in my life
also i love lemons and tennis balls (the latter on behalf of my dog)
was not expecting that. love the twist.

Quality tune. Blown away when it came on the radio that much I had to pull over.
Man I love Spotify for showing me this song
Homie has got to be one of the best lyricists i've had the pleasure of listening to.

Jada Gotwalt lol respect the effort
Jada Gotwalt you took to much Adderall
It's actually about giving a victim an upper hand. 🐺 🐺 🐺
you need to get some sleep my dude
@@luked8449 I tore him to bits months ago. He's sleeping now
I was today years old when I realized the lyrics are not, in fact "I've brought a lemon to a lime fight"
Dude how its the name of the song
@@scoutbite4334 I'd just always heard the song without knowing the name of it
🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
I always thought it meant: „ive brought a melon to a knife fight“ and was like who does that? xD
@@mrgubbi583 tbf bringing a melon makes about as much sense as bringing a lemon
was expecting lemons, got werewolves instead,
not disappointed
someone brought a gun to a werewolf fight tut tut
Was it Chris Argent?
Pizza -inator 3000 no t’was Robson Green
Pizza -inator 3000 Okay that made no sense but I’m sorry Being Human > Teen Wolf
Tisk tisk
The seagull 😭
I saw the title and I wondered if this song was a reference to Lemon Demon and their song Knife Fight hahahah. Both are very good songs!!
One of the Best Short Film Horror Movies... Kudos to The Wombats & the Crew creating it.
