Yours Truly, Angry Mob is the second album by English rock band Kaiser Chiefs. It was released on 23 February 2007 in Belgium and the Netherlands, on 26 February 2007 in the rest of the world and in late March in North America. The album was preceded by the release of lead single "Ruby" on 19 February (see 2007 in British music).[1][2][3] It became the band's first (and to date, only) number one album in the British album charts.

Once again produced by Stephen Street, producer of the band's debut album Employment, Yours Truly, Angry Mob is lyrically darker and more socially aware than its predecessor, with tracks dealing with street crime, violence, fame, and the inaccuracy of tabloid articles.

The band had earlier revealed to NME in October 2006 that they had recorded 22 songs and hoped to whittle that number down to 13 or 14 for the final album.[4] Additionally, in July 2006 the band revealed to Gigwise that they'd hoped to have the album released by Valentine's Day 2007.[5] The album was leaked in its entirety on February 21, 2007. The album was criticised by Blur frontman Damon Albarn, who likened it to his own record The Great Escape.

Lyrics:
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could be a nurse

It seems so sensible
For us to keep the purse strings tight
And move the decimals
A couple of places to the right

And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
It seems most sensible
But not exactly what we'd like

What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
Its just seven days
Feels like a week

What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Our life could be worse
You know, we all could be cursed

I Can't help feel like this
So don't rearrange it
I don't mean to be a dick
I just don't like the changes

I can not help the things I say
You know wouldn't to strangers
But I don't like going away
Cos it puts me in danger

I can tell you now
There ain't a problem can't be solved
With a good old fashioned row
So grit your teeth and stand your ground

And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
But I'm still waiting for
The man to come with all my things

What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
It's just seven days
Feels like a week

What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could leave in a hearse
