Music video


A video for the song was shot in Joshua Tree and directed by Paul Minor, whose previous music promo work included "Starlight" by Muse. After a number of images were placed on photo-sharing website Flickr, the video in its entirety was added to iFilm on September 26, 2007, a full three months after the single's European release. The video itself is a trailer for a fake movie entitled "3's & 7's" and is shot in a similar style to the exploitation films of the 1960s and the 2007 film Grindhouse. Two versions of the video exist. The first version of the video contained full-frontal nudity. This version was then re-edited to remove all nudity, and the first version was then replaced with version two.

What'd you do? Say it with a smile
Boy, making us all forget
What'd you do? Say it with a smile
Boy, making us all forget
Making us all forget, making us all forget

And the pre-version's lyrics are:

The truth has always had three sides:
Mine, yours and how it went
The truth has always been a lie
but I’m never telling it
Making you all forget
Making you all forget
I swear it to god
