”My propeler” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys If you can summon the strength, tow me I can’t hold down the urgency You’ve got to make your descent slowly And oil up those sticky keys Coax me out, my low And have a spin of my propeller It’s a necessary evil No cause for emergency Borrowed the beak of a bald eagle Oh, momentary synergy Coax me out, my low Sink into tomorrow Coax me out, my low And have a spin of my propeller My propeller won’t spin And I can’t get it started on my own When are you arriving? My propeller won’t spin And I can’t get it started on my own When are you arriving? My propeller won’t spin And I can’t get it started on my own When are you arriving?

Arctic Monkeys – ”505”
”505” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys I’m going back to 505 If it’s a seven-hour flight or a 45-minute drive In my imagination, you’re waiting lying on your side With your hands between your thighs Stop and wait a sec’ Oh, when you look at me like that, my darling, what did you expect? I’d probably still adore you with your hands around my neck Or I did last time I checked Not shy of a spark The knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark Frightened by the bite, though it’s no harsher than the bark The middle of adventure is such a perfect place to start I’m going back to 505 If it’s a seven-hour flight or a 45-minute drive In my imagination, you’re waiting lying on your side With your hands between your thighs But I crumble completely when you cry It seems […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”The Bad Thing”
”The Bad Thing” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys Do the bad thing Take off your wedding ring But it won’t make it that much easier It might make it worse Oh, the night’s like a whirlwind Somebody’s girlfriend’s talking to me, but it’s alright She’s saying that he’s not gonna slap me or try to attack me He’s not the jealous type And I only need to get half an excuse, and I’m away But when there’s no excuses, that’s much easier to say I’ve been before And all these capers make us too good for her to ignore See, she’s talking, but I’m not entirely sure Do the bad thing Take off your wedding ring But it won’t make it that much easier It might make it worse Oh, a sudden disheartener Somebody’s partner’s talking to me But I don’t know that is what she isn’t She murmurs things to […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”That’s where you’re wrong”
A pussyfooting setting sun Make a wish that weighs a tonne There are no handles for you to hold And no understanding where it goes Jealously in Technicolor Fear by name, love by numbers Streetlamp amber, wanderlust Powder in a blunderbuss She looks as if she’s blowing a kiss at me And suddenly the sky is a scissor Sitting on the floor with a tambourine Crushing up a bundle of love Don’t take it so personally You’re not the only one That time has got it in for, honey That’s where you’re wrong All the old flames fastened on Make a wish that weighs a tonne There are no handles you can hold And no understanding where it goes She looks as if she’s blowing a kiss at me And suddenly the sky is a scissor Sitting on the floor with a tambourine Crushing up a bundle of love Don’t […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”R U mine?”
I’m a puppet on a string Tracy Island, time-travelin’ diamond cutter-shaped heartaches Come to find you four in some velvet mornin’ years too late She’s a silver linin’, lone ranger ridin’ through an open space In my mind, when she’s not right there beside me I go crazy ‘cause here isn’t where I wanna be And satisfaction feels like a distant memory And I can’t help myself All I wanna ever say is, „Are you mine?” Well, are you mine? Are you mine? Are you mine? Oh, ah I guess what I’m tryin’ to say is I need the deep end Keep imaginin’ meetin’, wished away entire lifetimes Unfair we’re not somewhere misbehavin’ for days Great escape, lost track of time and space She’s a silver linin’, climbin’ on my desire And I go crazy ‘cause here isn’t where I wanna be And satisfaction feels like a distant memory And […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Secret Door”
”Secret Door” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys Fools on parade cavort and carry on for waiting eyes That you would rather be beside than in front of But she’s never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares She swam out of tonight’s phantasm Grabbed my hand and made it very clear „There’s absolutely nothing for us here” It’s a magnolia celebration to be attended on a Wednesday night It’s better than to get a reputation as a miserable little tyke At least, that’s the conclusion, she came to in this overture And the secret door swings behind us She’s saying nothing She’s just giggling along Her arms were folded the most indignant Not looking like she was soon to leave I had to squint in order to believe And then, like a butler pushing on a bookshelf, I’m unveiling the unexpected I, who was earlier reluctant, was suddenly embarrassed […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Black Treacle”
”Black Treacle” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys Lately I’ve been seeing things Belly button piercings In the sky at night When we’re side by side And I don’t mean to rain on anybody’s cabriolet One of those games you’re gonna lose But you wanna play it, just in case Now it’s getting dark and the sky looks sticky More like black treacle than tar Black treacle Somebody told the stars you’re not comin’ out tonight And so they found a place to hide Does it help you stay up late? Does it help you concentrate? Does it tune you in when you chew your chin? Am I ruining your fun? And you talk the talk alright But do you walk the walk or catch the train? You wanted it, you got it But you don’t want it now Now it’s getting dark and the sky looks sticky More like black treacle […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Only Ones Who Know”
”Only Ones Who Know” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys In a foreign place, the saving grace was the feeling That it was a heart that he was stealing Oh, he was ready to impress and the fierce excitement The eyes are bright, he couldn’t wait to get away And I bet that Juliet was just the icing on the cake Make no mistake, no And even if somehow we could have Shown you the place you wanted Well, I’m sure you could have Made it that bit better on your own And I bet she told a million people that she’d stay in touch Well, all the little promises, they don’t mean much When there’s memories to be made And I hope you’re holding hands by New Year’s Eve They made it far too easy to believe That true romance can’t be achieved these days And even if somehow we could […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Arabella”
”Arabella” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys Arabella’s got some interstellar gator skin boots And a helter-skelter ‘round her little finger, and I ride it endlessly She’s got a Barbarella silver swimsuit And when she needs to shelter from reality, she takes a dip in my daydreams My days end best when the sunset gets itself behind That little lady sittin’ on the passenger side It’s much less picturesque without her catchin’ the light The horizon tries, but it’s just not as kind on the eyes As Arabella, oh As Arabella Just might’ve tapped into your mind and soul You can’t be sure Arabella’s got a ’70s head But she’s a modern lover, it’s an exploration she’s made of outer space And her lips are like the galaxy’s edge And her kiss the colour of a constellation fallin’ into place My days end best when the sunset gets itself behind That little […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Cornerstone”
”Cornerstone” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys I thought I saw you in The Battleship but it was only a look alike She was nothing but a vision trick under the warning light She was close, close enough to be your ghost But my chances turned to toast when I asked her if I could call her your name I thought I saw you in The Rusty Hook, huddled up in a wicker chair I wandered over for a closer look and kissed whoever was sitting there She was close and she held me very tightly until I asked awfully politely „Please, can I call you her name?” And I elongated my lift home Yeah I let him go the long way round I smelt your scent on the seat belt and kept my short cuts to myself I thought I saw you in The Parrot’s Beak messing with the smoke alarm […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Dancing Shoes”
”Dancing Shoes” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys Get on your dancing shoes There’s one thing on your mind Hoping they’re looking for you Sure you’ll be rummaging through Oh and the shit, shock, horror You’ve seen your future bride Yeah, but it’s oh so absurd For you to say the first word so you’re waiting and waiting and The only reason that you came So what you scared for? Well, don’t you always do the same? It’s what you there for, don’t you know? The lights are flashing Down in here tonight And some might exchange a glance But keep pretending to dance Don’t act like it’s not happening As if it’s impolite To go and mention your name Instead you’ll just do the same as they all do and hope for the best The only reason that you came So what you scared for? Well, don’t you always do the […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Don’t sit down cause I’ve moved your chair”
Break a mirror, roll the dice Run with scissors through a chip pan fire fight Go into business with a grizzly bear But just don’t sit down ‘cause I’ve moved your chair Find a well known hard man and start a fight Wear your shell suit on bonfire night Filling a circular hole with a pen that’s square But just don’t sit down ‘cause I’ve moved your chair Ooh, yeah yeah yeah Ooh, yeah yeah yeah Bite the lightening and tell me how it tastes Kung fu fighting on your roller skates Do the Macarena in the devil’s lair But just don’t sit down ‘cause I’ve moved your chair Ooh, yeah yeah yeah Ooh, yeah yeah yeah Ooh, yeah yeah yeah Compozitori: Alex Turner.

What’s been happenin’ in your world? What have you been up to? I heard that you fell in love, or near enough I gotta tell you the truth, yeah I wanna grab both your shoulders and shake, baby Snap out of it (snap out of it) I get the feelin’ I left it too late, but, baby Snap out of it (snap out of it) If that watch don’t continue to swing Or the fat lady fancies havin’ a sing I’ll be here waitin’ ever so patiently For you to snap out of it Forever isn’t for everyone Is forever for you?

Arctic Monkeys – ”Fluorescent adolescent”
You used to get it in your fishnets Now you only get it in your night dress Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness Landed in a very common crisis Everything’s in order in a black hole Nothing seems as pretty as the past though That Bloody Mary’s lacking in Tabasco Remember when you used to be a rascal? Oh, the boy’s a slag, the best you ever had The best you ever had is just a memory And those dreams weren’t as daft as they seem Aren’t as daft as they seem, my love When you dream them up Flicking through a little book of sex tips Remember when the boys were all electric? Now when she’s told she’s gonna get it I’m guessing that she’d rather just forget it Clinging ‘til I’m getting sentimental Said she wasn’t going, but she went still Likes her gentlemen not to be […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Mardy Bum”
Well, now then, mardy bum I’ve seen your frown And it’s like looking down the barrel of a gun And it goes off And out come all these words Oh, there’s a very pleasant side to you A side I much prefer It’s one that laughs and jokes around Remember cuddles in the kitchen Yeah, to get things off the ground And it was up, up and away Oh, but it’s right hard to remember that On a day like today when you’re all argumentative And you’ve got the face on Well, now then, mardy bum Oh I’m in trouble again, aren’t I? I thought as much ‘Cause you turned over there And pulling that silent disappointment face The one that I can’t bear Well can’t we just laugh and joke around? Remember cuddles in the kitchen Yeah, to get things off the ground And it was up, up and […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”This house is a circus”
This house is a circus, berserk as fuck We tend to see that as a perk Though, look what it’s done to your friends Their memories are pretend And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end This house is a circus, berserk as fuck We tend to see that as a perk Though, look what it’s done to your friends Their memories are pretend And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end There’s a room for the trouble and there’s lovers to be had Those walls will make sinners out of such lovely lads Scaling the corridors for maidens in the maze And in the anomaly, you’ll slip into familiar ways And we’re Forever unfulfilled And can’t think why Like a search for murder clues In dead men’s eyes Forever unfulfilled And can’t think why Like a search for murder […]
Arctic Monkeys – ”Crying Lightning”
„Crying Lightning” Melodie de: Arctic Monkeys Outside the café by the cracker factory You were practicing a magic trick And my thoughts got rude As you talked and chewed On the last of your pick’n’mix Said, „You’re mistaken if you’re thinking that I haven’t been called ‘cold’ before” As you bit into your strawberry lace And offered me your attention in the form of a gobstopper It’s all you had left and it was going to waste Your pasttimes consisted of the strange And twisted and deranged And I loved that little game you had called „Crying Lightning” And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons The next time that I caught my own reflection It was on its way to meet you Thinking of excuses to postpone You never looked like yourself from the side But your profile could not hide The fact you knew […]
