Arctic Monkeys Article: Fluorescent Adolescent (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

tu used to get it in your fishnets
Now tu 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 a Tabasco
Remember when he used to be a rascal?

Oh that boy's a slag
The best tu ever had
The best tu ever had
Is just a memory and those dreams
Not as daft as they seem
Not as daft as they seem
My amor when tu dream them up...

Flicking through a little book of sex tips
Remember when the boys were all electric?
Now when she tells she's gonna get it
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it
Clinging to not getting sentimental
dicho she wasn't going but she went still
Likes her gentlemen to not be gentle
Was it a megadobber o a betting pencil?

Oh that boy's a slag
The best tu ever had
The best tu ever had
Is just a memory and those dreams
Weren't as daft as they seem
Not as daft as they seem
My amor when tu dream them up
Oh, where did tu go?
Where did tu go?
Where did tu go? Woah.

Falling about
tu took a left off Last Laugh Lane
tu just sounded it out
You're not coming back again.

Falling about
tu took a left off Last Laugh Lane
tu just sounded it out
You're not coming back again.

tu used to get it in your fishnets
Now tu only get it in your night dress
Started all the naughty nights with niceness
Landed in a very common crisis
Everything's in order in a black hole
Everything was pretty in the past though
That Bloody Mary's lacking in tabasco
Remember when he used to be a rascal?

A Certain Romance (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks
Or knackered Converse
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks
But all of that's what the point is not
The point's that there isn't no romance around there

And there's the truth that they can't see
They'd probably like to throw a puñetazo, ponche at me
And if tu could only see them, then tu would agree
Agree that there isn't no romance around there

You know, oh it's a funny thing tu know
We'll tell them if tu like
We'll tell them all tonight
They'll never listen
Cause their minds are made up
And course it's all okay to carry on that way

Over there there's broken bones
There's only...

The View From The Afternoon (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Anticipation has the habit to set tu up
For disappointment in evening entertainment but
Tonight there'll be some love
Tonight there'll be a rawkus, regardless of what's gone before
I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
The lairy girls hung out the window of the limousine
And of course its fancy dress
And they're all looking quite full on
In bunny ears and devil horns

I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
I want to see tu take the jackpot out the frutas machine
And put it all back in
You've got to understand it tu can never beat the bandit

And she won't be surprised...

This House Is a Circus (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

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 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 they want is for the feeling to end

Looking for trouble and there's enamorados to be had
Those ones siguiente to us are such lovely lads
Scaling the corridors for maidens in the maze
And the anomaly is slipping into familiar ways
And we're forever unfulfilled
Can't...

Perhaps vampiros Is A Bit Strong But... (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Well I've seen your eyes as they FIX on me
What is he doing? What on earth's the plan? Has he got one?
You'd better give me some pointers
Since tu are the big rocket launcher and I'm just the shotgun

Well I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it's true
That I'm not like tu and I don't want your advice
Or your praise o to mover in the ways tu do
And I never will

Cause all tu people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though tu pretend to stand por us
I know you're certain we'll fail

Well I've seen your eyes as they FIX on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just...

Mardy Bum (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Now then Mardy Bum
I see 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 día 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 tu turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear

Can't we...

Fake Tales Of San Francisco (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the room
More point to a wedding disco
Without a bride o groom

There's a super cool band yeah
With their trilbys and their glasses of white wine
And all the weekend rock stars in the toilets
Practicing their lines

I don't want to hear you
(Kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear tu no
(Kick me out, kick me out)

Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the air
And there's a few bored faces in the back
All wishing they weren't there

And as the microphone squeaks
A young girl's telephone beeps
Yeah she's dashing for the exit
she's running to the streets outside
"Oh...
