My Story

No.1 Party Anthem -  Arctic Monkeys

So you’re on the prowl wondering
whether she left already or not
Leather jacket collar popped like antenna,
never knowing when to stop
Sunglasses indoor par for the course,
lights in the floors
and sweat on the walls
Cages and poles

Call off the search for your soul
or put it on hold again
She’s having a sly indoor smoke,
She Calls the folks who run this
her oldest friends,
Sipping her drink
and laughing at imaginary jokes
as all the signals are sent
Her eyes invite you to approach
and it seems as though those lumps
in your throat that you just swallowed
have got you going

Come on, come on, come on
Number one party anthem

She’s certified mind blower
knowing full well that I don’t
I may suggest that there’s somewhere
from which I might know her
just to get the ball to roll
Drunken monologues, confused because
It’s not like I’m falling in love
I just want you to do me no good
And you look like you could

Come on, come on, come on
Number one party anthem
Come on, come on, come on
before the moment’s gone
Number one party anthem

The look of live
The rush of blood
The “she’s with me”
The Gallic shrug
The shutterbugs
The camera plus
The black and white
And the colour dodge
The good time girls
The cobicles
The house of fun
The number one party anthem

Come on, come on, come on
before the moment’s gone
Number one party anthem

 Knee Socks - Arctic Monkeys

You got the lights on in the afternoon
And the nights are drawn out long
And you're kissing
to cut through the gloom
With a cough drop coloured tongue
And you were sitting in the corner
with the coats all piled high
And I thought you might be mine
In a small world on
an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
In the right place and time

When the zeros line up
on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's calling
even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks

Well you cured my January blues
Yeah you made it all alright
I got a feeling
I might have lit the very fuse
That you were trying not to light
You were a stranger in my phone book
I was acting like I knew
'Cause I had nothing to lose
When the winter's in full swing and
your dreams just aren't coming true
Ain't it funny what you'll do

When the zeros line up
on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's calling
even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks

The late afternoon
The ghost in your room that
you always thought didn't approve
of you knocking boots
Never stopped you letting me get hold
of the sweet spot by the scruff of your
Knee socks

You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Like the beginning of Mean Streets
You could Be My Baby

(All the zeros lined up but
the number's blocked when
you've come undone)

When the zeros line up
on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's calling
even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks

D is for Dangerous - Arctic Monkeys

He knew what he wanted to say
But he did not want to word it
The dirty little Herbert
Was thinking an escape
But the place was well guarded

The guiltyness that started
Soon as the other part had stopped

D is for Delightful
And try and keep your trousers on
I think you should know you're his favourite worst nightmare
D is for...

Desperately trying to stimulate what it was that was alright
3 quarters of an hour ago
That had led him to be in a position
And every compromission
Another freak episode

He's near in the brink but he thinks first
The parallel universe perhaps could be the perfect scene
He's near in the brink but he thinks first
The parallel universe perhaps could be the perfect scene
He's near in the brink but he thinks first
The parallel universe perhaps could be the perfect scene
He's near in the brink but he thinks first
The parallel
I think you should know you're his favourite worst nightmare

D is for delightful
and try and keep your trousers on
you should know you're his favourite worst nightmare
