Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys?
We all want someone to shout forYeah, everyone wants somebody to adoreBut your heroes aren't what they seemWhen you've been where we've been
Have I done something to triggerThe funny looks and the sniggers?Are they there at all, or is it just paranoia?
Everybody's got their boxDoing what they're toldYou pushed my faith near being lostBut we'll stick to the gunsDon't care if it's marketing suicidalWon't crack or compromiseYour do-rights or individesWill never unhinge us
And there's a couple of hundredThink they're Christopher ColumbusBut the settlers had already settledYeah, long before ya
Just cos we're having a say-soNot lining up to be playdohOh, in five years time, will it be"Who the fuck's Arctic Monkeys?"
'Cause everybody's got their boxDoing what they're toldYou pushed my faith near being lostBut we'll stick to the gunsDon't care if it's marketing suicidalWon't crack or compromiseYour do-rights or individesWill never unhinge us
[Instrumental]
(La la la la la, la la)(La la la la la, la la)(La la la la la, la la)
All the thoughts that I just saidWill linger round and multiply in their headNot that mad to start withI'm not angry, I'm just disappointed
It's not you it's them that are wrongTell 'em to take out their tonguesTell 'em to take out their tongues...
It's not you it's them that are wrongTell 'em to take out their tonguesTell 'em to take out their tonguesAnd bring on the backlash!
It's not you it's them that are wrongTell him to take out his tongueTell him to take out his tongueIt's not you it's them that's the fakeI won't mess with your escapeIs this really your escape?
