Lyrics

[Intro: Ewan Davis] (Shall I keep rolling?) [Instrumental Break] [Verse 1: Alex Turner] 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 in't no romance around there And there's the truth that they can't see They'd probably like to throw a punch at me And if you could only see 'em then you would agree Agree that there in't no romance around there [Chorus: Alex Turner] You know? Oh, it's a funny thing, you know We'll tell 'em if you like, we'll tell 'em all tonight They'll never listen because their minds are made up And of course it's all okay to carry on that way [Verse 2: Alex Turner] 'Cause over there there's broken bones There's only music so that there's new ringtones And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes To see it's a little different around here Don't get me wrong though, there's boys in bands And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands And just 'cause he's had a couple of cans He thinks it's all right to act like a dickhead [Chorus: Alex Turner] Don't you know? Oh, it's a funny thing, you know We'll tell 'em if you like, we'll tell 'em all tonight They'll never listen, because their minds are made up And course it's all okay to carry on that way [Bridge: Alex Turner] But I said no, oh no Well, you won't get me to go Not anywhere, not anywhere No, I won't go, oh, no, no [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3: Alex Turner] But over there, there's friends of mine What can I say? I've known 'em for a long long time And they might overstep the line But you just cannot get angry in the same way No, not in the same way Said, not in the same way Oh no, oh no, no [Instrumental Outro]
