Lyrics

[Verse 1: Alex Turner] We all want someone to shout for Yeah, everyone wants somebody to adore But your heroes aren't what they seem When you've been where we've been Have I done something to trigger The funny looks and the sniggers? Are they there at all Or is it just paranoia? [Chorus: Alex Turner, Alex Turner & Matt Helders] 'Cause everybody's got their box Doing what they're told You push my faith near being lost But we'll stick to the guns Don't care if it's marketing suicide We won't crack or compromise Your derisory divides Will never unhinge us [Verse 2: Alex Turner] And there's a couple of hundred Think they're Christopher Columbus But the settlers had already settled Here long before you Just 'cause we're having a say-so Not lining up to be Play-Doh Oh, in five years' time will it be "Who the fuck's Arctic Monkeys?" [Chorus: Alex Turner, Alex Turner & Matt Helders] 'Cause everybody's got their box Doing what they're told You push my faith near being lost But we'll stick to the guns Don't care if it's marketing suicide We won't crack or compromise Your derisory divides Will never unhinge us [Interlude] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da [Verse 3: Alex Turner] All the thoughts that I just said Linger 'round and multiply in the head Not that bad to start with I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed [Bridge: Matt Helders, Alex Turner] It's not you, it's them that are wrong Tell 'em to take out their tongues Tell 'em to take out their tongues It's not you, it's them that are wrong Tell 'em to take out their tongues Tell 'em to take out their tongues And bring on the backlash [Bridge: Alex Turner] It's not you, it's them that are wrong Tell him to take out his tongue Tell him to take out his tongue It's not you, it's them that's the fake I won't mess with your escape Is this really your escape? Yeah [Instrumental Outro]
