Sketchead Songtext

von Arctic Monkeys

Sketchead
He's coming to your party
He's walking up your drive
& he's swinging all his keys 'round
Sketchead
He's seen you with your top off
He already knows your boyfriend
Retain your introductions
Sketchead
That cumbersome protagonist
The pips in your quince
They are behind the spoil
The itch you can't itch in your ear

& the knock that shattered your packet of peppermints
Sketchead
There's poison in his spit
He'll compliment your tits
& leave you to your wits
Sketchead
Convincingly insisting
The tires were bald
When you gave him the car
Sketchead

Still coming to your party

Still walking up your drive
& still swinging all his keys 'round on his finger
As a pendulum to unnerve
& then there's you
You've changed
I approach you like you were the same
But soon it was apparent a new name was required
New lips went & fired accomplishments at me
While I'm captivated by your magazine skin
The tint on your limbs is obscures to begin
& you know full-well
That anyone who says that
They don't prefer the sequel
Will still be swinging on themselves tonight
