You Probably Couldn't See For The Lights But You Were Staring Straight At Me - Arctic Monkeys

One look sends it coursing through the veins, oh how the feeling races

Back up to their brains to form expressions on their stupid faces

They don’t want to say hello, like I want to say hello

My heartbeat’s at its peak, when you’re coming up to speak

And oh I’m so tense, never tenser

Could all go a bit Frank Spencer

And I’m talking gibberish

Tip of the tongue but I can’t deliver it…

Properly

Oh, it’s all getting on top of me And if it weren’t this dark

You’d see how red my face has gone, yeah

Everybody’s trying to crack the jokes and that to make you smile

Those that claim that they’re not showing off are drowning in denial

But they’re not half as bad as me, say anything and I’ll agree

Cause when it comes to acting up, I’m sure I could write the book

And now that you’re more than a part in the play

It’s slightly easier to think what to say

You had us all standing on our heads

Doing our best tricks, yeah

Never again

Never again

Will there be another one quite as desirable as you?

One look sends it coursing through the veins, oh how the feeling races

Back up to their brains to form expressions on their stupid faces
