If You Were There, Beware - Arctic Monkeys

If you were there beware the serpant soul pinchers

Three hundred and fifty no thank yous and nobody flinches

Go on girl go on, give us something gruesome

We require your grief for thugs and the thiefs

As they're trying to rob the words from her gob

And take the source of the innocence

And if you were there beware the serpant soul pinchers

You can't you said she was never meant to fill column inches

And you had enough what you're trying to dig up isn't there to be dug

The thiefs and the thugs

As they're trying to be the digger graves of her sweet heart

and to the point she'll comply

And I leave her on her own

If I'd of known then I wouldn't have said it

I wouldn't have said it if I'd have known

And I leave her on her own

If I predicted tears then I wouldn't have said it

I wouldn't have said it if I had known

There's a cirlce of witches ambitiously vicious they are

And our attempts to remind them of reason wont get us that far

I don't know what it is that they want

I don't know what it is that they want

But I haven't got it to give

She hasn't got it to give
