Arctic Monkeys - Balaclava lyrics
[Arctic Monkeys - Balaclava lyrics]
Running off over next door's garden
Before the hour is done
It's more a question of feeling than
It is a question of fun
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you'll baffle 'em good
Will the ending reek of salty
Cheeks and runny makeup alone?
Or will blood run down the face
Of a boy bewildered and scorned
And you'll find yourself in a skirmish where
You wish you'd never been born?
You tie yourself to the tracks and
There isn't no going back
And it's wrong, wrong, wrong
But we'll do it anyway 'cause we
Love a bit of trouble
Are you pulling her from a burning building
Or throwing her to the sharks?
Can only hope that the ending is
As pleasurable as the start
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you'll baffle 'em straight
And it's wrong, wrong, wrong
But she can hardly wait
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform and
The daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform and
The daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Well, you'll be able to boast
Of the day of the most
Flawless heist of all time
You knew that it'd be trouble right
Before the very first kiss
Quiet and unassuming but you heard
That they were the naughtiest
She pleaded with you to take it
Off but you resisted and fought
But sorry, sweetheart
I'd much rather keep on the balaclava
Before the hour is done
It's more a question of feeling than
It is a question of fun
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you'll baffle 'em good
Will the ending reek of salty
Cheeks and runny makeup alone?
Or will blood run down the face
Of a boy bewildered and scorned
And you'll find yourself in a skirmish where
You wish you'd never been born?
You tie yourself to the tracks and
There isn't no going back
And it's wrong, wrong, wrong
But we'll do it anyway 'cause we
Love a bit of trouble
Are you pulling her from a burning building
Or throwing her to the sharks?
Can only hope that the ending is
As pleasurable as the start
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you'll baffle 'em straight
And it's wrong, wrong, wrong
But she can hardly wait
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform and
The daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform and
The daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Well, you'll be able to boast
Of the day of the most
Flawless heist of all time
You knew that it'd be trouble right
Before the very first kiss
Quiet and unassuming but you heard
That they were the naughtiest
She pleaded with you to take it
Off but you resisted and fought
But sorry, sweetheart
I'd much rather keep on the balaclava
