Arctic Monkeys - Despair in the Departure Lounge lyrics
[Arctic Monkeys - Despair in the Departure Lounge lyrics]
He's pining for her in a people carrier
There might be buildings and pretty things to
See like that but architecture won't do
Although it might say a lot
About the city or town
I don't care what they've got
Keep on turning 'em down
It don't say the funny things she does
Don't even try and cheer him up
Because it just won't happen
He's got the feeling again
This time on the aeroplane
There might be tellies in the back
Of the seats in front
But Rodney and Del won't do
Although it might take your mind off
The aches and the pains
Laugh when he falls through the bar
But you're feeling the same
'Cause she isn't there to hold your hand
She won't be waiting for you when you land
And it feels like she's just nowhere near
You could well be out on your ear
This thought comes closely followed
By the fear and the thought of it makes
You feel a bit ill
Yesterday, I saw a girl who looked like
Someone you might knock about with
And almost shouted
And then reality kicked in within us
It seems as we become the winners
You lose a bit of summat
And half wonder if you want it at all
And don't say owt 'cause you've got no idea
And she's still nowhere near
And the thought comes closely
Followed by the fear
And the thought of it makes
You feel a bit ill
Despair in the departure lounge
It's one and they'll still be around at three
No signal and low battery
What's happened to me?
There might be buildings and pretty things to
See like that but architecture won't do
Although it might say a lot
About the city or town
I don't care what they've got
Keep on turning 'em down
It don't say the funny things she does
Don't even try and cheer him up
Because it just won't happen
He's got the feeling again
This time on the aeroplane
There might be tellies in the back
Of the seats in front
But Rodney and Del won't do
Although it might take your mind off
The aches and the pains
Laugh when he falls through the bar
But you're feeling the same
'Cause she isn't there to hold your hand
She won't be waiting for you when you land
And it feels like she's just nowhere near
You could well be out on your ear
This thought comes closely followed
By the fear and the thought of it makes
You feel a bit ill
Yesterday, I saw a girl who looked like
Someone you might knock about with
And almost shouted
And then reality kicked in within us
It seems as we become the winners
You lose a bit of summat
And half wonder if you want it at all
And don't say owt 'cause you've got no idea
And she's still nowhere near
And the thought comes closely
Followed by the fear
And the thought of it makes
You feel a bit ill
Despair in the departure lounge
It's one and they'll still be around at three
No signal and low battery
What's happened to me?
