Arctic monkeys teddy picker lyrics

Despair up to the point where they provoke

The punchline before they have told the joke,

Can see your desperation to be seen, 

Staring at the television screen.



Despair up to the point where they provoke

You to tell the fucking punchline before you have told the joke.

Sorry sunshine, it doesn't exist,

It wasn't in the top 100 list.



And it's the thousandth time and it's even bolder,

Don't be surprised when you get bent over,

They told ya, but you were dying for it.



She saw it and she grabbed it and it wasn't what it seemed,

The kids all dream of making it, whatever that means.



Another variation on a theme,

A tangle on the television and the magazine.

D'you reckon that they do it for a joke?

D'you reckon that they make 'em take an oath?

That says "We are defenders

Of any poseur or professional pretender around."



When did your list replace the twist and turn?

And the fist, replace the kiss?

Don't concern us with your bollocks, I don't want your prayers,

Save it for the morning after.



And it's the thousandth time and it's even bolder,

Don't be surprised when you get bent over,

He told ya, that you were gagging for it.



Lets have a game on the Teddy Picker,

Not quick enough, can I have it quicker?

Already thick and you're getting thicker.

Lets have a game on the Teddy Picker,

Not quick enough, can I have it quicker?

Already thick and you're getting thicker.



PRESUMING that all things are equal,

Who'd want to be men of the people

When there's people like you?
