A heart that’s full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won’t heal

You look so tired, unhappy
Bring down the government
They don’t, they don’t speak for us

I’ll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent
Silent

This is my final fit
My final bellyache with
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please

Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please

Arctic Monkeys -Mardy Bum

Well, now then, mardy bum
I’ve seen your frown
And it’s like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh, there’s a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer

It’s one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it’s right hard to remember that
On a day like today when you’re all argumentative
And you’ve got the face on

Well, now then, mardy bum
Oh I’m in trouble again, aren’t I?
I thought as much
‘Cause you turned over there
And pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can’t bear

Well can’t we just laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it’s right hard to remember that
On a day like today when you’re all argumentative
And you’ve got the face on

And yeah, I’m sorry I was late
But I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can’t be arsed to carry on in this debate
That reoccurs oh when you say I don’t care
But of course I do, yeah, I clearly do

So laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen?
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Ah but it’s right hard to remember that
On a day like today when you’re all argumentative
And you’ve got the face on
