Arctic Monkeys – Perhaps Vampires Is A Bit Strong But... Lyrics
Track 10 on Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
[Verse 1]
I've seen your eyes as they fix on me
What is he doing what on earth is the plan
Has he got one?
You better give me some pointers
Since you are the big rocket launcher
And I'm just the shot gun!
I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it's true
I'm not like you
And I don't want your advice or your praise
Or to move in the ways you do
And I never will
[Chorus]
Cause all you people are Vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you're certain we'll fail
[Verse 2]
I've seen your eyes as they fix on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just so condescending!
Trying to explain that we're on to a win
If the fee we get in near recoups what we're spending
He said "I can't believe that you drove all that way
Well how much did they pay ya
How much did they pay ya?
You'd have been better to stay round our Way
Thinking about things but not actually doing things"
[Chorus]
Cause all you people are Vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you're certain we'll fail
Cause all you people are Vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you're certain we'll fail
All you people are Vampires!
I've seen your eyes as they fix on me
What is he doing what on earth is the plan
Has he got one?
You better give me some pointers
Since you are the big rocket launcher
And I'm just the shot gun!
I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it's true
I'm not like you
And I don't want your advice or your praise
Or to move in the ways you do
And I never will
[Chorus]
Cause all you people are Vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you're certain we'll fail
[Verse 2]
I've seen your eyes as they fix on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just so condescending!
Trying to explain that we're on to a win
If the fee we get in near recoups what we're spending
He said "I can't believe that you drove all that way
Well how much did they pay ya
How much did they pay ya?
You'd have been better to stay round our Way
Thinking about things but not actually doing things"
[Chorus]
Cause all you people are Vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you're certain we'll fail
Cause all you people are Vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you're certain we'll fail
All you people are Vampires!
