Jet skis on the moat
They shot it all in CinemaScope
As though it's the last time you're gonna ride
Showstoppers anonymous
Come over here and give your buddy a hug
So much for deciding not to let it slide
Is there something on your mind?
Or are you just happy to sit there
And watch while the paint job dries?
When it's over, you're supposed to know
Lights out on the Wonder Park
Your saw toothed lover boy was quick off the mark
That's long enough in the sunshine for one night
Didn't recognise ya through the smoke
Pyjama pants and a Subbuteo cloak
You know that it's alright if you wanna cry
Is there something on your mind?
Or are you just happy to sit there
And watch while the paint job dries?
When it's over, you're supposed to know
Jet skis on the moat
They shot it all in CinemaScope
As though it's the last time you're gonna ride

About this song
Arctic Monkeys are an English rock band from Sheffield known for their indie and garage rock sound that rose to prominence in the mid-2000s with Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not. They are fronted by singer-guitarist Alex Turner and later broadened their style with producer-led releases from Josh Homme and genre-shifting concept work like Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino.
