Leave Before the Lights Come On
[Verse 1: Alex Turner]
Well, this is a good idea
You wouldn't do it if it wasn't
You wouldn't do it if it wasn't one
Well, my friend fancies you
Oh, what a way to begin it all
You said, "They're always exciting words to hear"
[Chorus: Alex Turner]
And they woke up together not quite realising how
Awkwardly stretching and yawning
It's always hard in the morning
And I suppose that's the price you pay
Well, oh, it isn't what it was
She's thinking he looks different today
And now there's nothing left to guess now
[Verse 2: Alex Turner]
They left before the lights came on
Because they didn't want to ruin
What it was that was brewing
Before they absolutely had to
And how can you wake up
With someone you don't love
And not feel slightly fazed by it?
Oh, he had a struggle
[Chorus: Alex Turner]
And they woke up together not quite realising how
Awkwardly stretching and yawning
It's always hard in the morning
And I suppose that's the price you pay
Well, oh, it isn't what it was
She's thinking he looks different today
And now there's nothing left to guess now
[Bridge: Alex Turner, Alex Turner & Matt Helders]
Well, quick, let's leave before the lights come on
'Cause then you don't have to see
'Cause then you don't have to see what you've done
Well, quick, let's leave before the lights come on
'Cause then you don't have to see
'Cause then you don't have to see what you've done
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro: Matt Helders & Jamie Cook]
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus stop?
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus stop?
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus stop?
I'll walk you up
