    Arctic Monkeys - Crying Lightning

    Outside the cafe by the cracker factory you were practicin' a magic trick
    And my thoughts got rude as you talked and chewed
    On the last of your pick and mix

    Said you're mistaken if your thinkin' that
    I haven't been caught cold before as you bit into your strawberry lace
    And then a flip in your attention in the form of a gobstopper
    Is all you have left and it was goin' to waste

    Your past times consisted of the strange and twisted and deranged
    And I love that little game you had called cryin' lightnin'
    And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons

    The next time that I caught my own reflection
    It was on it's way to meet you thinkin' of excuses to postpone
    You never look like yourself from the side but your profile did not hide
    The fact you knew I was approachin' your throne
    With folded arms you occupy the bench like toothache
    Saw them, puff your chest out like you never lost a war
    And though I try so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction
    There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw

    And your past times consisted of the strange and twisted and deranged
    And I hate that little game you had called cryin' lightnin'
    And how you like to aggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons
    Uninvitin' but not half as impossible as everyone assumes
    You are cryin' lightnin'

    Your past times consisted of the strange and twisted and deranged
    And I hate that little game you had called cryin' lightnin', cryin' lightnin'
    Cryin' lightnin', cryin' lightnin'

    Your past times consisted of the strange and twisted and deranged
    And I hate that little game you had called cryin'
