Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong But... Songtext
von Arctic Monkeys

I′ve seen your eyes as they fix on me
What is he doing? What on earth's the plan? Has he got one?
You′d better give me some pointers
Since you are the big rocket launcher and I'm just the shotgun.

Well I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it′s true
That 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.

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


I′ve seen your eyes as they fix on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just so condescending
Try to explain that we're onto a win
If the fee we are in

Near recoups what we′re spending
He says, 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′ve been better to stay round our way
Thinking ′bout things but not actually doing a thing

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!
