The View From the Afternoon Songtext
von Arctic Monkeys

Anticipation has the habit to set you up
For disappointment in evening entertainment, but
Tonight, there′ll be some love
Tonight, there'll be a rackus, yeah, regardless of what′s gone before

I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
The lairy girls hung out the window of the limousine
Of course, it's fancy dress
And they′re all looking quite full on in bunny ears and devil horns and how

Anticipation has the habit to set you up
For disappointment in evening entertainment, but
Tonight, there′ll be some love
Tonight, there'll be a rackus, yeah, regardless of what′s gone before

I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
I wanna see you take the jackpot out the fruit machine
And put it all back in
You′ve got to understand that you can never beat the bandit, no


And she won't be surprised, and she won′t be shocked
When she's pressed the star after she's pressed unlock
And there′s verse and chapter sat in her inbox
And all that it says is that you′ve drank a lot

And you should bear that in mind tonight
Bear that in mind
Yeah, you should bear that in mind tonight
Bear that in mind

And you can pour your heart out but her reasoning will block
Owt you send her after nine o'clock

Anticipation has the habit to set you up
For disappointment in evening entertainment, but
Tonight, there′ll be some love, oh
Tonight, there'll be a rackus, yeah, regardless of what′s gone before

And she won't be surprised, and she won′t be shocked
When she's pressed the star after she's pressed unlock
And there′s verse and chapter sat in her inbox
And all that it says is that you′ve drank a lot
And you should bear that in mind tonight
Bear that in mind
Yeah, you should bear that in mind tonight
Bear that in mind


And you can pour your heart out around three o'clock
When the two-for-one′s undone the writer's block
