Arctic Monkeys Lyrics

"The Jeweller's Hands" lyrics


Fiendish wonder in a carnivals wake,
Dull caresses once again irritate
Tread softly stranger,
Move over toward the danger that you seek

You think excitement has receded,
Then the mirror distracts
The logic of the trans... reaches and grasps
Handsome and faceless
And weightless your imagination runs

And now it’s no one’s fault but yours
At the foot of the house of cards,
You thought you’d never get obsessed
You thought the wolves would be impressed,
And you’re a sinking stone
Cos you know what it’s like to hold the jeweller’s hands,
That procession of pioneers, all drown

In the moonlight they’re more thrilling,
Those things that he knows
As he leads you through the grinning, buddled, blowers in the snow,
Watching his exit is like falling off the ferry in the night
Inevitable’s gather to push you around,
Any old voice makes such a punishing sound
He became laughter’s assassin,
Shortly after he showed you what it was

And now it’s no one’s fault but yours
At the foot of the house of cards,
You thought you’d never get obsessed
You thought the wolves would be impressed,
And you’re a sinking stone
Cos you know what it’s like to hold the jeweller’s hands,
That procession of pioneers, all drown

If you’ve a lesson to teach me,
I’m listening ready to learn
There’s no one here to police me,
I’m sinking in until you return
If you’ve a lesson to teach me,
Don’t deviate don’t be afraid
Without the last corner piece I can’t calibrate,
Let’s get it ingrained

If you’ve a lesson to teach me,
I’m listening ready to learn
There’s no one here to police me,
I’m sinking in until you return
If you’ve a lesson to teach me,
Don’t deviate don’t be afraid
Without the last corner piece I can’t calibrate,
Let’s get it ingrained

If you’ve a lesson to teach me,
I’m listening ready to learn
There’s no one here to police me,
I’m sinking in until you return
If you’ve a lesson to teach me,
Don’t deviate don’t be afraid
Without the last corner piece I can’t calibrate,
Let’s get it ingrained

There's just a couple of words I can't quite understand.

Thanks to Таня for these lyrics.
