Arctic Monkeys - Dangerous Animals Lyrics






I'm pinned down by the dark

Been fighting with my sheets and nearly crying in my sleep
Yes, I'm battling that well told gripe
The most frustrating type
You should have racing stripes the way you keep me in pursuit
You sharpen the heel of your boot and you press it in my chest
And you make me wheeze
Then to my knees you do promote me

I'm pinned down by the dark

A-N-I-M-A-L
She makes my head pirouette more than I would be willing to confess
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S

The light it fidgets through, the thoughts will soon revert to you
About as bashful as a tribal dance
The first and final chance
And of course the audience of frighteners and fiends
Divided up into two teams
When the acrobat fell off the beam she broke everyone's heart.

I'm pinned down by the dark

A-N-I-M-A-L
She makes my head pirouette more than I would be willing to confess
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
The most unsuitable pet, it's been long enough now so let's make a mess lioness

Pinned down by the dark
I'm pinned down by the dark

D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
A-N-I-M-A-L
D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S
A-N-I-M-A-L

    Divided up into two teams
    When the acrobat fell off the beam

  71. j.... ....

    I really hope they rediscover their urge to write heavy psychedelia again, but unfortunately I think the phase is gone. This is easily their best album, musically and lyrically.

    j.... ....

    Joe Friedman TBH&C wasn't heavy though I loved the album

    j.... ....

    Agreed - my fave album of theirs!

    j.... ....

    Tranquillity base

    j.... ....

    I think my favourite album was favourite worst nightmare, granted this could just be because it was the first one I listened to

    j.... ....

    I mean their recent album is mental (i just saw how old this comment is)

  72. W.... A....
