Arctic Monkeys - The Jeweller's Hands Lyrics
Fiendish wonder in the carnival's wake
Dull caresses once again irritate
Tread softly stranger
Move over toward the danger that you seek
The logic of the trance quickly reaches and grasps
Handsome and faceless and weightless your imagination runs
And now it's no ones 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
But you know what it's like to hold the jeweller's hands
That procession of pioneers all drowned
In the moonlight they're more thrilling those things that he knows
As he leads you through the grinning bubble blowers in the snow
Watching his exit was like falling off the ferry in the night
The inevitables gather to push you around
Any other voice makes such a punishing sound
It became laughter's assassin shortly after he showed you what it was
And now it's no ones 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
But you know what it's like to hold the jeweller's hands
That procession of pioneers all drowned
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 the return
If you've a lesson to teach please don't deviate, don't be afraid
Without the last corner piece I can't calibrate, let's get it engraved
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 the return
If you've a lesson to teach please don't deviate, don't be afraid
Without the last corner piece I can't calibrate, let's get it engraved
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 the return
If you've a lesson to teach please don't deviate, don't be afraid
Without the last corner piece I can't calibrate, let's get it engraved

Arctic Monkeys The Jeweller's Hands Comments
I was in a cover band in Uni that was heavily influenced by our lead singers music taste, until we decided to play this at the drummers request, and this outro was the hardest shit we ever played, and we covered Metallica and even suicide silence as my request. The drummer played a breakdown in the 5th repeat of the outro and it was legeeeeendaaaaary 😍
I have a passion for this song i need everyone to hear it and at the same time i want it all for myself. Its pure magic.
Just commenting cus I also wanna see my comment 10 year later
Genius song
ESSSSTAAA CANCIAAAAANNNNN
Bill Clinton likes this song because the bass sounds like a sexy saxophone.
Pablo escobar el patron del mal :v
happy to be the 8000th like for this masterpiece
That remembers me Blue Oyster Cult
when he says "handsome and faceless" i always think of jaqen h'ghar from game of thrones lol
Nominaciones: World Music Award al Mejor Álbum del Mundo, NME Award al Mejor Álbum, NME Award al Peor Álbum del Año
Genera un ambiente de misterio y psicodelia magnifico, sin duda mi favorita de Humbug :D
Good drinking song
Bit of a tune tbh
This enigmatic masterwork is absolutely teeming with deliciously abstract metaphors. Seething with foreboding... Humbug and this track in particular made an imprint the first time I heard it, and it still hovers like a ghost above my head. 10.0/10
legendary
their best song solely cause of 3:13 and on
This and Dance Little Liar are fucking amazing, I can't believe this album doesn't get the recognition it so dearly deserves.
this song is underated
Thank you fuckin' much Alex Turner
Tonlarin gizemi içine çektikçe çekiyor. Her dinleyişte daha da derine götürüyor... fazla bilinmeyen ama muhteşem bir sarki
you can see so much Josh Homme influence in here
Laughter's Assassin
Such eloquent lyrics
There is just something so eerie about this song, I love it
i Just can't get enough of this song and this band
This song and You know I'm no good by Amy are sisters
In love w this
amazing song
Hit the like button if you're listening to this in 2019 🤘🏼🤘🏼
This song is very popular with devoted fans but it's so underrated with casual fans/new fans
Because I hated this song I never got to the outro until now... wow *read in Owen Wilson voice"
What is the jewellers hands a metaphor for?
This must be my hundredth time listening to this song and I just now noticed the “oh” at 4:52. That’s what makes the outro of this song so special, even as it’s fading out there’s new things being added that you notice after loads of listens, it feels like the world that humbug’s set in, this mindscape, is just going to keep getting more hectic and more dangerous, and the fade is letting us know that Humbug will never stop, this song is just us exiting it.
You have a face to me.
Logic of trance
I heard of a parrot named humbug, or was that a dog. Ba ha ha.
best song ever made by arctic
I don't feel this is particularly dark, but I find it more kind of oblique and spooky. Humbug is the best album to listen to at Hallowe'en.
One of the best outros for an album
i miss this band making this kind of music
Temazo!
The outro is a true masterpiece. Crazy how you can imagine a whole story only listening to this. In my head it’s the end of a series episode where the main character hoped to escape from a shitty situation. But at the end life catches him up...
It looks like they're smoking pot on the album cover
I LOVE THIS SONG TOO MUCH
espectacular
Humbug is sooo trippy my god, takes me to another universe.
First time listening to this song and already shivering.
This IS A MASTERPIECE
Best song of Alex Turner
One of their best songs
estilo alternativo y aristo.
what a fucking tune. what an album, honestly.
man, i miss the humbug era so much..this album is such a masterpiece!
From 3:10 on is just a huge eargasm
Maybe i have listened this song for thousand times but still i can't skip whenever it plays randomly on my playlist. Extraordinary
This song makes me feel badass and depressed at the same time
I’ve always thought this song would be perfect for a James Bond movie.
It’s not just my favourite Humbug song, It’s my favourite AM song! I absolutely everything in the song.
Nick has such a superb bass line on this I'm staggered not more people have mentioned it. The walking bass line from Sheffield, the writer of Do I Wanna Know?, everyone.
Nick wrote the bass line for R U Mine? & Alex wrote the bass for Do I Wanna Know?
one of their best, amazing outro
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFYe1oQ4Urc....tmj
"...you're a sinking stone"
Okay so no one is going to talk about how Nick is killing that bass
this is my favourite secret place

Wow,..back after 7 years. Timeless music!
AMO ESTA CANCIÓN AH LA MEJOR
I guess they left the best, for last. It's hands down the best song on Humbug.
THIS ALBUM IS A BUNCH OF FUCKING POETRY ALEX I LOVE YOU THANKS
Chorus sounds a lot like that song they covered.. 'You know I'm no good'
I love the circus/carnival vibes this album gives
everybody's talking about the outro here and im just in awe of matt drumming
my best song from my favourite band.2018 & still loving it!!!
I really liked this era
I really need them to use this in an episode of peaky blinders.
Humbug's bass is, to me, the best thing they've ever done
Became laughter’s assassin, shortly after he showed you what it was.... how, Alex, how 😩
Im in love with this song and his voice
ogrencek cok seyimiz var senden Alex biraderim
masterpiece be kardeşim...
What a great outro to an outstanding album
OMFG this music is so fucking good
There's no one here to police me, I'm sinking in, until you return...man, I love that outro so much
This song reminds me of being in a witch’s house or a medium Idk i just love the vibe
i am the only one who thinks that this song looks like a Winehouse song ?
the most underrated track, the best one
I'm looking for a song that has a similar beginning like this song.....can anybody help me?
Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino years before it happened
Best band in the world??
Paper Towns ?
I'm just here trying to comfort myself after listening to their new songs..
man, I love tranquility base hotel + casino, I do think you should give it a second try.
i imagine an abandoned halloween themed funpark and witches dancing in the moonlight
That guitar..
10 years :D

Fiendish wonder in the carnival's wake
Though it caresses once again irritate
Tread softly stranger
Move over toward the danger THAT you seek
You think excitement has receded
And the mirror distracts
The logic of the trance
Quickly reaches and grasps
Handsome and faceless
And weightless, your imagination roams
And now it's no ones 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
But you know what it's like to hold the jeweler's hand
That procession of pioneers all drowned
In the moonlight they're more thrilling
Those things that he knows
As he leads you through the grinning
Bubble blowers in the snow

The inevitables gather to push you around
Any old voice makes a punishing sound

Shortly after he showed you what it was
And now it's no ones 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

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
you can find it in description
I,always thought this song was about a Faustian bargain.
daha ne yapayım üstadım yaz artık
HUMBUG BABYY~
Que melodías al final son muy crudas y el desliz de loa dedos de Alex en la guitarra hacen q sea uno de los mejores riffs se puede hacer mucha variación y jugar con los acordes humbug me vuela la cabeza
no eres el unico existen mucho arreglos en esa master piece asi que a disfrutar humbug 😉😉
Handsome and faceless and weightless your imagination runs
