Last Shadow Puppets, The - My Mistakes Were Made For You Lyrics






About as subtle as an earthquake, I know,
My mistakes were made for you.
And in the backroom of the bad dream, she came,
And whisked me away, enthused.

And it's as solid as a rock rolling down a hill,
The fact is that it probably will hit something,
On the hazardous terrain.

And we're just following the flock,
Around and in-between,
Before we're smashed to smithereens
Like they were, then we scramble from the blame
And it's the fame that put words in her mouth,
She couldn't help, but spit them out.
Innocence and arrogance entwined,
In the filthiest of minds.

She was bitten on her birthday,
And now a face in the crowd, she's not.
And I suspected now forever the shape
She came to escape, is forgot.

And it's a lot to ask her not to sting.
And give her less than everything;
Around your crooked conscious she will wind.

And we're just following the flock,
Around and in-between,
Before we're smashed to smithereens
Like they were, and we scrambled from the blame.
And it's the fame that put words in her mouth,
She couldn't help but spit them out
Around your crooked conscious she will wind.

And it's a lot to ask her not to sting,
And give her less than everything
Innocence and arrogance entwined.

  6. S.... ....

    The Last Shadow Puppets fans are Arctic Monkeys fans who only wants Alex Turner erotically whispers right in their ears

  7. S.... K....

    I know every9nes saying it here but this really should be a james bond song . Honestly perfect.

  8. G.... �....

    Alex Turner and Miles Kane are the best duo for the next James Bond soundtracks.

  9. K.... S....

    MY MIXTAPES WERE MADE FOR YOU.

  10. d.... s....

    Very nice song, it sounds like it was made in the '70s!

  11. d.... y....

    11 years ago.
    Time flies.
    I feel so old.

  12. d.... d....

    Perfect just perfect..

  13. M.... P....

    This song sounds like an anticipation of what would happen on TBHC by AM

  14. Z.... D....

    I'm thinking of a man.
    Remember him whispering that song..
    Hope that in the deepest of his mind he was dedicating it to me..

  15. N.... N....

    Men write about your women, song, poem, music anything art. Be a man

    About as subtle as an earthquake, I know
    My mistakes were made for you

    And in the back room of a bad dream, she came
    And whisked me away, enthused

    And it's solid as a rock rolling down a hill
    The fact is that it probably will hit something
    On the hazardous terrain

    And were just following the flock, round
    And the in between, before we smash to smithereens
    Like they were, and we scrambled from the grain
    And its the fame that put words in her mouth
    She couldn't help, but spit em out
    Innocence and arrogance intwined
    In the filthiest of minds

    She's was bitten on her birthday, and now
    A face in the crowd, shes not
    And i suspect that now, forever the shape
    She came to escape, its forgot
    And it's a lot to ask and not to sting
    Give her less than everything
    Around your crooked conscious she will wind

    Cos were just following the flock round
    And the in-between
    Before we smash to smithereens
    Like they were, and we scramble from the grain
    And it's the fame that put words in her mouth
    She couldn't help, but spit em out
    Around your crooked conscious she will wind
    And it's a lot to ask and not to sting
    Giver her less than everything
    Innocence and arrogance intwined

  18. R.... I....

    Humbug vibes

  19. t.... j....

    Alwayz fave to fave to fave....

  20. Y.... C....

    kaotik bir klip

  21. J.... J....

    That reverb on the guitar and on the vocals is just the goddamn cherry on top, it’s just one of those song where there’s a clear visual and it’s beautiful. Fuck this song is a masterpiece.

  22. n.... ....

    Tuvba:'))

  23. P.... A....

    I just keep listening to this song on repeat for 1:36 Its fabulous

  24. A.... T....

    ..for the couldn't care less response

    A.... T....

    Walk around bullying..

  25. �.... ....

    why does this feel like it should be in a james bond soundtrack

    �.... ....

    Because it has the '70s sound maybe.

  26. A.... �....

    I never seem to get enough of this song. Even after all these years I keep coming back and it's like I'm listening to it for the first time everytime.

    Shaggy-haired Alex is so unequivocally elfin.

  29. D.... N....

    el mejor sonido que tuvo el alesi. una mezcla entre los monos, los beatles y portishead

  30. d.... m....

    if it where "over the garden wall" alex would be wirt and miles greg

  31. D.... S....

    How did I only find this now?

  32. �.... �....

    BABIEES

    Dreadful sycophantic referencing video for an amazing song. Aoyade aint no Orson Welles even if he steals some of his camera moves.

  34. D.... F....

    I want Alex to sing me to sleep with this song.

    D.... F....

    🤣🤣🤣

  35. H.... J....

    ALEXA CHUNG >>>>> LITERALLY ANYONE ALEX EVER HAD OR WOULD HAVE. The best he ever had 😌. Also this video makes me sad coz the last scene of Chung walking away is hauntingly similar to the real life scenario of her walking away and em breaking up. Fucking tragic! :'))

  56. E.... ....

    the most beautiful song ever

    Check out some moody blues songs like new horizons and nights in white satin

  64. J.... O....

    I hate how underrated this band & album are

    J.... O....

    Agree I don't think puppets had much of support from monkeys fans Because the sound and lyrics are so different. For me I'm a fan of Alex's voice he could sing bar bar black sheep and I'd love it.

  65. G.... F....

    Muy Buen Tema 🎶🎶🎶
