Arctic Monkeys Lyrics

"Scummy" lyrics


So who's that girl there?
I wonder what went wrong
So that she had to roam the streets
She don't do major credit cards
I doubt she does receipts
It's all not quite legitimate
And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes, yeah
That he's got a driving ban
Amongst some other offences

And I've seen him with girls of the night
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
They're all infected but he'll be alright
Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know
I said he's a scumbag, don't you know!

Although you're trying not to listen
I bet your eyes are staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
I’m sorry love I'll have to turn you down

And oh he must be up to summat
Want half a chance to show he's more than likely
I've got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might be
What his story might be, yeah

They said it changes when the sun goes down
Yeah they said it changes when the sun goes down
Yeah they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Around

And look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous
And he don't have to say owt
She understands she's here to get picked up

And she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fuckin’ freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
She don't stop in the winter, no

Well they said it changes when the sun goes down
Yeah they said it changes when the sun goes down
Well they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here

Well they said it changes when the sun goes down
Yeah they said it changes when the sun goes down
Well they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Around here

What a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty plan
I hope you're not involved at all
