The Last Shadow Puppets

Lyrics The age of the understatement The Last Shadow Puppets

 946

The age of the understatement


Decided
To sneak up away from your stomach
And try your pulse
And captured
What seemed all unknowing and candid
But they suspected it was false

She's playful
The boring would warn you be careful
Of her brigade
In order to tame this relentless marauder
Move away from the parade

And she was walking on the tables in the glass house
Endearingly bedraggled in the wind
Subtle in her method of seduction
The twenty little tragedies begin

And she would throw a feather boa in the road
If she thought that it would set the scene
Unfittingly dipped into your companions
Enlighten them to make you see
And there's affection to rent
The age of the understatement
Before the attraction ferments
Kiss me properly and pull me apart

Affection to rent the age of the understatement
Before this attraction ferments
Kiss me properly and pull me apart

And my fingers scratch at my hair
Before my mind can get too reckless
The idea of seeing you here
Is enough to make the sweat grow cold

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics THE AGE OF THE UNDERSTATEMENT of THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS is also present in the album The age of the understatement (2008)

Biografia

The Last Shadow Puppets are a British supergroup formed in 2007 by Alex Turner, frontman of the indie rock band Arctic Monkeys, and Miles Kane, former leader of The Rascals and now a solo artist. The duo first collaborated on their debut album "The Age of the Understatement", a work that blends glam rock vibes from the 1970s with indie pop and psychedelic influences. The band's sound is characterized by catchy melodies, poetic lyrics, and orchestral arrangements. In addition to Turner and Kane, the lineup includes James Ford on drums (producer of both Arctic Monkeys albums) and Zach Dawes on bass. In 2016, the group released their second album "Everything You've Come to Expect", which was a critical and commercial success. Among the band's most representative songs are: "The Age of the Understatement", "Standing on a Beach", "Bad Habits" and "Aviation".
