In this track, Alex Turner talks about a female he has seen and become extremely infatuated with. She paralyzes him and he can’t stop staring at her.
It’s just a love song, I suppose. In terms of the sound, I guess some of the stuff we were listening to was like the Pixies.
-Alex Turner
We’ve all...
[Verse 1]
Topless models doing semaphore
Wave their flags as she walks by and get ignored
Illuminations on a rainy day
When she walks, her footsteps sing a reckless serenade
[Chorus]
I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
Called up to listen to the voice of reason
And got the answering machine
[Verse 2]
The type of kisses where teeth collide
When she laughs, the heavens hum a stun gun lullaby
Those twinkling vixens with the shining spiral eyes
Their hypnosis goes unnoticed when she's walking by
[Chorus]
I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
Called up to listen to the voice of reason
And got his answering machine
[Bridge]
I left my message, but did he fuck get back to me
And now I'm stuck still wondering how it's meant to be
[Outro]
Singing a reckless serenade, reckless serenade
Reckless serenade, reckless serenade
Reckless serenade, reckless serenade
Reckless serenade
