Temptation Greets You Like Your Naughty Friend - Arctic Monkeys

I don’t ever want to hate you

So don’t show me your bed

The only roads are cul-de-sacs

The first thing that she said

Temptation greets you like your naughty mate

The one that used to get you in bother

But one you could never bring yourself to hate

And she said we’ve got that spark

But only lights a fuse, helps you see in the dark

But it’s a sight you’ll lose when

The temptation greets you like your naughty friend

I don’t ever want to hate you

So don’t show me your bed

The only roads are cul-de-sacs

The only ends are dead

Temptation greets you like your naughty mate

The one that made you steal and set things on fire

The one you haven’t seen of late

And I said that kind of talk

Only adds intrigue to the cauldron of thought

It’s already exceeding

Temptation, the very thing that held her back

I don’t ever want to hate you

So don’t show me your bed

The only roads are cul-de-sacs

The only ends are dead

I don’t ever want to hate you

It’s not part of the plan

So keep your charm where I can’t see it

And your hands where I can

Yo, it’s Rasc' gettin' dirtee stankin', yeah

We used to be in tight, me and my naughty friends

Caused pure madness in the end, I mean day and night

We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight

Smoking, drinking, drag riding

Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding

Reckless youngsters, no direction, no sign of correction

But then I switched it off, changed my ways

Run the area like, «Oh, my days»

But a lot of my naughty friends, they’re not phased

Can’t believe that this music pays

See no reason why we can’t do

All the things that we’ve always done

Still in my heart I know that’s just one

But it’s hard to fight the temptation, son

The panic will fall down around you

If you don’t do what I say

I don’t ever want to hate you

So don’t show me your bed

The only roads are cul-de-sacs

The only ends are dead

I don’t ever want to hate you

It’s not part of the plan

So keep your charm where I can’t see it

And your hands where I can
