Arctic Monkeys – This House Is a Circus Lyrics 18 years ago
I suspect it's about them being in the spotlight and how it doesn't seem real and the pressures placed upon them as a band.

Arctic Monkeys – No Buses Lyrics 19 years ago
Absolutely brilliant, to compare relationships or flings to buses as the saying goes "buses all come at once when you're waiting for one."

He's using the same analogy here where women are concerned and telling the story of a girl he's met when he had plenty of other girls around and how he clearly just wants this one but his opportunity has gone.

Arctic Monkeys – Despair in the Departure Lounge Lyrics 19 years ago
He wrote it on the way to America I imagine as it was first heard in Texas. I think he's seeing/was seeing a girl from Peterborough and presume its about missing her.

It sums up perfectly the feelings of missing someone when away. Brilliant

Arctic Monkeys – Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys? Lyrics 19 years ago
I'm pretty disappointed by this LP to be honest. Whatever People Say is already one of my favourite albums possibly of all time after following them from being a small Sheffield band.

The line "But your heroes aren't what they seem
When you've been where we've been" hints that they have had a hard up bringing or something when really they've lived in a fairly decent suburb of Sheffield.

Also "And there's a couple of hundred
Think they're Christopher Columbus" I suspect is hinting at those who travel great distances to see them and could be interpreted as being very ungrateful but I might be wrong on that one?

Arctic Monkeys – Leave Before the Lights Come On Lyrics 20 years ago
It should read "its only hard in the morning" and "all the lust that was brewing" and "I hope you wake up"

More brilliance from Turner.

The way he can just talk about a normal situation and things that happen on a night out is excellent. It's so simple yet so effective.

I love the final verse.
