"No Buses" as written by and Alex Turner....
Lady, where's your love gone?
I was looking but can't find it anywhere
They always offer when there's loads of love around
But when you're short of some it's nowhere to be found
Well, I know your game, you told him yesterday
No chance, you'll get nothing from me
But now she's there, you're there and everybody's there
And he's in turmoil as puzzled as can be, just like me
Let's go down, down low down
Where I know I should not go
Oh, and she thinks she's the one
But she's just one in twenty-four
And just 'cause everybody's doing it
Does that mean that I can, too?
Lady, where's your love gone?
It was the antiseptic to the sore
To hold you by the hand must he first be in demand?
How he longs for you to long for him once more, just once more
Let's go down, down low down
Where I know I should not go
Oh, and she thinks she's the one
But she's just one in twenty-four
And just 'cause everybody's doing it
Does that mean that I can, too?
Her eyes went down and cut you up
And there's nothing like a dirty look from
The one you want or the one you've lost
An ache in your soul, it's everybody's goal
To get what they can't have
That's why you're after her and that's why she's after him
But saying it won't change a thing
And now realizing it won't change a thing
Realizing it won't change a thing
I was looking but can't find it anywhere
They always offer when there's loads of love around
But when you're short of some it's nowhere to be found
Well, I know your game, you told him yesterday
No chance, you'll get nothing from me
But now she's there, you're there and everybody's there
And he's in turmoil as puzzled as can be, just like me
Let's go down, down low down
Where I know I should not go
Oh, and she thinks she's the one
But she's just one in twenty-four
And just 'cause everybody's doing it

Sorry that it happened to you. I think it's happened to everyone at least one in their life.
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.
I don't really understand the chorus though. But i love the part where he sings -
"theres nothing like a dirty look from
the one you want
or the one you lost"
I think you've got it down. It always seems like people are after things they cant have, they like the challenge. its like when youre dating some one, and more people are after you. Then you break up with the person and when you actually want some one again, no one comes... silly boys... I mean 'buses' :)
aba das lied is ennnnnnd geil :)))
I don't get the chorus either, someone would mind and explain?
Her eyes went down and cut you up
There's nothing like a dirty look from
The one you want, or the one you've got
