Temptation Greets You Like Your Naughty Friend Lyrics
[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,
That 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,
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.
[Dizzie Rascal]
We used to be tight, me and my naughty friends,
Caused pure madness in the air,
I'm talkin' day 'n' night,
We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight,
Smoking, drinking, joyriding,
Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding,
Reckless hucksters, no direction,
No sign of correction,
But then I switched it up,
Changed my ways,
But they air me like "Oh my days!"
But not 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 we've always done,
Still in my heart I know that's just one,
But its hard to fight the temptation from.
[Arctic Monkeys]
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
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The first thing that she said.
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one you could never bring yourself to hate.
That 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.
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The only ends are dead.
One that made you steal and set things on fire,
The one you haven't seen of late.
Only adds intrigue,
To the cauldron of thought,
It's already exceeding,
Temptation, the very thing that held her back.
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The only ends are dead.
It's not part of the plan,
So keep your charm where I can't see it,
Caused pure madness in the air,
I'm talkin' day 'n' night,
We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight,

Reckless hucksters, no direction,

The only ends are dead.

So keep your charm where I can't see it,
And your hands where I can

I'm absolutely in love with this song, its amazing! But I dont think its about friends I actually think it's about meeting someone that you know thats no good for you but you really dont want to see his/her bad side! Its like that naughty friend that always gets you in trouble, but you still like..
Or sumthin like that..
i'm sure it's
"and i said that kind of talk only adds intriuge to the cold on the floor over the exceeding temptation the very thing that held her back "
i'm not sure its "to the cold on the floor" but i can't figure it out.
