My Propeller Lyrics

Cover art for My Propeller lyrics by Arctic Monkeys

I think of this as more of a propellor of the min, like alex has had a writers block and the one person (most likely a girl) is not around, creating lack of inspiration. The ideas of a propeller being reference to a penis, i think, is a bit odd, because what penis spins around at very high speeds? he could have used a better metaphor to get across the point of the lack of excitement downstairs. "My proppeller wont spin and i cant get it started on my own, when are you arriving".....i could be wrong but it just seems a bit farfetched for a man in his 20s to be incabable of arousing himself.
