Arctic Monkeys - Bigger Boys And Stolen Sweethearts lyrics

There's always somebody taller with more of a wit

And he's equipped to enthrall her and her friends think he's fit

And you just can't measure up though, you don't have a prayer

Wishing that you'd made the most of her when she was there

They've got engaged, there's no intention of a wedding

He's pinched your bird and he'd probably kick your head in

Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts

Oh, you’re better off without her anyway

You said you wasn't sad to see her go

Yeah, but I know you were though

Now you don't know what she's up to you can only assume

If she's not in the front of the shops then they've gone to his room

Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff, bet that’s what he likes

I know you thought she were different and you thought she were nice

But she's not nice, she's pretty fucking far from nice

She’s looking at you funny, rarely looking at you twice

Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts

Oh, you’re better off without her anyway

You said you wasn't sad to see her go

Yeah, but it's so clear you were though

Have you heard what she has been doing? Never did it for me

He picks her up at the school gate at twenty past three

She's been with all of the boys but, never went very far

And she wagged English and science just to go in his car

They've got engaged there's no intention of a wedding

He's pinched me bird and he'd probably kick my head in

Oh, now the girls have grown

Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways

Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts

Oh, I'm better off without her anyway

I said I wasn't sad to see her go

Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know

Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know

I was only pretending, you know

I was only pretending, you know
