北极猴子 - Leaving Before The Lights Come On

从去年年底开始，英国乐队北极猴子（Arctic Monkeys）似乎就没有离开过媒体和歌迷的视线。2006年1月，Arctic Monkeys乐队的首张专辑《Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I Am Not》在英国一经发行便直冲英国专辑榜榜首，并连续四周统治英国专辑榜。本张专辑在英国发行当天便狂卖11万8千张，这一数字甚至超过当周英国专辑榜前20名中其他专辑的销量总和。此后，《Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I Am Not》很快便超越了前辈绿洲乐队（Oasis）1994年的首张专辑《Definitely Maybe》，成为英国流行音乐史上最热销的处女专辑。

Well this is a good idea,
He wouldn't do it if it wasn't,
He wouldn't do it if it wasn't one.
Well my friend fancies¹ you,
Oh what a way to begin it all,
You said it's always exciting words to hear

And we woke up together not quite realising how,
Oh when your stretching and yawning²,
Its always hard in the morning,

And I suppose that's the price you pay,
Oh it isn't what it was,
She's thinking he looks different today,
And oh there's nothing left to guess now,

You left before the lights came on,
Because you didn't want to ruin,
All the lust³ that was brewing⁴,
Before he absolutely had to,
And how can you wake up,
With someone you don't love?
And not feel slightly fazed by it,
Oh, he had a struggle,

And you woke up together not quite realising how,
Oh but he's stretching and yawning,
It's always hard in the morning,

And I suppose that's the price you pay,
Oh it isn't what it was,
She's thinking he looks different today,
And oh there's nothing left to guess now,

Quick, let's leave, before the lights come on,
'Cos then you don't have to see,
'Cos then you don't have to see,
What you've done,

Quick, let's leave, before the lights come on,
'Cos then you don't have to see,
'Cos then you don't have to see,
What you've done,

Until tomorrow comes,

I'll walk you up, what time's the bus come?
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus come?
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus come?
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus come?
