The Last Shadow Puppets The Element Of Surprise song lyrics

There's a set of rickety stairs in between my heart and my head

And there ain't much that ever bothers going up them

Here we go I'm at it again

Once it's started it's so tricky to stop

Suddenly reminded of things I thought I forgot

You've got me loosening up my grip on the plot

It feels like your entrance just caused the temperature to rise

You'd got that look in your eyes as you snuck in the side

And the place I thought I was at

Hasn't yet invited invited me back

The trouble with the chase is it's so easy to crash

Why colour in the lines if you're just painting it black?

I thought they were kisses but apparently not,

do you end all your messages with an X marks the spot?

Just let me know when you want your socks knocking off

It feels like your entrance just caused the temperature to rise

You'd got that look in your eyes as you snuck in the side

Guess there's nothing like the element of surprise
