Arctic Monkeys - One for the Road
One for the road
One for the road
From the bottom of your heart
The relegation zone
I saw this coming from the start
The shake rattle and roll
The cracks in black out blinds
Cast patterns on the ceiling
But you're feeling fine
I thought it was dark outside
I thought it was dark outside
So we all go back to yours
And you sit and talk to me on the floor
There's no need to show me round baby I feel like I've been here before
I've be wondering whether later when you tell everybody to go will you pour
Me one for the road
I knew this would be on the cards
I knew you wouldn't fold
I saw this coming from the start
Shake rattle and roll
So we all go back to yours
And you sit and talk to me on the floor
There's no need to show me round baby I feel like I've been here before
I've be wondering whether later when you tell everybody to go will you pour
Me one for the road
The mixture hits ya hard
Don't get that sinking feeling
Don't fall apart
Some out of tune guitars
Soundtrack to disaster
One for the road
One for the road
One for the road
So we all go back to yours
And you sit and talk to me on the floor
There's no need to show me round baby I feel like I've been here before
I've be wondering whether later when you tell everybody to go will you pour
Me one for the road
The fourth single for Arctic Monkeys' studio album "AM", “One for the Road” shows Alex Turner leaving a girl and the title refers to a final drink before leaving home to fortify one for the journey ahead. The expression and practice has fallen victim to the increasing enforcement of drink-driving over the past few decades.
