[Chorus]
(She looks like fun)
(She looks like fun)
(She looks like fun)
(She looks like)

[Verse 1]
Smile like you've got a straw in something tropical
I've got the party plugged right into my skull
Wayne Manor, what a memorable NYE

[Chorus]
(She looks like fun) Good morning
(She looks like fun) Cheeseburger
(She looks like fun) Snowboarding
(She looks like)

[Verse 2]
Finally, there's a place with you through cloudy skies
Every whimsical thought that enters my mind
Look, there ain't no limit to the length of the dickheads we can bе

[Chorus]
(She looks like fun) Bukowski
(She looks likе fun) Dogsitting
(She looks like fun) Screwballing
(She looks like)

[Verse 3]
Finally, there's a place where you can wag your tongue
Baby, but why can't we all just get along?
Dance as if somebody's watching, 'cause they are

[Bridge]
No one's on the streets
They've moved it all online as of March
I'm so full of shite
I need to spend less time stood around in bars
Waffling on to strangers all about martial arts
And how much I respect them

[Chorus]
(She looks like fun) Key changes
(She looks like fun) Re-thinking
(She looks like fun) New order
(She looks like fun)

Arctic Monkeys are an English rock band formed in 2002 in High Green, a suburb of Sheffield, England. The band consists of Alex Turner (lead vocals, rhythm/lead guitar), Matt Helders (drums, vocals), Jamie Cook (lead/rhythm guitar) and Nick O'Malley (bass, backing vocals). Former band member Andy Nicholson (bass guitar, backing vocals) left the band in 2006 shortly after their debut album was released. Their sound has changed extensively from album to album, gradually evolving from raw, youthful post-punk revival music to R ‘n’ B and jazz-inspired experiments.

All four original members of the band were devoted fans of hip-hop when they were younger, a genre that would have an immense influence on their later work, but it was the sound of The Strokes and The Libertines that would help shape their early style. The Arctic Monkeys became one of the first bands to find fame and recognition purely through internet publicity and social media; the Arctics used to sell their demos CDs at a bar where Alex Turner used to work, but due to the limited number of CDs, their fans started to upload them on the internet.

Initially, they refused to sign a record contract with any label through fear that they would want the band to change their songs, going as far as to refuse scouts guaranteed entry into their gigs. However, they eventually signed with Domino because of the “do it yourself” attitude of founder, Lawrence Bell, who ran the label from his own house.
