When The Sun Goes Down lyrics
Arctic Monkeys See albums and popular songs
So Who's that girl there?
I wonder what went wrong
So that she had to roam the streets
She dunt do major credit cards
I doubt she does receipts
It's all not quite legitimate
And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes, yea,
That he's got a driving ban
Amongst some other offences
And I've seen him with girls of the night
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
They're all infected but he'll be alright
Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know
Said he's a scumbag, don't you know!
Although you're trying not to listen
Avert your eyes and staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
"I'm sorry love I'll have to turn you down"
Oh he must be up to summat
What are the chances, sure it's more than likely
I've got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might be
They said it changes when the sun goes down
They said it changes when the sun goes down
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous?
And he don't even have to say owt
She's in the stance ready to get picked up
Bet she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
it doesn't stop in the winter, no
They said it changes when the sun goes down
They said it changes when the sun goes down
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Around Here
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Over the river, going out of town
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Around Here
Around Here
What a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes, yea, that he's got a nasty plan
I hope you're not involved at all

Great song!! And nice lyrics also.
im absolutely addicted to this song, i luv it!!!!! they lyrics are awesome too, i luv arctic monkeys!!
Not really good lyrics but nice tune
JOKEZ
That song's great!!! Both melodic & rock, whenever I hear it, I makes me fancy dance! Great lyrics, great music, great singer... One of the best songs of the moment!
The bad thing is: It's a little bit too short. Every time I see it on MTV and I'm getting in the mood the song already comes to it's end...
That's perhaps because of the chorus starting so late, and that is when you think 'oh, this rocks', and then theres just a few lines, chorus again and finishav a look at ma lyrics arctic monks wooooooooooooooooooooo they rock
Wow i LOVE this song...it rocks! woo!
Haha I am normally very positive about all kinds of music, as it takes a lto of effort and skill to write evne an average song.
However, this is truly appalling. I would use many other words to describe it, except I'm not sure which ones are allowed on this site. What really made me laugh was the DJ BRAP remix of this sopng.i loved this song!i listened it again and again nonstop!!great song!i luv arctic monkeys!
it is an awesum song.just a pity u guyz dont no the artic monkeys.u losers
it's awsome song.. honest to say, its the first time i m listnin to artic monkeys... but i think i kinda like the songs..... it's been described in funny way no doubt in tha..... any how,,, chill song..............
rocks your socks off
They got the lyrics wrong, it's not "I bet your eyes are staring at the ground", it's "AVERT your eyes and staring at the ground"
They've got quite a few of the lyrics wrong (eg "she understands" etc isn't right too), I submitted a bunch of corrections on Friday - how long does it take to get them sorted out?
ima chav yeh and dis aint chav music. BUT I GOTTA SAY DIS TRACK IS BANGIN. I have mah windows down in my saxo and crank up da volume. dis track is heaviiii!!!
The geezers who made dis song still chat lyk us chavs by sayin "scumbag" they is half chavs too innit blad

Oh and they aren't chav's chav's are the scumbags of the world and not only chav's say that word

I hate the arctic monkeys' other stuff, but this song is cool, it's a great party song for ppl who like all sorts of music. this and "...dancefloor" are good, but the rest of the album sux
artic monkeys rocks :P there songs r brilliant there so awesome i listen to it everyday x x
omg i luv this song!!! i dont like all of their songs but this one is totally awesom!!! the lyrics and tune and everything about it!!!!!!
its song wonderful!!!
yeah Arctic Monkeys kick arse. They have come from nothing and made something of themselves. People find it hard to appreciate the origin of their music, not just the tune. The lyrics mean something, whether it be pointless or from past expierience. Thats what a real fan does, they appreciate where it comes from, as well as the tune and the lyrics. Asd each band member is an individual in their own right, and songs arent based on looks.
rookie you are so right!!!!
This song is soooo good. I'm totally addicted! The lyrics are awesum! Can't get enough!Arctic Mokeys are soo kool!
bigger boys and stolen sweathearts by arctic monkeys is still a better song but dis kicks arse as well

Arctic monkeys write good songs theyre just no good at playing em some of the guitar n bass work on this album is absolutely shocking theres no way they wrote all the music on this. but its a kickass song which is the most important part
N they didn't come from nothing they were picked up because they were in the charts with only 3 gigs experience
this song is COOL....
