Lyrics of Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts by Arctic Monkeys
verse
There′s always somebody taller
With more of a wit
And he's equipped to enthrall her
And her friends think he′s fit
And you just can't measure up, no
You don't have a prayer
Wishing that you′d made the most of her
When she was there
pre-chorus
They′ve got engaged
There's no intention of a wedding
He′s pinched your bird
And he'd probably kick your head in
chorus
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
Oh, you′re better off without her anyway
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
Yeah, but I know you were though
verse
Now you don′t know what she's up to
You can only assume
If she's not in front of the shops, then
They′ve gone to his room
Bet she′s gone 'round in her school stuff
Bet that′s what he likes
I know you thought she was different
And you thought she was nice
But she's not nice
She′s pretty fucking far from nice
She's looking at you funny
Rarely looking at you twice
chorus
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
Oh, you′re better off without her anyway
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
Yeah, but it's clear you were though
verse
Have you heard what she′s been doing?
Never did it for me
He picks her up at the school gate
At twenty past three
She′s been with all the boys, but
Never went very far
And she wagged English and Science
Just to go in his car
pre-chorus
They've got engaged
There′s no intention of a wedding
He's pinched me bird
And he′d probably kick my head in, oh
Now the girls have grown
Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways
chorus
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
Oh, I′m better off without her anyway
I said I wasn't sad to see her go
Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know
Yeah, I′m only pretending, you know
I was only pretending, you know
I was only pretending, you know
