Lyrics of I Wanna Be Yours by Arctic Monkeys

verse

I wanna be your vacuum cleaner

Breathing in your dust

I wanna be your Ford Cortina

I will never rust

verse

If you like your coffee hot

Let me be your coffee pot

You call the shots, babe

I just wanna be yours

pre-chorus

Secrets I have held in my heart

Are harder to hide than I thought

Maybe I just wanna be yours

I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours

chorus

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

verse

Let me be your leccy meter

And I'll never run out

Let me be the portable heater

That you'll get cold without

verse

I wanna be your setting lotion (wanna be)

Hold your hair in deep devotion (I'll be)

At least as deep as the Pacific Ocean

Now I wanna be yours

pre-chorus

Secrets I have held in my heart

Are harder to hide than I thought

Maybe I just wanna be yours

I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours

chorus

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

Wanna be yours

(Wanna be yours)

bridge

I wanna be your vacuum cleaner (wanna be yours)

Breathing in your dust (wanna be yours)

I wanna be your Ford Cortina (wanna be yours)

I will never rust (wanna be yours)

outro

I just wanna be yours (wanna be yours)

I just wanna be yours (wanna be yours)

I just wanna be yours (wanna be yours)

Writer(s): Alex Turner, John Cooper Clarke
