Crying Lightning by Arctic Monkeys

Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
You were practicing a (1)__________ trick
And my (2)________________ got rude
As you talked and chewed
On the last of your (3)________ and mix
So, you're (4)________________ if you're thinking
That I haven't (5)________ (6)____________ cold before
As you bit into (7)________ strawberry lace
And then offered me your attention
In the form of a gobstopper
It's all you had left and it was (8)__________ to waste

Your pastimes (9)__________________ of the strange
And (10)______________ and deranged
And I (11)________ that (12)____________ game
You had called "Crying lightning"
And how you liked to aggravate
The ice-cream man on rainy afternoons

The next time that I (13)____________ my own reflection
It was on its way to meet you
Thinking of excuses to postpone
You never looked like yourself
From the side but your profile
Could not hide the fact
You knew I was approaching your throne
With (14)____________ arms you occupied
The bench like a toothache
Stood and (15)____________ your chest out
Like you'd never lost a war
Although I tried so not to suffer
The (16)__________________ of a reaction
There was no cracks to (17)__________ or (18)________ to claw
And (19)________ pastimes consisted of the strange
And (20)______________ and deranged
And I hate (21)________ little game
You had called "Crying lightning"
And how you liked to aggravate
The (22)________ man on rainy afternoons

Uninviting
But not (23)________ as impossible
As everyone assumes you are
"Crying lightning"

Your pastimes consisted of the strange
Twisted and deranged
And I hate that (24)____________ (25)________ you had called
Crying lightning

Crying lightning

Crying lightning

Crying lightning
Your pastimes, consisted of the strange
And (26)______________ and deranged
And I (27)________ that little game
You had called "Crying"...
