Art Brut - Sound Of Summer lyrics

rate me

All through the night

They begin to take shape

From the crackle of vinyl

To the hiss of the tape

Play and record

Held down together

Tabs pushed off

So you can't tape over it ever

Just a couple of friends

Hanging out with each other

We started to swap tapes

To soundtrack our summer

Tapes that are full

Of the things we can't say

To each other

During the day

All through the night

They begin to take shape

From the crackle of vinyl

To the hiss of the tape

Play and record

Held down together

Tabs pushed off

So you can't tape over it ever

It can't be just me

That's working it out

These songs that we've chosen

And what they're about

Are we after the same thing?

Am I crossing a line?

I'm checking the lyrics

I'm pressing rewind

All through the night

They begin to take shape

From the crackle of vinyl

To the hiss of the tape

These songs won't see the sun

Any time soon

Under the cover of headphones

And for the privacy of bedrooms

All the best pop songs

Are girl meets boy

And there wasn't one song

That I didn't enjoy

But I lacked confidence

When I was young

So things didn't work out

The way they get sung

Play and record

Held down together

Tabs pushed off

So you can't tape over it ever

A couple of friends

Hanging out with each other

Just swapping songs

To soundtrack our summer
