So you're on the prowl wondering whether
She left already or notLeather jacket, collar popped like CantonnaNever knowing when to stopSunglasses indoors, par for the courseLights in the floors and sweat on the wallsCages and polesCall off the search for your soulOr put it on hold againShe's having a sly indoor smokeAnd she calls the folks who run this, her oldest friendsSipping a drink and laughing at imaginary jokesAs all the signals are sent, her eyes invite you to approachAnd it seems as though those lumps in your throatThat you just swallowed have got you going
Come on, come on, come onCome on, come on, come onNumber one party anthem
She's a certified mind blowerKnowing full well that I don'tMay suggest there's somewhere from which I might know herJust to get the ball to rollDrunken monologues, confused becauseIt's not like I'm falling in love, I just want yaTo do me no goodAnd you look like you could
Come on, come on, come onCome on, come on, come onNumber one party anthemCome on, come on, come onBefore the moment's goneNumber one party anthem, yeah, yeah
The look of love, the rush of bloodThe "She's with me"'s, the Gallic shrugThe shutterbugs, the Camera PlusThe black & white and the color dodgeThe good time girls, the cubiclesThe house of fun, the number oneParty anthem, oh
Come on, come on, come onCome on, come on, come onCome on, come on, come onCome on, come on, come onBefore the moment's goneNumber one party anthemNumber one party anthemNumber one party anthemYeah, yeah
I have chosen this song for my NEA music video as I feel as though the lyrics can be interpreted and reflected well. during my research I believe that this song has a lot of potential to produce a good narrative music video as it features things like intertextuality in its lyrics (Cantonna), as well as the lyrics following a clear structure which reflects on the singers own experiences which can easily be acted outing the music video. I also feel as though an Arctic Monkeys song is suitable when considering the Beggars Group will be the production company, as the band and the song generally falls into the typical indie genre that the production group supports.
My first idea for my own adaption of this song is to have a leading male character sat alone at a house party perhaps on the stairs reminiscing on an ex lover, whilst the video incorporates the use of flashbacks to show the pairs experiences.
