Arctic Monkeys - Mardy Bum

Arctic Monkeys - Mardy Bum( Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not , 2006 )
Well now then mardy bum
I've seen your frown
And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
Well now then mardy bum
Oh I'm in trouble again, aren't i
I thought as much
Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear
Well can't we just laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
And yeah I'm sorry I was late
But I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate
That reoccurs, oh when you say I don't care
But of course I do, yeah I clearly do!
So laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Still, but it's right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on

They found their niche. Started of strong as fuck never faded away. Their latest stuff is brilliant.

[@officialunderrated9403]

For everyone who is complaining about the way their music has changed just understand that they have aged another 10/15 years since this album came out, their music has changed with their age, you can’t expect somebody to do the same thing for fifteen years, they will grow with technique and stuff

[@fakegamergworl]

Was thinking this after going back and forth with new and old AM today.. they’ve changed so much but only as much as any normal person, it’s just maginifed bc they’re in the spotlight and we watch them GROW not change

[@officialunderrated9403]

Chloe Atkins precisely but nevertheless that first album will always be legendary

Such nostalgia! My sister brought this album back after studying abroad in London over a decade ago and I have loved them since. Not surprised that they've became so big!

[@rosePetrichor]

Nothing has ever hit the same way again as this song did. There's nothing that quite sings 'wistful melancholy' like Mardy Bum. For those of us who were teenagers when Whatever People Say I Am came out, it's extra special. We grew up on this strange generation of music, twenty-somethings singing songs that evoke feelings of rose-tinted good old days none of us were yet old enough to have, not knowing that they'd be the good old days we'd one day wish to return to. No wonder we all grew up to be depressed and full of ennui, eh.

This reminds me of my year 10&11 GCSE drama lessons... damm they would some good times 👌 our teacher created a CD for us with songs from various performances or songs in general which reminded him of us & this was one of them... every time I hear this now I just think of all the good times we had in drama! With one the best teachers ever Woody!

[@paypointpal]

Arctic Monkeys are amazing. I love all their music, older stuff to the newer,slightly different stuff. But there is a king of magic about the this first album, ''Whatever people say i am,that's what im not''There is a song on that album for everyday when im feeling different, perfect mix of up beat, emotional, touching, just pure lyrical genius from the monkeys. It's a shame music seems to be all about rap & boring pop music now. Wish people would open their ears to the Arctic monkeys more.

[@jdmc9538]

[@SadPeterPan1977]

Still remember when this album was first released and laughing like a drain at a newspaper article that had a handy section translating of some of the words like 'mardy' for the southerners who didn't understand them or at the bit where they seriously analysed the deep poetic meaning of the lyric 'got the face on' without apparently knowing every Sheffield parent has said that to describe their child's tantrums for generations.
