The Fratellis - Alive
Is she alive? Can she just not say?
Is the end of the last of the first heartbreaks?
She can't understand
Ready though that she is, she cannot think straight
Is she alive? Can she twist her fate?
All the boys on the radio dance floor
They won't understand at all
There was a question, oh, that she once revered
Like the itch of the just meets the call of the weird
Left unanswеred underneath and abovе
So she danced all alone and got ready for love
And so she moves slow through those doe eyes
That once held so entertained
Only this remained, nobody explained
If she cries all night, is she alive, is she just not quite?
Will she survive all the plasticine husbands?
It's nothing that The Book won't cure
Maybe all the secrets that she knows won't save her
What doesn't kill you makes you that bit stranger
She was everything they needed when they needed what they needed
Now she can't understand at all
There was a question, oh, that she once revered
Like the itch of the just meets the call of the weird
Left unanswered underneath and above
So she danced all alone and got ready for love
And so she moves slow, through those doe eyes
That once held her so entertained
Only this remained, nobody explained
Maybe she was orphaned when the floor gave way
Is she alive? Can she just not say?
Is this a trick of the light from a gun shy boy?
She can't understand
Never catch her eye if you cannot swim
Are you alive? Are your chances slim?
You better pray that she just won't take you
Cause you won't understand at all
There was a question, oh, that she once revered
Like the itch of the just meets the call of the weird
Left unanswered underneath and above
So she danced all alone and got ready for love
And so she moves slow through those doe eyes
That once held her so entertained
Only this remained, nobody explained
She can't understand at all
She can't understand at all
She can't understand at all
She can't understand at all
She can't understand at all
She can't understand at all
She can't understand at all

The Fratellis - Need A Little Love
It was time i figured out what everybody knew Life is lived in black and white if i don’t have you Oh you can make my head spin all night long By your sweet side, that’s the place

Ghost lights on the water almost makes you shiver Black dog at 4am oh baby just surrender When you've had enough all this entertainment Come to me and I’ll slip you the answer
The Fratellis - Hello Stranger
Hello stranger it’s been oh so long Since we rode our luck where we once belonged I think of you sometimes when the air is clear I wonder are you near? Sometimes the end is
The Fratellis - Yes Sir, I Can Boogie
Darlin', your eyes are heavy with frustration It makes me wonder If i'm the one you've waited for Baby, though i'm shy by reputation Ask all your fans,

{Verse 1} Well she's halfway over this hard on sun She's not gone yet but she's leaving And she's quite sure she's not the only one She's not
The Fratellis - Whisky Saga
{verse 1} Well here lie the remains Of every girl i've loved The princesses of heaven and hell Who thought they knew me well There goes my wishbone Here

{Verse 1} Well, little girl You can roll your eyes at the very sight of me Do everything in spite of me But, baby, don't you lie to me I'll take your mood
The Fratellis - Thief
{Verse 1} She's made of fire And she's made of wind She can take you higher But she's not your friend {Bridge 1} She don't beg,

{Verse 1} You wear your mask, I wear mine They don't come cheap, but they fit just fine You can be her and I can be him We'll go sink while the rest all swim
The Fratellis - Dogtown
{Verse 1} There's a snakeskin bedroom bang in the middle Of a funny little place called hell Everybody there's got trouble by the dozen It's a lonely little
