Black Treacle by Arctic Monkeys

Lately I've been seeing things
Belly button piercings
In the sky at night
When we're side by side
And I don't mean to rain
On anybody's cabriolet
One of (1)__________ games you're (2)__________ to lose
But you want to (3)________ it just in case

Now it's getting dark and the sky looks sticky
More like black treacle (4)________ tar
Black treacle
Somebody (5)________ the stars
You're not coming out tonight

And so they found a (6)__________ to hide

Does it (7)________ you stay up late?
Does it help you concentrate?
Does it tune you in (8)________ you chew your chin?
Am I (9)______________ your fun?
And you (10)________ the (11)________ alright
But do you (12)________ the walk or catch the train?
You wanted it, you got it
But you don't want it now

Now it's getting dark and the sky (13)__________ sticky
More (14)________ black treacle (15)________ tar
Black treacle
Somebody (16)________ the stars
You're not (17)____________ out tonight

And so (18)________ found a place to hide

And now I'm out of place
And I'm not getting any wiser
I feel like the (19)________________ kid
Behind a synthesizer
And I (20)__________ (21)________ night to pack away a laugh
Like a key under the mat
But it (22)__________ seems to be there
When you (23)________ it
