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 (1)________ to rain
On anybody's cabriolet
One of (2)__________ games you're going to lose
But you want to play it just in case

Now it's getting dark and the sky looks sticky
More like black treacle than tar
Black treacle
Somebody told the stars
You're not coming out tonight

And so they found a (3)__________ to hide

Does it help you (4)________ up late?
Does it help you concentrate?
Does it tune you in when you chew (5)________ chin?
Am I ruining your fun?
And you (6)________ the talk alright
But do you walk the (7)________ or (8)__________ the train?
You wanted it, you got it
But you don't want it now

Now it's getting dark and the sky looks sticky
More like (9)__________ treacle than tar
Black treacle
Somebody told the stars
You're not coming out tonight

And so they found a place to hide

And now I'm out of place
And I'm not getting any wiser
I feel like the sundance kid
Behind a synthesizer
And I tried last night to pack away a laugh
Like a key under the mat
But it never seems to be there
When you want it
