@@MM-vs2et in terms of a career, they're glad that alex didn't become just a poet, and by writer in terms of a journalist or author. Instead he became a musician.
Fools on parade cavort and carry on For waiting eyes That you would rather be beside than in front of But she's never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares She swam out of tonight's phantasm Grabbed my hand and made it very clear There's absolutely nothing for us here It's a magnolia celebration To be attempted on a Wednesday night It's better than to get a reputation As a miserable little tyke At least that's the conclusion She came to in this overture The secret door swings behind us She's saying nothing She's just giggling along Her arms were folded most indignant Not looking like she was soon to leave I had to squint in order to believe And then like a butler pushing on a bookshelf I'm unveiling the unexpected How she was never gonna look to? Suddenly embarrassed and corrected How could such a creature Survive in such a habitat The secret door swings behind us She's saying nothing She's just giggling along And even if they were to find us I wouldn't notice, I'm completely occupied At all the fools on parade Cavort and carry on for waiting eyes That you would rather be beside than in front of But she's never been the kind To be hollowed by the stares Fools on parade Frolic and fuck about to make her gaze Turn to a scribble on a page by a picture That holds her options But you're daft to think she'd care Fools on parade Fools on parade Fools on parade Conduct a sing-along
I'm surprised how many people don't know about RU-vid video to mp3 downloaders!! As long as you find one from a reliable source and make sure you try and check out details on the website your downloading then it from. Also a good idea to have anti virus just on case. Loving this version btw! I'm seeing them live on October in London the night of my 19th bday, once it turns midnight anyway. I cannot wait to see Alex Turner, to know I'm only gonna be a few ft from him as Im near the front row!!!!

I usually like Acoustic versions of their songs but I don't think this song is suited to being played acoustically. It doesn't have the same spiralling, ethereal effect.
@danielmcardle01 eye but if you actually listened to the song you would realize he changes the lyrics at the end too fools in berets. im pretty sure were all aware for the majority of the song he says fools on parade.

@Guitarjb08 so... in summary, so far...:) the real words are fools on parade, but he defo doesn't say that here. The top contenders are 'fools in praise'; 'fools in parades'; and the outsider 'fools in berre's'. It's a difficult one to call but theres a part of me that wants it to be berre's, and the more I hear it... :)
Yeah well fuck going to uni if you're making millions in a band, i think I did read somewhere (maybe wiki) that Alex was asked what he wood have done if the band hadn't made it and he said he probably would have done English literature at uni, which is probably where the guy is getting this from, have no idea what source this was or its credibility so you may be right in saying that he had no intention of going.
fools on parade ! fools in praise ???? that makes no damn sense at all, this is a genius song writer, i dont think he would make "fools in praise" part of his chorus lol
This was so beautiful I could almost cry. Alex Turner I love you! One of his best writings defo! Amazing dark deep gloomy kind og tune. Bful lyrics. This song is everything!
