Artic Monkeys - Teddy Picker

Quizás los hayais oido en alguna ocasion, quizás no. Este grupo de adolescentes ingleses fue encumbrado gracias al poder de internet, de hecho me atrevería a decir que fue el primer fenomeno musical salido de la internet 2.0; es decir, de páginas como myspace... lo más gracioso de todo es que ellos no lo hicieron, fueron sus fans. Eso si, creo que lo merecen.
Tienen en su haber dos discos: Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006) y Favourite Worst Nightmare (2007). Son jovenes y buenos. Esperemos que no acaben como tantas otras promesas.

Aquí os dejo el videoclip.

Letra:
    They've sped up to the point where they provoke
    The punchline before they have told the joke
    Plenty of desperation to be seen
    Staring at the television screen

    They've sped up to the point where they provoke
    You to tell the fucking punchline before you have told the joke
    Sorry sunshine it doesn't exist
    It wasn't in the top 100 list

    And it's the thousandth time that it's even bolder,
    Don't be surprised when you get bent over,
    They told ya,but you were dying for it

    She saw it and she grabbed it and it wasn't what it seemed
    The kids all dream of making it, whatever that means
    Another variation on a theme
    A tangle on the television and the magazine
    D'you reckon that they do it for a joke?
    D'you reckon that they make 'em take an oath?
    That says "we are defenders
    Of any poseur or professional
    pretender around"

    When did your list replace the twist and turn
    like a fist replaced a kiss, don't concernus with your bollocks
    I don't want your prayers
    Save it for the morning after

    And it's the thousandth time and it's even bolder,
    Don't be surprised when you get bent over,
    They told ya, but you were gagging for it

    Lets have a game on the Teddy Picker
    Not quick enough can I have it quicker?
    Already thick and you're getting thicker
    Lets have a game on the Teddy Picker
    Not quick enough can I have it quicker?
    Already thick and you're getting thicker

    Assuming that all things are equal,
    Who'd want to be men of the people
    When there's people like you?
