It's hard to get around the wind - Alex Turner

It's like you're trying to get to heaven in a hurry

And the queue was shorter

Than you'd thought it'd be

And the doorman says

You need to get a wristband

You gotta live between the pitfalls

But you're looking like you're low on energy

Did you get out and walk

To ensure you'd miss the quicksand

Looking for a new place to begin

Feeling like it's hard to understand

But as long as you still

Keep peppering the pill

You'll find a way to spit it out again

And even when you know

The way it's gonna blow

It's hard to get around the wind

Stretching out the neck on your evening

Trying to even out some deficit

But it's saber toothed multi bowled confusion

And you can shriek until you're hollow

Or whisper it the other way

Trying to save the youth

Without putting your shoes on

Looking for a new place to begin

Feeling like it's hard to understand

But as long as you still

Keep peppering the pill

You'll find a way to spit it out again

And even when you know

The way it's gonna blow

It's hard to get around the wind

I can hear you through my window

But I'm never quite sure who is who

But they want the world on a dessert spoon

It always sounds like they're fighting

Or as if that's what they're about to do

It might not hurt now but it's gonna hurt soon
