CEC -EPN Been wondering if your heart's still open and if so I

wanna know what time it shuts


BEGINNER Simmer down and pucker up

I'm sorry to interrupt. It's just I'm constantly on the cusp


Name: of trying to kiss you

I don't know if you feel the same as I do


Date:
But we could be together if you wanted to
Song: Do I Wanna Know?

By: Arctic Monkeys (5) (Do I wanna know?)

If this feeling flows both ways?


What is the correct order in the next prases?
(Sad to see you go)
(1) Have you got colour in your cheeks? Was sort of hoping that you'd stay
Do you ever get that fear that you can't shift (Baby, we both know)
The type that sticks around like summat in your teeth? That the nights were mainly made for saying things
Are there some aces up your sleeve? that you can't say tomorrow day

Have you no idea that you're in deep?

I dreamt about you nearly every night this week (6) Crawling back to you (crawling back to you)

How many secrets can you keep? Ever thought of calling when you've had a few? (you've
had a few)
'Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of
you somehow and I play it on repeat 'Cause I always do ('cause I always do)

Until I fall asleep Maybe I'm too (maybe I'm too busy) busy being yours
to fall for somebody new
Spilling drinks on my settee
Now I've thought it through

(2) (Do I wanna know?)


(7) Crawling back to you
If this feeling flows both ways?
(Do I wanna know?)
(Sad to see you go)
If this feeling flows both ways?
Was sort of hoping that you'd stay
(Sad to see you go)
(Baby, we both know)
Was sort of hoping that you'd stay
That the nights were mainly made for saying things
that you can't say tomorrow day (Baby, we both know)

That the nights were mainly made for saying things


that you can't say tomorrow day
(3) Crawling back to you

Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?


(8) (Do I wanna know?)
'Cause I always do
Too busy being yours to fall
Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody
new (Sad to see you go)

Now I've thought it through Ever thought of calling darling?

(Do I wanna know?)

(4) Crawling back to you Do you want me crawling back to you?

So have you got the guts?


England's Arctic Monkeys began when teenaged neighbors Alex Turner and
Jamie Cook received guitars for Christmas 2001; soon, the pair was rehearsing
with school friends Andy Nicholson (bass) and Matt Helders (drums). They
began playing locally in mid-2003 and soon began handing out CD-R demos to
fans, who took it upon themselves to file-share the songs. This in turn
bolstered Arctic Monkeys' fan base, which was further consolidated when the
music was uploaded onto a fan-created MySpace page for the band. British
fans were especially impressed with Turner's thickly-accented vocals and
pointed lyrical style, which commented on British youth culture and mores.
A 2005 EP, Five Minutes with Arctic Monkeys, was pressed onto limited-
edition vinyl and CD, as well as digitally via iTunes, and they began playing
small stages at British festivals, drawing large crowds. The band's debut single,
"I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor," went to Number One in the U.K. in
late 2005; the following January, their first album, Whatever People Say I Am,
That's What I'm Not, became one of the fastest-selling British albums of all
time, beating the first Oasis album as the biggest debut in U.K. rock history.
(It debuted at Number 24 in the U.S.) The second single, "When the Sun Goes
Down," was also a U.K. Number One hit. By April 2006, they issued an EP
called Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys?, featuring new material. Shortly
afterward, founding bassist Nicholson left the group, citing exhaustion from
touring. Nick O'Malley, another Sheffieldian who'd played with the Dodgems,
filled in on tour and soon became a permanent menter. Together, the newly
refurbished quartet recorded a new single, "Leave Before the Lights Come
On," released that August. In April 2007, Arctic Monkeys' second album,
Favourite Worst Nightmare, was issued, going straight to Number 1 in the U.K.
and Number 7 in America. Turner and Miles Kane of the Rascals formed a side
project called the Last Shadow Puppets, and released The Age of
Understatement in May 2008.
