Metronomy - The Look Lyrics






You're up and you'll get down
You never running from this town

Kinda think you said
You'll never get anything better than this

'Cause you're going round in circles
And everyone knows you're trouble

Cause you read it in a big book
And now you giving me the look look
But just remember how we shook shook
And all the things we took took

This town's the oldest friend of mine

Get up and we get down
We're always running round this town

And to think I said
We'd never make anything better than this

'Cause we're always in small circles
And everyone thinks we're trouble

We didn't read it in the big book
And now we're giving you the look look
Just remember how we shook shook
And all the things we took took

This town... This town...
This town's the oldest friend of mine
This town... This town... This town...

Metronomy The Look Comments
  1. Y.... d....

    I just scrolled down and there's a comment I made 7 years ago and I have no fucking idea what I was trying to say.

    I worked at a record store during the summer of 2015. A the end of the intership, I got offered to take back home 3 CDs with me and this album was one of them !

  4. C.... ....

    I first heard this song at a restaurant in whistler that served food for 5.95. I Shazamed it and I saw it had 1,166,999 Shazam’s.

  5. O.... G....

    Exceptionnel.... Séduction... 😬 😍

  6. q.... ....

    This song would have been perfect in the GTA V soundtrack, also to make a really nice contrast with the song that’s already in the soundtrack called “from nowhere (baardsen remix)” by Dan Croll because part of that song sounds very similar to the main melody of this one.

  7. l.... ....

    Its too short

  8. P.... A....

    What were you using when u called this "song"?

  9. N.... A....

  15. H.... ....

  16. J.... G....

    Everytime I hear this song, I think to myself They made something so big !!! Bigger than my head would accept, Bigger than my heart would rate, Bigger than everything i know... Maybe that's the reason why I love this track...

    J.... G....

    Indeed, "Maybe"

    J.... G....

  23. T.... ....

    Love that Yamaha GX-1, a true legend, a rare and mythical beast. Odd that they use it for a generic organ sound.

  24. C.... C....

  42. b.... M....

  43. C.... F....

    At first I tought this song was from 2019 or maybe 2018 but then I realized these guys predicted today's alternative music style almost 9 years ago, woah!

  44. A.... ....

    Is this a CS80 that this guy's playing?

  45. R.... T....

    BRAZIL ON YES MUSIC TOP

  46. R.... M....

    🔥🔥🔥 I found this song long ago listening to a two inch punch remix to this song.

  47. x.... H....

    A long time ago in a galaxy far far away.... i was riding in the car with.... hmmm well let's call them "family" (I'm saying that to be humorous because they WERE my actual family) And out of nowhere my mom and sister start a passive aggressive chat. A chat that excluded me, even though i was riding in the car with them, and my mom says how she ONLY likes MALE VOICES in Music. As an Incredibly gifted singer hoping to find bandmates someday i was feeling very abused, because if you heard the way it was said then you'd know they meant it to be mean and discouraging and "shit-talking gossipy." I never sang for them, because i was suicidal and shy. My voice was only for God and my Choir Teacher to Hear. So it's not as if my AWFUL singing was BOTHERING them daily as i "practiced, and bugged them to listen to it sounding shitty." I'm lucky im not dead yet because of them and the cruel people who wound up drugging and abducting and hurting me i got further lead away from safety just for the desperate yearning to escape them.

    x.... H....

    Take your own road, ditch the "family" , and above all, take care of yourself.

    x.... H....

    JarlavDon I agree with you 💯

  48. c.... w....

    Never have i seen a better marriage of song and video.

  49. C.... ....

    pure synth!!

  50. I.... p....

    como chingaos no conocía a este grupazo ????

  51. b.... ....

    I can't get enough of the bassline in this song. It is so good.

  52. r.... s....

  53. T.... ....

  60. j.... r....

    2020 baby!

  61. p.... p....

    ughh my friend always puts these songs (among others types of music) and when I'm alone I feel like hearing them, but this one, I couldn't remember the name of the band. I almost cry of desperation trying to remember and searching in the internet. I feel so relieved of find the name. For the next time, I'm going to ask my friend to write down all the bands and music she has shown me.

    p.... p....

    She? is troubled with knowledge....

    Hony já que a Vivi ficou sem música tema eu peguei esse hino para me destacar como a musa da novela

  76. �.... �....

    когда-то давно услышал эту группу по рекомендации какого-то музыкального обзора интернет издания, то-ли Афиша, может быть Village... сегодня в предложке появилось - бля! да сейчас все модные, категории «не для всех», композиции так звучат...

  77. J.... M....

    Conheci essa música em 2019 e fiquei sem acreditar quando vi esse clipe datado de 2011 e soa tão atual! Hino atemporal!

    You're up and you'll get down
    You never running from this town
    Kinda think you said
    You'll never get anything better than this
    'Cause you're going round in a circle
    And everyone knows you're trouble
    'Cause you read it in a big book
    And now you're giving me the look look
    But just remember how we shook shook
    And all the things we took took
    This town's the oldest friend of mine

    Get up and we get down
    We're always running round this town
    And to think they said
    We'd never make anything better than this
    'Cause we're always in small circles
    And everyone thinks we're trouble
    We didn't read it in the big book
    And now we're giving you the look look
    Just remember how we shook shook
    And all the things we took took
    This town's the oldest friend of mine

  83. G.... ....
