It’s Bank Holiday Monday in the UK – their equivalent of one of our public holidays (specifically the one we had last Tuesday). But this one is the first proper one of Spring there, and is widely regarded as an opportunity to spruce up the house and garden ready for the day they call Summer.
In honour of this, poet Brian Bilston has helpfully rewritten the lyrics to Sheffield band the Arctic Monkeys’ 2006 hit I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor with a DIY slant.
Just in case you don’t know the original, here it is:
Legendary sounds.
And here are Brian’s alternative lyrics, delivered in jpeg poetry form:
Very, very, clever, as always.
Happy Holidays, UK readers.
