  • He knew what he wanted to say
    But he did not want to word it
    The dirty little Herbert
    Was seeking an escape

    But the place was well-guarded
    The guiltiness that started
    Soon as the other part had stopped

    "D" is for delightful
    And try and keep your trousers on
    I think you should know you're his favorite worst nightmare

    "D" is for desperately trying to simulate
    What it was that was all right
    Three quarters of an hour ago
    That had led him to be in a position
    On the brink of a mission
    On the brink of an episode

    He's nearing the brink but he thinks first
    A parallel universe perhaps could be the perfect scene
    He's nearing the brink but he thinks first
    A parallel universe perhaps could be the perfect scene
    He's nearing the brink but he thinks first
    A parallel universe perhaps could be the perfect scene
    He's nearing the brink but he thinks first
    A parallel
    I think you should know you're his favorite worst nightmare

    "D" is for delightful
    And try and keep your trousers on
    You should know you're his favorite worst nightmare Writer/s: Alex Turner
