Good Shoes - Under Control

Recipe: A cup of The Rifles, a tablespoon of We Are Scientists and a dash of the Arctic Monkeys

    This song reminds me a lot of The Rifles’ The Great Escape, because its a short, sweet song sung a guy with a cute ol’ British voice. Only difference is that this song talks about dealing with a girlfriend and keeping her “under control.” Think of this song as a comical way to send hints to your girlfriend. And by hints, I mean the reality that the concept of the ideal woman/man is like a drug. But don’t take my word for it, just take a look at Sarkozy’s facial expression and the following lyrics from Under Control:

But she always wants more 
Of what I’ve got to supply 

The more I want 
The less I’m feelin’ 
The more I get 
The less I need it 

She’s got me Under Control, She’s got me Under Control
