Arctic Monkeys - the ultracheese

과거의 친구들, 특별한 순간들을 떠올리며 그리움을 느끼지만, 현재는 친구 관계가 소원해졌음을 깨닫는다
오랜만의 방문에 놀라고, 예전의 즐거움을 잊어가는 자신을 돌아보며 자신의 고독을 인정한다
결국, 생각에 잠긴 듯 보이지만 실상은 깊은 생각이 아닐지도 모른다는 아이러니를 담고 있다

Still got pictures of friends on the wall
I suppose we aren't really friends anymore
Maybe I shouldn't ever have called that thing friendly at all
Get freaked out from a knock at the door
When I haven't been expecting one
And didn't that used to be part of the fun, once upon a time?
We'll be there at the back of the bar
In a booth like we usually were
Every time there was a rocket launch or some big event
What a death I died writing that song
Start to finish, with you looking on
It stays between us, Steinway, and his sons
'Cause it's the ultracheese
Perhaps it's time that you went for a walk
Dressed like a fictional character
From a place they called America in the golden age
Trust the politics to come along
When you were just tryna orbit the sun
When you were just about to be kind to someone
Because you had the chance
I still got pictures of friends on the wall
I might look as if I'm deep in thought
But the truth is I'm probably not
If I ever was
