Star Treatment

Arctic Monkeys

Transposer:

Intro: (Oooh) (Yeah) (Oooh) (Oooh) verse 1 I just wanted to be one of The Strokes Now look at the mess you made me make Hitchhiking with a monogrammed suitcase Miles away from any half-useful imaginary highway I’m a big name in deep space ask your mates But golden boy’s in bad shape I found out the hard way that Here ain’t no place for dolls like you and me Everybody’s on a barge Floating down the endless stream of great TV 1984 2019 Pre-Chorus 1 Maybe I was a little too wild in the ’70s Rocket-ship grease down the cracks of my knuckles Karate bandana warp speed chic Hair down to there impressive moustache Love came in a bottle with a twist-off cap Let’s all have a swig and do a hot lap So who you gonna call? The martini police? Baby that isn’t how they look tonight oh no It took the light forever to get to your eyes verse 2 I just wanted to be one of those ghosts You thought that you could forget And then I haunt you via the rear view mirror On a long drive from the back seat But it’s alright ’cause you love me And you recognise that it’s ain’t how it should be Your eyes are heavy and the weather’s getting ugly So pull over I know the place Don’t you know an apparition is a cheap date? What exactly is it you’ve been drinking these days? Jukebox in the corner long hot summer They’ve got a film up on the wall and it’s dark enough to dance What do you mean you’ve never seen Blade Runner? Pre-Chorus 2 Oh maybe I was a little too wild in the ’70s Back down to earth with a lounge singer shimmer Elevator down to my make believe residency From the honeymoon suite Two shows a day four nights a week Easy money So who you gonna call? The martini police? Ooooh So who you gonna call? The martini police? Oh baby that isn’t how they look tonight It took the light absolutely forever to get to your eyes Outro And as we gaze skyward ain’t it dark early? It’s the star treatment yeah And as we gaze skyward ain’t it dark early? It’s the star treatment It’s the star treatment The star treatment Outro

La chanson évoque le désenchantement et les aspirations brisées d’un artiste en quête de reconnaissance. Le protagoniste exprime ce sentiment d'être égaré, jonglant entre sa célébrité dans un monde superficiel et une nostalgie pour des temps plus simples, où il aspiraient à être une figure emblématique comme celle des Strokes. Il se retrouve dans une réalité morose, se remémorant des souvenirs de soirées festives et d’amours éphémères, tout en réalisant que le glamour de la vie d'artiste peut être illusoire. Le contexte mérite d'être noté : la chanson fait référence à cette juxtaposition entre la célébrité et la solitude, un thème courant dans l'univers du rock et de la musique en général. C’est un regard critique sur l'insatisfaction qui peut accompagner le succès, teinté d'une pointe de mélancolie et d'ironie.
