Attention Lyrics by The Raconteurs

Consolers of the Lonely

2008

[Verse 1]
Hey!
Now that you have my attention
What are you gonna do?
You might have good intentions
But they're not coming through
You're very pleased with yourself, I see
It's like a walk in the park
You aren't enlightened by anybody else
'Cause you can see in the dark
[Chorus]
Got a lock, got a key
Got some kind of vise-like grip on me
On a leash, by the reins
Got a look that puts me in chains
[Verse 2]
I tried a subtle suggestion
A more direct approach
I can't make a connection
You're beyond reproach
No need for petty excuses
No need for thumbing around
I don't know what the use is
Or what you're throwing down
[Chorus]
Got a lock, got a key
Got some kind of vise-like grip on me
On a leash, by the reins
Got a look that puts me in chains
[Bridge]
Do you love the reflection?
Do you love the reflection?
Do you like what you see?
Do you like the attention?
Do you like the attention you get from me?
Hey yeah, hey hey
Now that you have my attention
Got some kind of vise-like grip on me
[Outro]
Got a lock
Got a key
