My Propeller
Arctic Monkeys Lyrics

If you can summon the strength, tow me
I can't hold down the urgency
You've got to make your descent slowly
And oil up those sticky keys

Coax me out my low
And have a spin of my propeller

It's a necessary evil
No cause for emergency
Borrowed the beak of a bald eagle
Oh, momentary synergy

Coax me out my low
Sink into tomorrow
Coax me out my low
And have a spin of my propeller

My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?
My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?
My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?
My propeller

Coax me out my low and have a spin of my propeller

It's a necessary evil
No cause for emergency
Borrowed the beak off a bald eagle
Oh, momentary synergy

Coax me out my low
Sink in to tomorrow
Coax me out my low and have a spin of my propeller

My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?

Si puedes reunir la fuerza, remolcame
No puedo aguantar la urgencia
Tienes que hacer tu descenso lentamente.
Y engrasar esas llaves pegajosas.

Engánchame y dale un giro a mi hélice.

Es un mal necesario
No hay causa de emergencia.
Me prestó el pico de un águila calva
Oh, sinergia momentánea.

Engánrame a mi baja
Hundirse en mañana
Engánchame y dale un giro a mi hélice.

Mi hélice no gira y no puedo arrancar por mi cuenta
¿Cuando estás llegando?
Mi hélice no gira y no puedo arrancar por mi cuenta
¿Cuando estás llegando?
Mi hélice no gira y no puedo arrancar por mi cuenta
¿Cuando estás llegando?

I've become a huge fan of Arctic Monkeys, but I'm questioning deeply why their fanbase is a bunch of damn hipsters. You either get the fans that hate other fans for liking "Do I wanna know" ( which is a great song, so like... are they wrong for liking it because its on the radio? And... can you honestly deny being a hipster if that's your reason? ) or you get the type that are like "This song is so underrated and underplayed." I see this on pretty much every song, even though this song has had 5.3 MILLION views.

Please stop turning good bands into cults. Just enjoy the music.

I don't know why but it bothers me that some of their songs are heard too much, i guess it sounds ridiculous to listen to these songs just because everyone is listening and that's exactly what happens when a song is mainstream, it's only my thought.

Years later you'd see tiktok culture gatekeeping this band eventho we all know arctic monkeys is nothing closer to indie or undiscovered. Me personally i'd just avoid these people cus it makes me hard to enjoy these boys' works

When Alex were a lad, he used to buy those polystyrene aeroplanes. You know the ones, where you got 3 strips that would slot together to make a hand held aeroplane that you could throw and it would glide through the air. Well, you also got a propeller for the front of it. One day, Alex and Jamie went to the corner shop for a 10p 'mix up' and an aeroplane to play with down the old quarry. But when he opened up the packet he discovered no propeller! So... He went back to the corner shop to speak to the keeper, "Propeller is missin' from this mr" he said. "There's nothin' I can do bonny lad... Sorry" replied the shop keeper. "But I bought it from 'ere" Alex responded, "Aye.. Well it must of been a bad batch. You'll have to take it up with Plane makers. Bugger off!" Shouted the keeper. Alex then ran home as fast as his legs could carry him. He proceeded to ring the number on the back of the packet. After explaining his situation, the Plane makers agreed to send Alex a new propeller. It would take 5 days to arrive however. After day 2, Alex and Jamie were very bored and getting impatient. Seeing this, Alex's mam told them to write a song about their situation. MY PROPELLER was born!!! And so, we are here, listening to My Propeller.. Not about a penis, but about a young boy wanting to play with his toy aeroplane down the old quarry.

Am I the only one who doesn't think this song is a sexual innuendo? To me this is like being in love with a girl who doesn't give you the attention you're craving. When the girl isn't around, you're depressed and de-motivated. "When are you arriving?" He wants to see her badly so that he can feel uplifted again, and the propeller allows him to start moving again and being motivated. Sure it can have a sexual meaning too, but I don't really like to think of it that way imo.

Cadence

Yeah same here, I never thought of it as an innuendo and I have a pretty dirty mind. I always felt like it was about feeling down and out of it and just craving the attention of someone with that magical power to bring him back to reality and inspire him, I could be wrong but I doubt he'd go around flaunting his dick problems. Lyrics like "if you can summon the strength, pull me" and "I cant hold down the urgency" kind of embody that weakness that comes with mental exhaustion, at least, that's how I interpreted it.

"Many fans have interpreted the song title as a double-entendre and Alex Turner's lyrics to be of an uncharacteristically sexual nature. The Arctic Monkeys lyricist and chief songwriter denied this interpretation of the song's meaning to The London Times: "Absolutely not," Turner said. "If that was a euphemism, then I wouldn't be saying that my propeller wouldn't spin - 'cos you wouldn't wanna go shouting that out, would you?"
When pressed as to what the song is really about, he added: "It's more describing a mood more than an organ. A descent. It's about a descent." Turner refused to elaborate any further. "

I feel like the meaning of the song refers to everybody having their own personal propeller (metaphor for their driving force in life), and you will always need somebody beside you to help that propeller spin.

I can't help it but notice some similarities between this and Ocean Planet by Gojira, like, the very beggining where the instrumental stops and then carries on so fluently

If you can summon the strength, tow me
I can't hold down the urgency
You've got to make your descent slowly
And oil up those sticky keys
Coax me out my low
And have a spin of my propeller
It's a necessary evil
No cause for emergency
Borrowed the beak of a bald eagle
Oh, momentary synergy
Coax me out my low
Sink into tomorrow
Coax me out my low
And have a spin of my propeller
My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?
My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?
My propeller won't spin and I can't get it started on my own
When are you arriving?
My propeller

A movie ends with a blackout. The song starts at 2:16 right when the credits start rolling and it just continues instrumentally with no lyrics while the credits are rolling. That's what I always think about.
