Miracle Aligner
The Last Shadow Puppets Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell him what you want and baby he can find you anything you need
Tell him what you're needing, hey, oh
Come on miracle aligner
Go and get 'em tiger
Get down on your knees
Get down on your knees again oh

Fifty feet tall and revved up too high
All of our exchanges are by candle light
I just realized
He'll walk through the walls and creep up behind
Make sense of the maze that you were stuck outside
Cover your eyes

Often the humble kind but he can't deny
He was born to blow your mind
Or something along those lines, tonight

Tell him what you want and baby he can find you anything you need
Tell him what you're needing, hey, oh
Come on miracle aligner, go and get 'em tiger
Get down on your knees, get down on your knees again, oh oh

So what's the wish, he'll make it come true
Simple as a line out of a doo wop tune
He'll make the moves

Often the humble kind but he can't deny
He was born to blow your mind
Or something along those lines
Tonight

Tell him what you want and baby he can find you anything you need
Tell him what you're needing, hey, oh
Come on miracle aligner, go and get 'em tiger
Get down on your knees, get down on your knees again, oh oh

Overall Meaning

“Miracle Aligner” by The Last Shadow Puppets is a track about a take-charge girl who is instructing her lover to give her everything that she wants and needs. The song opens with the girl telling her lover, “Tell him what you want and baby he can find you anything you need. Tell him what you're needing, hey, oh” and encourages him to please her the way she desires. The phrase "Miracle Aligner" is used to describe the male lover who the girl believes can resolve any problem and fulfill her wishes. The lyrics also describe how the girl thinks the guy is “humble" but with the ability to "blow her mind," and that he can "walk through the walls and creep up behind" and "make sense of the maze that you were stuck outside."


The verses mention the girl’s admiration for her partner, comparing him to "five feet tall and revved up too high," while "all of our exchanges are by candlelight" and that "He'll make the moves". The track finally concludes with the girl instructing her partner in the chorus, "Get down on your knees, oh oh / Get down on your knees again, oh-oh."


Overall, the core theme of the song appears to be the idea of control and submission. The girl character is portrayed as being dominant and demanding, while the guy is more passive and willing to do whatever she wants. It's a modern-day interpretation of the classic narrative of the man who will do anything to please the woman in his life.
