Lyrics of Vertigo by The Libertines
verse
Karima knows that just what it is she does
That it can't be hard for her to get a buzz
Down in the street below
Hear the drunken archangel sing
I know what's on your mind, my boy
verse
Just I can see, oh, everything
Lead pipes, your fortunes made
Well, take a tip from me
Climb up to her window ledge, or you'll forever be
chorus
Just walking under ladders as the people 'round you hear you crying, "Please"
As the people 'round you hear you crying, "Please"
As they hear you-
verse
Lead pipes are fortunes made
Well, take a tip from me
Climb up to her window ledge, or you'll forever be
chorus
Just walking under ladders as the people 'round you hear you crying, "Please"
As the people 'round you hear you crying "Please"
"Please, please"
verse
Who really knows that just what it is she does?
It can't be hard for her to get a buzz
The rapture of vertigo and letting go
But me, myself, and I was never sure
Was it liquor or was it my soul?
Writer(s): Peter Doherty, Carl Barat
