Stuck on the Puzzle
Alex Turner
I'm not the kind of fool
Who's gonna sit and sing to you,
About stars, girl.
"I'm not the kind of fool who's gonna sit and sing to you" I think comes from how there are all these other guys swooning over this one girl and playing the Romeo and singing her love songs, whereas Oliver (the lad in the song/film) is setting him self away from all that by not doing things like that.

But last night I looked up into
The dark half of the blue,
And they'd gone backwards.

Something in your magnetism
Must have pissed them off,
Forcing them to get an early night.

I have been searching from
The bottom to the top
For such a sight
As the one I caught when I saw your
The bottom to the top
For such a sight
As the one I caught when I saw your
Fingers dimming in the lights (Dimming the lights usually mean "setting a mood")
Like your used to being told that you're trouble
And I spent all night
Stuck on the puzzle.
Since the song is from the soundtrack of a film called submarine, I think the "stuck on the puzzle" phrase stems from how the lad in the story can't quite understand why he's so obsessed with this kind of girl because he knows that if he stays she will destroy him and leave him but she is too beautiful too leave which the "I tried to swim to the side bit" comes from. The "puzzle" is why he likes her so much.

Nobody I asked
Knew how he came to be the one
To whom you surrendered
Knew how he came to be the one
To whom you surrendered
Any man who wasn't led away
Into the other room
Stood pretending
Into the other room
Stood pretending
That something in your magnetism
Hadn't just made him drop
Whoever's hand it was that he was holding.
I think this is referring to the fact that the boys were so attracted by this girls "Magnetism" that they unconsciously dropped whoever's hand they were holding.

I tried to swim to thee side
But my feet got caught in the middle
And I thought I'd seen the light
But oh no.

I was just stuck on the puzzle

I think that this song is about that one girl everyone wants so badly but cant have and she doesn't even notice you.
