Also Via Billboard "'Once I Started It Was Hard To Put The Lid Back On The Science-Fiction Lexicon. There Was A Film My Friends And I Were Watching Called World On A Wire – It’s A Rainer Werner Fassbinder Film – And That Was Definitely What Pushed Me Over The Edge Into ‘Let’s Go And Write About Another World In Order To Comment On This One.'"

Science fiction (the film and literary genre) uses otherworldly characters, events and situations to comment on our own world. This is what Arctic Monkeys do for much of this record, making this song somewhat of a mission statement for the album. The choruses point out three different things Turner wants to accomplish, and how science fiction does the same.
Alex Turner described this line in an interview with Pitchfork:
"'Science fiction creates these other worlds within which we can explore our own, and I wanted to write something about that idea. So, through reading sci-fi books and watching films like Fassbinder’s World on a Wire, I began to access that sort of vocabulary—then suddenly we’re talking about virtual reality moon casino experiences.'"
Also, via Billboard:
"'Once I started, it was hard to put the lid back on the science-fiction lexicon. There was a film [my friends and I] were watching called World On a Wire – it’s a (Rainer Werner) Fassbinder film – and that was definitely what pushed me over the edge into, ‘Let’s go and write about another world in order to comment on this one.'"
