"Sofa Song" is a song by British rock band The Kooks and is featured on their debut album, Inside In/Inside Out. It was released on 17 October 2005 as the second single from that album, charting at number 28 in the UK Singles Chart (see 2005 in British music).
Luke Pritchard stated in NME that Morrissey (of The Smiths) is one of his heroes and that "Sofa Song" was an attempt to write a song like Morrissey and Johnny Marr used to write during the Smiths' lifetime; a playful melody with a dark underbelly and lyrics.
