Spillage can sometimes cause the membrane under the keys to do this.

I hope it aint coke tho because this eats away the circuit tracks on the membrane unless its cleaned. Has anything been spilled on it?

Sounds like an iffy keyboard, that's happened to me before.

Confirm by using a substitute keyboard, if that good, old one bad.

A new keyboard costs between a fiver and fifty quid.

I shall refrain from comments about Coke rotting membranes.
