Some Girls

Some girls are a bit too clever
Sometimes they can get whatever
I’d try to find my way back home if I could
Some boys are a bit too simple
That's why they're always single
I'd try to find my way back home if I could
When my finger’s on the button
But you get no consolation
It’s like chasing tails
Round and round and round and round
When she’s lonely and I’m wasted
Desperation, I can taste it
It’s a cartoon show
Round and round and round and round
Tears fall freely when bad girls cry
It’s far too easy
But I still hear them lie
And those tears fall freely when bad girls cry
It’s too late.
Too late. Too late. Too late. Too late.
Some girls are a bit too sexy
Some nights get a bit too messy
I’d try to find my way back home if I could
But some girls always need attention
And say things that they shouldn’t mention
I’d try to find my way back home if I could
When my finger’s on the button
But you get no consolation
It’s like chasing tails
Round and round and round and round
When she’s lonely and I’m wasted
Desperation, I can taste it
It’s a cartoon show
Round and round and round and round
Tears fall freely when bad girls cry
It’s far too easy
But I still hear them lie
And those tears fall freely when bad girls cry
It’s too late.
Too late. Too late. Too late. Too late.

Some girls are a bit too clever
Sometimes they can get whatever
I’d try to find my way back home if I could

Absolute Beginners

They’re absolute beginners but
there’s not much they wouldn’t do
When you’re 15 and you’re
lonely so you sleep ‘til the afternoon
And there’s two more weeks of August,
there’s a world that they haven’t seen
And now drunken kisses’ nervousness is
what everybody needs
They want love love love
with the minimum fuss
And summer’s almost over
It’s all lust lust lust
at the back of the bus
And they're trying to take things further
They want love love love
with the minimum fuss
And summer's almost over
It's all lust lust lust and the capital
must be getting that much closer
They’re absolute outsiders
but in this town you know their name
And you still can’t trust your neighbours
there are some things that never change
And there’s two more weeks of freedom
they can be anyone they choose
But you’d be amazed how far you’d stray
They don’t have a lot to lose
She wants to be free
He’s hard to please
And so suddenly
It’s time to leave
But you know she’ll have someone by
the end of the week
They want love love love
with the minimum fuss
And summer’s almost over
It’s all lust lust lust
at the back of the bus
And they're trying to take things further
They want love love love
with the minimum fuss
And summer's almost over
It's all lust lust lust and the capital
must be getting that much closer
Getting that much closer to you
Love love love

Mr & Mrs

One or two mistakes
That is all it takes
For the back to break, my darling
It was the final straw
She couldn’t take no more
And he was getting bored
She’s charming
But she was always over-thinking
And he was far too busy drinking
And neither of them lived
Mr & Mrs
It was such a funny business
They drove to Dover hill and then
The witness said they missed her by inches
And now they are no more, my darling...
How can one or two mistakes
Be really all it takes
For the back to break, alarming
Together 20 years
And then they disappeared
Without a single word of warning
But she was always over-thinking
And he was far too busy drinking
And neither of them lived
Mr & Mrs
It was such a funny business
They drove to Dover hill and then
The witness said they missed her by inches
And now they are no more, my darling...
The whispers and the conversation
The rumours flew around the police station
It was a scandalous situation
In the best possible
way, my darling.
