I never thought that you would come / your sister said your nerve had gone
You're trying to make it straight right now
but I don't think that you know how
Your sister knows / she wears your clothes / she laughs
at all those things you chose
Your sister knows / takes off your clothes
we use your bed for goodness knows / Ow
I left something where I knew you'd find it
Lift your pillow and you'll see / and he's coming round today
Hey hey / Check out if you're still alive / talking dirt won't change your life
Listen hard and you can hear her saying not to be so afraid
Loosen up and lay right down / watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the way
na na na now now
Your sister knows / she wears your clothes
she laughs at all those things you chose / Your sister knows
takes off your clothes / We use your bed for goodness knows
I can't remember where we met / I can't remember what we said
I can't forget the things we did / when everything just seemed to fit
Your sister knows / takes off your clothes
we use your bed for goodness knows / She's says it's better with two
if you'd just stop being so stuck up / and he's coming round today
Hey hey / Check out if you're still alive / talking dirt won't change your life
Listen hard and you can hear her saying not to be so afraid
Loosen up and lay right down / watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the way
Try it; you might like it / But you might / smudge your lipstick
and he's coming round today / Check out if you're still alive
talking dirt won't change your life
Listen hard and you can hear her saying not to be so afraid
Loosen up and lay right down / watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the way
Loosen up and lay right down / watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the way
It's easy when you stop pretending that you'll never ever see her,
yeah you've seen her going down (and down and down and down and down)

    General CommentThis is my favorite Pulp song for the orchestration... the descending strings, the screaming synth (with the arpegiated piano and sawtooth bass towards the end), the strong (as always) bass line... that the lyrics crack me up (as always) and *seriously* confuse friends when I play it and they catch snippets of the lyrics just adds to its greatness !!
