Well, she said jealousy is something that distracts you
I said it's hard to focus with your fingers in his belt loops
Then there was that dream about you naked in the bathroom
Telephone just rang, I heard you say I'll call you back soon
He's been waiting in the ally for an hour
She's been powdering her nose in the shower
I've been trying to figure out where it went sour
But I think the ringing in my ears is getting louder
Hold out your hand and take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Alright
She's like a devil in a dark shade of lipstick
An unassuming sort of x-rated misfit
Her bottle's shook up, all you gotta do is twist it
Before you get a chance you'll already have missed it
He's got his arm around her looking like an actress
Agenda-driven heathen posing like a baptist
Subtle proposition, will you fit him in your track-list
Maybe you'll just get right down to wearing out the mattress
Take what you can
And take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Alright
Take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Alright
Take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Just so we're straight
And you don't get the wrong impression
Don't need a silly little overdue confession
Just remember when you're over at his house undressing
He's just another sucker who's about to learn a lesson
I said it's hard to focus with your fingers in his belt loops
Then there was that dream about you naked in the bathroom
Telephone just rang, I heard you say I'll call you back soon
He's been waiting in the ally for an hour
She's been powdering her nose in the shower
I've been trying to figure out where it went sour
But I think the ringing in my ears is getting louder
Hold out your hand and take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Alright
She's like a devil in a dark shade of lipstick
An unassuming sort of x-rated misfit
Her bottle's shook up, all you gotta do is twist it
Before you get a chance you'll already have missed it
He's got his arm around her looking like an actress
Agenda-driven heathen posing like a baptist
Subtle proposition, will you fit him in your track-list
Maybe you'll just get right down to wearing out the mattress
Take what you can
And take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Alright
Take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Alright
Take it easy
I already know what's been going on
I knew it all along
So just take it easy
You're acting surprised and I just roll my eyes
It's gonna be alright
Just so we're straight
And you don't get the wrong impression
Don't need a silly little overdue confession
Just remember when you're over at his house undressing
He's just another sucker who's about to learn a lesson

0Song MeaningThis song is simply about a cheating whore that this guy has been dating for a while. He doesnt know when their relationship went crappy or why she just suddenly started cheating on him. She just kind of did and he has been able to tell from the start. She tries to hide that her and the guy are screwing around but its so obvious its pathetic, so the singer could give a crap.meagroupieon November 16, 2010 Link

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation.
Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.

Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
