Pretty Keen On Centrefolds Lyrics

I look up oh-so-high
I take a swing at a fly
And say daddy
Why was I born
He said shut your mouth

So I creep into a gaf
And people shucking and jiving and spinning around
They're listening to cassettes, man

And I'm running around the house again naked
And I'm out chasing tail again
When were they born?

I'm pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that
I'm pretty keen on tubular bells
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that
I'm peachy keen and I'm terribly kind
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that

I go out with this girl
And people keep creeping, asking questions, messing around
When was she born?

I take her to a show
And the crowd are pretty vacant as their egos are rushing along
Do we get to go backstage now?
And I hear they're running around the dressing rooms again naked
I bet they're out chasing tail again
When was I born?

I'm pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me like that
I'm pretty keen on tubular bells
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that
I'm peachy keen and I'm terribly kind
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that
I'm pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me like that

I look up oh-so-high
I take a swing at a fly
And say daddy 
Why was I born
He said shut your mouth

So I creep into a gaf
And people shucking and jiving and spinning around
They're listening to cassettes, man

And I'm running around the house again naked
And I'm out chasing tail again
When were they born?

I go out with this girl
And people keep creeping, asking questions, messing around
When was she born?

I take her to a show 
And the crowd are pretty vacant as their egos are rushing along
Do we get to go backstage now?
And I hear they're running around the dressing rooms again naked
I bet they're out chasing tail again
When was I born?

I'm pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me like that
I'm pretty keen on tubular bells
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that
I'm peachy keen and I'm terribly kind
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me for that
I'm pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's 
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's 
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's 
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me
Pretty keen on centrefolds
But no one's gonna love me, no one's gonna love me like that

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
