I need to unload
Under the pressure
Gone middle of the road
Fall into fashion
Fall out again
We stick together
Cause it never ends
I'm a boy and you're a girl
Here comes a high
The only ones in the world
Here comes everything
You and me can work it out
Here it comes
You, me, we'll work it out!

We stick together
Gone middle of the road
Cause that's entertainment
It's the sound of the wheel
It rolls on forever
You know how good it feels
I'm a boy and you're a girl
Here comes a high
The only ones that's in the world
Here comes everything
We're like monkeys out in the space
Here it comes
We are members of the human race
You, me, we'll work it out!

It's about deciding to make 'middle of the road' and non-threatening music in order to get lots of money (ironic, since this album was Blur's most strange and non-middle-of-the-road album they'd released at the time).
"fall out of fashion, fall back again"- sarcastically saying that being bland will never go out of fashion
"i'm a boy and you're a girl"- referencing cliche'd love song lyrics
the song is called .M.iddle .O.f the .R.oad
so its obviously about the concept, as applied to the music industy.
Under the pressure Gone middle of the road
i think these lines represent wat band such as blur 'could' do, or band that 'have' done. not selling out as such, but making thier music available so that it doesnt go in or out of fashion.
however, this song can also be about relationships.
i think its both.
this song is about the music industry. pure and simple.
i disagree. i just think it's about friendship. notice the lines "we stick together cause it never ends." "cause that's entertainment, that's the sound of the wheel that rolls on forever, you know how good it feels."
It's about both those thing, it's about sticking with blur as mates throughout the highs and lows of the music industry. Wish Graham would listen to this...
This song is obviously about Justine Frischmann and Damon. They alwAYS had problems about the fact that they were apart the most of the time, so they had to work it out. Be aware of the line I'm a boy and you're a girl
David Bowie actually has half of the rights to this song. The chorus is almost exaclty identical to his song "Boys Keep Swinging."
It seems to me this song has lots of references to Bowie lyrics but also other songs in general which might have influenced Blur - 'Under The Pressure' / Under Pressure (Bowie & Freddie Mercury), 'Fall Into Fashion' / Fashion (Bowie), as you mentioned all the bits from Boys Keep Swinging, 'Here comes a low' / Low (Name of a Bowie album), 'Cause that's entertainment' / That's Entertainment (The Jam). Probably some more in there
