Going into business
An agreement of your bombast
You'd love my bed
You took the other instead
But don't you feel low
I was being oblique
And you'd love my bed
You got the other instead
What do you owe me?
The price of your piece of mind
You'd love my bed
You took the other instead
An agreement of your bombast
You'd love my bed
You took the other instead
But don't you feel low
I was being oblique
And you'd love my bed
You got the other instead
The price of your piece of mind
You'd love my bed
You took the other instead

I think gibbler's point on 1992 being a bad year for Blur makes sense, but it's important to recognise another possible meaning. 1992 was the year in which Damon first got with Justine Frischmann, and 1998--the year prior to '13' being released--was the year they broke up.
In a way, the song's a dark recap of Damon's post-Leisure personal life, in particular his relationship with Justine, but also the direction Blur's music was taking at the time.
A brilliant song, with--fittingly--oblique lyrics.
This song is so surreal. The whole album is so atmospheric- it really does create a mood. It's unexplainable.
1992 was hard year for blur. They had already one album and were on tour, but they didn´t really success. This is what the song is about.
the song makes me be in a sad mood for some time.One of the saddest in the 13 album
outstanding song. incredibly produced.
actually this song was called 1992 because that was the year it was written; the original song is from the Modern Life Is Rubbish sessions.
This song makes me cry every time I listen to it :'(
There's only been one performance of this song that we know of so far, damon at the start mentions he wrote the song in 1992 (hence the name) yet didn't release it till the album 13. The song is a metaphor of regret and possibly about being replaced by something, "you'd like my bed, you took the other instead", bed could be an indication of comfort and his comfort not being chosen for whatever reason
Honestly idfk, English literature skills aside it's clearly about justine lol
this song is amazing, its such a trip
it the best song it help me relax <3
