Title: Fluorescent Adolescent



You used to get it in your fishnets
Now you only get it in your night dress
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
Landed in a very common crisis
Everythings in order in a black hole
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
That Bloody Marys lacking a Tabasco
Remember when he used to be a rascal?

Oh that boys a slag
The best you ever had
The best you ever had
Is just a memory and those dreams
Not as daft as they seem
Not as daft as they seem
My love when you dream them up...

Flicking through a little book of ** * tips
Remember when the boys were all electric?
Now when she tells shes gonna get it
Im guessing that shed rather just forget i
Clinging to not getting sentimental
Said she wasnt going but she went still
Likes her gentlemen to not be gentle
Was it a Mecca Dobber or a betting pencil?

Oh that boys a slag
The best you ever had
The best you ever had
Is just a memory and those dreams
Werent as daft as they seem
Not as daft as they seem
My love when you dream them up
Oh, where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go? Woah.

Falling about
You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
You just sounded it out
Youre not coming back again.
