Lyrics

What she said:
How come someone hasn’t noticed
that I’m dead
and decided to bury me God knows, I’m ready
What she said was
but then, all the rejection she’s had
to pretend to be happy
could only be idiocy
What she said was not for the job or lover that she never had
What she read
all heady books
she’d sit and prophesise
(it took a tattoed boy from Birkenhead
to really really open her eyes)
What she read
all heady books
she’d sit and prophesise
(it took a tattoed boy from Birkenhead
to really really open her eyes)
What she said:
I smoke 'cos I’m hoping for an early death
AND I NEED TO CLING TO SOMETHING
What she said:
I smoke 'cos I’m hoping for an early death
AND I NEED TO CLING TO SOMETHING!
