Lyrics

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
 Everything's in order in a black hole
 Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
 That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco
 Remember when you used to be a rascal?
 Oh, the boy's a slag, the best you ever had
 The best you ever had is just a memory
 And those dreams weren't as daft as they seem
 Aren't as daft as they seem, my love
 When you dream them up
 Flicking through a little book of sex tips
 Remember when the boys were all electric?
 Now when she's told she's gonna get it
 I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it
 Clinging 'til I'm getting sentimental
 Said she wasn't going, but she went still
 Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle
 Was it a Mecca Dauber or a betting pencil?
 Oh, the boy's a slag, the best you ever had
 The best you ever had is just a memory
 And those dreams weren't as daft as they seem
 Aren't as daft as they seem, my love
 When you dream them up
 Oh, Flo
 Where did you go?
 Where did you go?
 Where did you go, oh?

 You're falling about
 You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
 Just sounding it out
 But you're not coming back again

 You're falling about
 You took a left off Last Laugh Lane
 You were just sounding it out
 But you're not coming back again
 You used to get it in your fishnets (falling about)
 Now you only get it in your night dress
 Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness (you took a left off Last Laugh Lane)
 Landed in a very common crisis
 Everything's in order in a black hole (you were just sounding it out)
 Is anything as pretty in the past, though?
 That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco (you're not coming back again)
