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

But as daft as they seem


As daft as they seemed


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 tells she's gonna get it


I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it


Clinging to not 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

Not 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?




Falling about

You took a left off Last Laugh Lane


You were just sounding it out

You're not coming back again




Falling about

You took a left off Last Laugh Lane


You were just sounding it out

You're not coming back again




You used to get it in your fishnets

Now you only get it in your night dress

(Falling about)


Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness

Landed in a very common crisis
