"Fluorescent Adolescent"

U used to get it in Ur fishnets
so now U only get it in Ur 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 a Tabasco
Remember when U used to be a rascal?

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

Flicking through a little book of sex tips
Remember when the boys were all electric?
and now when she tell she's gonna get it
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget I
Clinging to not getting sentimental
Said she wasn't going but she went still
Likes her gentlemen to not be gentle
Was it a Mecca Dobber or a betting pencil?

Oh that boy's a slag
The best U ever had
The best U 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 U dream them up
Oh, where did U go?
Where did U go?
Where did U go? Woah.

Falling about
U took a left off Last Laugh Lane
U were just sounding it out
U're not coming back again.
