Lyrics
You used to get

it in your fishnets

Now you only get

it in your nightdress

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 pastel, that Bloody

Mary’s lacking her 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

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 gone a 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 just a minute to be gentle

Was it a Mecca dobber

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

As daft as they seem my love

when you dream them up

oh Sloane where did you go

Where did you go

Where did you go, oh, oh

Falling about

You took a left off last laugh lane

Just sounding it out

Know you’re not

coming back again

Just 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 now you only

get it in your nightdress

Discarded all the naughty

nights for niceness

Landed in a very common crisis

Everything’s in order

in a black hole, is everything

as pretty as a pastel

That Bloody Mary’s

lacking her Tabasco

Remember when you

used to be a rascal
