Fluorescent Adolescent 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

Not as daft as they seem

Not 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 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 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?

You're falling about

You took a left off Last Laugh Lane

Were just sounding it out

But you're not coming back again

You're falling about

You took a left off Last Laugh Lane

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

(Were sounding it out)

Nothing seems as pretty as the past though

That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco

(But you're not coming back again)

Remember when you used to be a rascal?
