Mad For Sadness

It was the biggest ever cock you'd ever seen, but you've no idea where that cock has been.
You said you were careful - you never were with me.
I heard you did it four times and jonnies come in packs of three.

She was the best shag i'd ever had.
That doesn't mean i'm saying, bedwise, you were bad.
I think you were working, we got a hotel.
We didn't have anything but i thought i might as well.

I never told the rest.
I was drunk and i told you i was thinking about a test.
You know i just said it for effect.
Then you laughed and said i'd fuck anything in a skirt once i'm erect.

And she's a famous harlot in this town.
I know enough to, but still i couldn't turn her down.
He said i'm an arsehole, what was i thinking?
It's far too easy to blame it on the drinking.

We're sitting fruity alchopops with pink glasses with ice and watching the girls of summer
With there bare legs and trains and there white strap link through yesterdays top beneath today's cologne
Across there peeling shoulders on there way to the bar

Later i put my tape in the bath in attempt to shave, well almost cut and ending up slashing my cheek and nickin' my lip
And spraying on some poof juice and go to the park with my economy cider

I don't think i'll need a jacket

It'll be bright when the carry outs are finished
And we head to the pub to get everyone else
Leaving our empties kicked behind a bush
We'll get 'em in there and casually saunter into the bogs and swallow
And get taxi's down to a club
The micelet and magpie through the window on the way
In the hope they'll get a shag

But i'll wake up clamouring a girl i know fully clothed on someone's couch i've barely slept for two hours
All sweaty and thoughtful and needing a fix
And then you'll wake up
And the first thing we'll do is to make plans to get pissed
So we'll sit in a pub and watch the girls of summer.

I wish it was someone elses blood on the jonnie.
It's in my mouth and under my nails.
I wish i'd woken up in someone elses bed.
Wish i was the wind in someone elses sails.

I've no-one in particular in mind right now.
It was inevitable we'd end up in the sack.
I should have known you'd want to try again.
But i'm looking forward now
I'm not stepping back.

My last lover's playing with a new man now.
It's only three weeks we've been apart.
They sat together and he sent her flowers.
Well he can fucking keep that fickle disco tart.

'cause i've had it up to here with little girls.
She looked ugly today day, smoking her fag.
Just like a schoolgirl trying to look grown-up.
Now i'm looking for a woman but i'll settle for a shag.

How am i supposed to walk you home when you're at least fifty feet ahead?
Cause you walked off in a huff and i'm that pissed i can't even remember what it was i said.

And i don't doubt you wouldn't touch him now, but let's face it, you always use to go for that kind.
And if you ever really wanted two men at once, all i'm saying is i better be one of the guys you've got in mind.

Here we go same time, same place.
I don't like the way you kiss his face.
It's not that there's no trust as such.
I'd love to make up but i've had to much.

Now you know fine well i'm staying, i've only ever carried out that threat once before.
And even then i coudn't get far and you're mum came and called me back before i'd even made it to the door.

Here we go same time, same place.
My embarassment versus your damp face.
We could down here or we could talk in bed.
But i'm afraid that's all, as i've already said.

You just have to be sure you're doing the right thing.
I mean it's very easy to forget - she's just sitting there in the pub with her new friends and her new life and her new hair, and it's been five years but you'd know just to look at her.

I wasn't even sure it were her at first, i was ready to walk away but she smiled and called me over and we said hello for a bit. when we back to our tables we were trying not to look over at eac
Er and told our firneds to stop staring. i didn't see her for the rest of the night, but by closing time the beer's kicked in so i go up and speak to her and we end up talking about our new home
R new jobs and our new birds.

She says she's been going out with him now for about two and a half years, but they don't live together so he'd never find out. and you think about chasing her about school when you were wee and
G in your bed and listening to love songs and pretending they were about you. and the first time you asked her out she said no but one night you went to a wedding and when you came back to the p
E's changed her mind and you went out. you remember the way she swung her arms when she held your hand but you can't remember how she kissed and now you've got the chance to find out.

But you have to remember there's this other kiss. she's at home, wondering where you are and what you're doing. and you work hard on this kiss and you know it inside out, it's as much yours as i
Hers,and it took a long time to get right, it took months of practice and months of embarassment but now you've got it perfected and you've been looking forward to that kiss all week.

You can see her breath in the air between your faces as you stand in the leaves and she just asks you straight out if you want to come and stay at her flat. but you make sure you get separate ta
Nd you go home and there might be a slight regret and you might wonder what you missed but you have to remember the kiss you worked so hard on - and you'll know you've done the right thing.
