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 weren't as daft as they seem Aren't 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 'til I'm 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 Aren't 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, oh? You're falling about You took a left off Last Laugh Lane Just sounding it out But you're not coming back again You're 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 (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 (you were just sounding it out) Is anything as pretty in the past, though? That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco (you're not coming back again) Remember when you used to be a rascal, oh?
