Fluorescent Adolescent

[Verse 1]
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?

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 till 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?


[Chorus]
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, not as daft as they seem
My love, when you dream them up

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, Flo, where did you go?
Where did you go? Where did you go?

[Bridge]
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

[Outro]
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...)
