from I love my friends (1998) by Stephen DUFFY
Featured on the "I love my friends" lp
I was born in Birmingham
But soon I would escape
With education incomplete and two songs on a tape
When my girlfriend was expelled we took the London coach
Her sister gave her daffodils, her mother an old brooch
And she smiled and she smiled and she smiled
She was so beautiful,
17
We didn’t have much money then
No Hi Fi or TV
So we made love, I’d sing her songs and she would read to me
But we were young, I didn’t know what love was all about
And when I slept with her best friend, of course she threw me out
And we cried and we cried and we cried
She was so beautiful,
17
I was looking for a deal, looking for a hit
The affectations of success, the airs that go with it
While she was looking for a man who didn’t need a maid
She modelled for an agency who made sure she got paid
When she smiled and she smiled and she smiled
She was so beautiful,
17
I was an empty headed libertine…
