Prez gorite, prez poliata,
Pod zvezdite, nad zhitata

I know her, used to follow everywhere we'd go
and it's so sweet, now she's sleeping with a boy I know
the boy I know, knows a pretty girl in every town
and the way they look, they were made to let each other down

she got her face from the same house where she stole her clothes
on the same street, there's a dance hall where nobody goes
four to the floor, stealing cigarettes of '90s ghosts
and then at Christmas time, 'till we exceed the recommended dose

Prez gorite, prez poliata,
Pod zvezdite, nad zhitata
Shte patuvat prez noshta,
Risuvat prez denia i shte spiat do obed
Viatarat gi bruli na srebaren MZ
I shte piat gorski chai ot zlaten samovar
Litsata im greiat s ognenen zagar.

I know her, used to follow everywhere we'd go
and it's so sweet, now she's sleeping with a boy I know
the boy I know, knows a pretty girl in every town
and the way they look, they were made to let each other down

. . .


I don't want to fight
just want a piece of your life
oh, if you come out to play
I don't want you to say...anything
I didn't feel a thing when you told me that
you didn't feel a thing when I told you that
I didn't feel a thing, another breakfast with you

[repeat]

(spoken)
Did you ever fall in love?
for a quarter of an hour or above (??)

up on the stand, the society meeting
that was the way, was the way that I found you
drunk after work, here in the late night feelings
that was the way, was the way that I found you
sat in the crowd, watching the women's tennis
that was the way, was the way that I found you
saw who you were, picking up from the canvas
that was the way; I was wrapped around you,
met you while you were switching on
and checked your box on the blue coupon
that was how...I...found...

up on the stand, the society meeting
that was the way, was the way that I found you
drunk after work, here in the late night feelings
that was the way; I was wrapped around you
kicked your wheel in the midday sun
and saved your place in the peloton
that was how...I...found...

sat in the crowd, watching the women's tennis
that was the way, was the way that I found you
saw who you were, picking up from the canvas
that was the way; I was wrapped around you
you still don't know what I want
picked up your book in a street kiosk
that was how...I...found...

up on the stand, the society meeting
that was the way, was the way that I found you
late night feelings, trying to set for the winter
to leave you this way, the way I found you
met you while you were switching on
and checked your box on the blue coupon
that was how...I...found...

. . .


ground floor, ladies' clothes, sportswear, stationery
first floor, kitchenware, furnishings, confectionary
second floor, children's toys, back to school, and many more
fourth floor, electronic, fake antiques, and lingerie
I saw your face on a black-and-white screen
I knew your name from the checkout machine
you don't have to spend, you just have to pretend

Ti si zemen rai
A Dunav veselo shumi
Tih bial Dunav se valnuva
Veselo shumi
Eto Simeon pristiga
S negovite voiski

Haide vaksa haide de

Haide vaksa haide de

Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow’s world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow’s world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won't get you along
Hey, playgirl

Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown

Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow’s world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow’s world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won't get you along
Hey, playgirl

Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown

Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl

Foreign coin on a telephone box
A question mark on a calendar
An empty seat on the alpha line
A sorting code, an account number

Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown

. . .


time in hands, with the pilots and the traveling bands
when you're down there, don't feel down and out
you have something you can smile about
Coke or gin, why are you boys frowning, have you lost something
the solution that you have for me
will invalidate my guarantee

sell something to someone you love
not someone that you don't
even though...

six oh four, Belgian teachers and the cosmonauts
when you're down there, don't feel down and out
you have something you can smile about
holding hands, rocket scientists revise their plans
the solution that they have for me
will burn me up on reentry

sell something to someone you love
not someone that you don't
even though...

I can't seem to take you anywhere
we ditched your friends at williamson square
where the rank and file shoot us dirty looks
hail a taxicab, don't want to walk
the nighttime here is a plastic box
gently amplifying in the basement rock
the distant tones from the detainees
friendly girls who pack it full of these

when you're not around, this is our sound

I can't seem to take you anywhere
we ditched your friends at williamson square
where the rank and file shoot us dirty looks
hail a taxicab, don't want to walk
the nighttime here is a plastic box
gently amplifying the basement rock
the distant tones from the detainees
friendly girls who pack it full of these

when you're not around, this is our sound (this is our sound)

when you're not around, this is our sound (this is our sound)

when you're not around
this is our sound
this is not a song
there is nothing wrong
when the light inside
is not as bright

he met her in the fall, he took her to a movie
and when they'd done it all, he took her to a movie
and from the hospital, he took her to a movie
but so did I

and when her heart was sad, he took her to a movie
she's all he's ever had, he took her to a movie
and should their love turn bad, he took her to a movie
but so did I

I think she's been alone, he took her to a movie
when they cut off the phone, he took her to a movie
and when her cover's blown, he took her to a movie
but so did I

there's nothing on TV, he took her to a movie
but she's the one for me, he took her to a movie
we're at number three, he took her to a movie
but so did I

once there was a young girl
but old enough to know girl
went by the name of Ladybird

charmed you with the one hand
and broke you in the next hand
then she'd be gone out of your life

if you've got time (if you've got time)
and you're ever to change her mind (to change her mind)
you'll need more than a glass of wine
she's not that kind of girl

you'll never win (you'll never win)
'cause she leaves when you think you're in (think you're in)
doesn't care if it's her or him
she's not that kind of girl

mornings are the cruelest
no no, no, nothing more or less
just slept with the thought of Ladybird

everywhere you see her
her new possession with her
don't warn them they're not listening to you

if you've got time (if you've got time)
and you're ever to change her mind (to change her mind)
you'll need more than a glass of wine
she's not that kind of girl

you'll never win (you'll never win)
'cause she leaves when you think you're in (think you're in)
doesn't care if it's her or him
she's not that kind of girl

[repeat chorus 2x more]

she caught her flight at 10am
and checked her face at Amsterdam
oh, it's just what it's like
when you're only seen at night
she left her love somewhere at home
and now she's dancing on her own
to the kind of disco sound
that makes her glad he's not around

she's looking at you
so maybe you're looking too
do you want to be her
or don't you?
of course you do
but would she be you?

he doesn't dance as good as she
why don't you save a seat for me
as the sun came and went
from the safety of a jet
he gave her land a one last look
then dropped his head inside the book
that he never gets to read
maybe he'll just get some sleep

she's looking at you
so maybe you're looking too
do you want to be her
or don't you?
of course you do
but would she be you?

. . .


packing her bags, they left the sailor girl
when she returned to find that she could love no one
meeting her way through cheap bar and cafe
expecting to see the same sour faces there, why not

oh yes, they'll do
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out and it might be true
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out, I'll be nice
school's out for me, school's out for you
swallow all our bad advice
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out

packing his bags, they loved the Tesco boy
when he returned to find that he could love no one
he stayed away through salons and musics
there's still a ground in her up (??) to the years, why not

oh yes, they'll do
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out and it might be true
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out, I'll be nice
school's out for me, school's out for you
listen to our bad advice

school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out, please behave
school's out for me, school's out for you
you don't want a english name
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out, I'll be nice
school's out for me, school's out for you
swallow all our bad advice
school's out for me, school's out for you
school's out
