The Slits Lyrics

i am trapped in a flood, but it isn't raining
i have a tendancy to get bored too quickly
recently my dull life seems to have no meaning
i am stuck with someone we're not communicating

i want to buy
have you been affected?
i need consoling
you could be addicted

i need something new
something trivial would do
i want to satisfy this empty feeling

walking down the street looking in the windows
the t.v., the lights, flickering in other peoples windows
imagine myself moving in the kitchens
somehow i don't know it just looks so tempting

i want to buy
have you been affected?
i need consoling
you could be addicted

i need something new
something trivial would do
i want to satisfy this empty feeling

i've got a new improved remedy
two of my lonely fantasies

when i supply myself with something new...

going home, into bed when i've treated myself
i've been quite hard, after a hard days work
i have found a hundred ways to get rid of all my worries
he's not pilliging, stopping me, commenting the crime

i want to buy
have you been affected?
i need consoling
you could be addicted

i need something new
something trivial would do
i want to satisfy this empty feeling

i've got a new improved remedy
two of my lonely fantasies
i've got a new improved remedy
two of my lonely fantasies
