Underwear


N.B. Please do not read the lyrics whilst listening to the recordings


Why don't you shut the door
And close the curtains
'Cos you're not going anywhere.
He's coming up the stairs
And in a moment
He'll want to see your underwear

I couldn't stop it now.
There's no way to get out.
He's standing far too near,
How the hell did you get here?
Semi-naked in somebody elses room.
I'd give my whole life to see it
Just you standing there
Only in your underwear.

If fashion is your trade
Then when you're naked
I guess you must be unemployed yeah.
But once it gets underway
There's no escaping
The fact that you're a girl and he's a boy

I couldn't stop it now.
There's no way to get out.
He's standing far too near.
How the hell did you get here?
Semi-naked in somebody elses room
I'd give my whole life to see it.
Just you standing there
Only in your underwear.

If you could close your eyes
And just remember
that this is what you wanted last night.
So why is it so hard
For you to touch him?
For you to give yourself to him
Jesus!

I couldn't stop it now.
There's no way to get out.
He's standing far too near.
How the hell did you get here?
Semi-naked in somebody elses room
I'd give my whole life to see it.
Just you standing there
Only in your underwear.
C'mon come on now!

Oh yeah, I want to see you.
Wanna see you standing in your underwear.
