Slits - Ping Pong Affair lyrics

rate me

I knew you were sitting in your room all alone

I knew I was the only girl for you

You have told me so

But somehow it slipped my mind

Whilst walking home

Whilst you were sulking I could have been raped

In Ladbroke Grove

Well you can take your records back

And take your comics too

I'm going to have some fun tonight

Life with or without you

So I spend an evening

Without getting my face cut

And another evening

Without getting run over

Again another evening without falling in love

So I listen to the radio

Smoke a cigarette

Same old thing, yeah I know

Everybody does it

Six months

Have passed, now try become between us

I never missed you, only sometimes

Dreaming on a bus

There is absolutley no doubt in my mind

That you and I have grown apart

For the first time

Seeing you with other girls

Sometimes bothers me

But I don't want to play those games

They're just not interesting

So I spend an evening

Without getting my face cut

And another evening

Without getting run over

Again another evening without falling in love

So I listen to the radio

Smoke a cigarette

Same old thing, yeah I know

Everybody does it

Since yesterday, like I heard your voice behind me

I froze on the spot, did not turn around

In case you'd find me

I think you lied or you can't tell

Tell the truth

You didn't want me, you wanted someone else

Who'd give you proof

But I can't trust the feelings rushing through my head

I'd wait for you to call me nights

And come to me instead

So I spend an evening

Without getting my face cut

And another evening

Without getting run over

Again another evening without falling in love

So listen to the radio

Smoke a cigeratte

Same old thing, yeah you know

Eveybody does it
