Text: Kate Nash. My Best Friend Is You. Mansion Song.
I fancy the hip rock 'n' roll scenester
I wanna be fucked and then rolled over
'Cause I'm an independent woman of the 21st century
No time for knits, I want sex and debauchery
I read Glamour and the Guardian
I like flowers and I'm hardy and I take cocaine
I don't give a fuck about her, I want your name
I can get fucked like the best of men
Like the best of men, like the worst of pain
Inflicted on another young girl again
Impressed by another Guitar Hero
He's a top score and you're a zero
You're out of your league
There ain't no rubber on the tracks, it's gravel
You fall hard, cut quick and it's an STD, a cut knee
You're a side of stage grasp, a laugh
An after show party in a bath
Fucked and expected to be fucked
A gasp from an uninformed intruder
The crowd go wild and things get ruder
They're already out of hand
And there's no one here to take your hand
It's a cold shower and a scramble for a dirty pair of knickers
Don't get yours mixed up with hers
Now get out of bed, get out of bed, get out, get out, get, get out of bed
Get up, get down and get undressed
'Cause that's what you do best
Strip, strip, strip and shag, fuck, get fucked and drag
And be impressed by the better sex
Take a piece of raw vegetable and hold it to your breast
And say that you stood for nothing
You were just a hole that lacked passion
Another undignified product of society
That girl should have been a mansion
I don't have to be your baby
I don't have to be your baby
I don't have to be your baby
I don't have to be your baby
We can make up
We can make up
We can make up
You can get some
You can get some
This is not life
I am a midget, I am a midget
I won't take none of your shit
I am a midget, I am a midget
I won't take none of your shit
I am a midget, I am a midget
I won't take none of your shit
I am a midget, I am a midget
I won't take none of your shit
You can try and have your way
But I have far too much to say
And you will be asleep before I've taken off my shirt
You can try and have your way
But I have far too much to say
And you will be asleep before I've taken off my shirt
I'll be a lady
And I'll be a lady
And I will never let you
I wanna be fucked and then rolled over
'Cause I'm an independent woman of the 21st century
No time for knits, I want sex and debauchery
I read Glamour and the Guardian
I like flowers and I'm hardy and I take cocaine
I don't give a fuck about her, I want your name
