Pulp - We Love Life

Pulp : We Love Life

You have to wonder if Jarvis Cocker wakes up in the morning and wishes that Britpop had never happened. It might have given his band the success they'd spent 15 years chasing, but the subsequent comedown has been long and agonising - and it doesn't seem to be over quite yet.

Pulp - We Love Life Lyrics

Pulp - Weeds Lyrics

We came across the North Sea
With our carriers on our knees
Wound up in some holdin' camp
Somewhere outside Leeds

More Pulp - Weeds Lyrics

Pulp - Sunrise Lyrics

I used to hate the sun
Because it shone on everythin' I'd done
Made me feel that all that I had done
Was overfill the ashtray of my life

More Pulp - Sunrise Lyrics

Pulp - Roadkill Lyrics

The feel of my arm around your waist
The pale blue nightdress that you wore oh oh
Your hair in braids, your sailor top
The things that I don't see anymore no no

More Pulp - Roadkill Lyrics

Pulp - Bad Cover Version Lyrics

The word's on the streets we've found someone new
If he looks nothin' like me I'm so happy for you
I heard an old girlfriend has turned to the Church
She's tryin' to replace me but it'll never work

More Pulp - Bad Cover Version Lyrics

Pulp - Bob Lind Lyrics

When you think you're treading water
But you're just learning how to drown
And a song comes on the radio
Telling you that the only way is down

More Pulp - Bob Lind Lyrics

Pulp - The Birds In Your Garden Lyrics

It's six o'clock
The birds are singing
I'm wide awake
Whilst you're still fast asleep

More Pulp - The Birds In Your Garden Lyrics

Pulp - I Love Life Lyrics

Here, comes your bedtime story
Mum and Dad have sentenced you to life
Don't think twice
It's the only reason I'm alive

Pulp - Wickerman Lyrics

Just behind the station
Before you reach the traffic island
A river runs through a concrete channel
I took you there once

More Pulp - Wickerman Lyrics

Pulp - The Trees Lyrics

I took an air-rifle, shot a Magpie to the ground
And it died without a sound
Your skin so pale against the fallen Autumn leaves
And no-one saw us but the trees

More Pulp - The Trees Lyrics

Pulp - The Night That Minnie Timperley Died Lyrics

'There's a light that shines on everythin' and everyone
And it shines so bright, brighter even than the sun'
That's what Minnie thinks as she walks to meet her brother
Who is nearly two years older, on a Saturday night

More Pulp - The Night That Minnie Timperley Died Lyrics

Pulp - Weeds Ii Lyrics

This is the true story of the weeds, the origin of the species
A story of cultivation, exploitation, civilization
Found flowering on wasteland unnoticed, unofficial, accidental
A cutting was taken but weeds do not thrive under hothouse
