Pulp - Seconds video free download

This is the song "Seconds" by Pulp on their EP "The Sisters".

She,

she used to live with his brother.

Now she's an unmarried Mother

with another on the way.

He's second rate,

twisted out of shape.

Oh god he looks a state

It costs so much to look so rough.

They go to town,

they like to shop around

and look at all those things.

All those things they never wanted anyway.

She hates his hair,

that stupid coat he wears

but sometimes second best

is the best that you can get.

Oh somebody told me;

the seconds turn to hours

and the hours turn into days

but still it feels like morning.

The first time leaves its trace

and then slides into second place

and still it feels like morning.

At night they try to fly,

hold on tight and close their eyes

and they hit the ground in morning.

In the morning it's raining.

Oh christ you're always complaining,

can't you think of something else?

It's nearly-nu,

a bargain basement made for two

and if you blur your eyes you could be anywhere you want yourself to be.

Oh yeah it's bad,

I know you want to laugh,

so laugh.

But sometimes second best

is all you're gonna get.

Oh yeah, oh somebody told me;

the seconds turn to hours

and the hours turn into days

but still it feels like morning.

The first time leaves its trace

and then slides into second place

and still it feels like morning.

At night they try to fly,

hold on tight and close their eyes

and they hit the ground in morning.

But you're so perfect you don't interest me at all

You're golden boy fell down

Don't you know he hasn't got a personality?

And I know, he said he'd last all night then gave you seconds, yeah

the seconds turn to hours

and the hours turn into days

but still it feels like morning.

The first time leaves its trace

and then slides into second place

and still it feels like morning.

At night they try to fly,

hold on tight and close their eyes

and they hit the ground in morning.

My god they're still alive;

they got it wrong but they still tried

and they made it through to morning.
