After You Lyrics

On the last night on earth when the horses run free
The scriptures foretell of a party in Hackney
In a dimly lit room crammed with loathing and hate
They're selling their souls and I just can't wait

I shrivel inside at the sight of her beauty
I fall to the floor as she's shaking her booty
The rain makes me shiver, the wind turns me blue
Oh the things we get up to, to get through the night after you

I knew it was wrong, I began to suspect
When she reached over and pressed the eject
I was up to the gunnels against your advice
I felt so ashamed that I did it twice

From disco to disco, from Safeway to Tesco
We're shopping around from the cradle til death row
From Tesco it's down to the 7-11
To chase through the night time, to chase through the night after you
After you

I can't explain why I need to be free
But if you need to be naked that's alright by me
It's the fast track express to the graveyard, I know
So what are you waiting for? Hey ho, let's go

From disco to disco; from Safeway to tesco
We're shopping around from the cradle til death row
Don't stop til the train has pulled into the station
I'll hold the door for you no, I insist, after you
After you
After you
