Disco 2000

Pulp · Different Class

Well we were born within an hour of each other.
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother.
Your name is Deborah. Deborah.
It never suited you oh & they said
that when we grew up we'd get married & never split up.
We never did it, altough often I though of it.
Oh Deborah do you recall?
Your house was very small with wood-chip on the wall.
When I came around to call
you didn't notice me at all & I said "Lets all meet up in the year 2000.
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown?
Be there 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road".
I never knew that you'd get married.
I would be living down here on my own,
on that damp & lonely Thursday years ago.
You were the first girl at school to get breasts.
Martyn said that you were the best.
The boys all loved you but I was a mess.
I had to watch them try & get you undressed.
We were friends that was as far as it went.
I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
nothing to you 'cos you were so popular.
Ah Deborah do you recall!?
Your house was very small with wood-chip on the wall.

you didn't notice me at all & I said "Lets all meet up in the year 2000.
