disco 2000
Well we where born within a hour of each other
Our mothers said we could sister and brother
Your name was Deborah
Deborah
It never suited you
Oh and they said that when we grew up
We’d get married and never split up
We never did it although I often thought of it
Oh Deborah, do you
Recall your house was very small
With wood chip on the door
When I came round to call
You never noticed me at all
And 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 and lonely
Thursday years ago
You where the first girl at school to get breasts
Martyn said that you where the best
The boys all loved you but I was a mess
I had to watch them try and get you undressed
We where freinds that was as far as it went
I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
Nothing to you
’cause you where so popular
Ah Deborah, do you recall
Your house was very small
With wood chip on the door
When I came round to call
You never noticed me at all
And 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 and lonely Thursday years ago
Oh, what are you doing Sunday baby?
Would you like to come anmd meet me maybe?
You can even bring you baby
Oh.
