polly jean harvey - just a working girl lyrics
( moonshake )
a sixteen year-old virgin out drinking with his mates.
a layman, with the key to the pearly gates,
signs his fake name in illegible scrawl,
and a right-on type, the most ashamed of all.
just a working girl – schemes and misses appointments
just a working girl – dreams and disappointments.
a fishmonger who hasn’t washed for a week.
a graphic artist who rinses so much he squeaks.
a butcher with knotted muscles and a potted belly.
medical students, alls schoolboy chuckles and petroleum jelly.
the overalls of bricklayers on a sat-rday night.
the suits of glum professionals with midweek blight.
the gl-sses of computer freaks who’ve laid their software down,
and the -rs-s of accountants heaving up and down, up and down.
a sales -ssistant with his petty hand in the till.
the gasman is collecting just one more bill.
a headmaster with a polaroid and a pleated uniform.
the nightw-tchman stops by quickly on his long walk home.
just a working girl – schemes and missed appointments.
just a working girl – dreams and disappointments.
just a working girl – creams and dull apartments.
