lyrics

He was late to the club
All guns
Studs up
Ill judged
Threw out
Threw up
In a doorway
Painted the pavement in an artful arrangement
Of tasteless Chinese takeaway
And everything was hazy now
Yes, so very hazy
He explains this to the ladies
And gentlemen of the jury
Before gingerly
Continuing his story

A pretty peacock primping and preening
Puts on her makeup ready for an evening out
On the town

She was a sitter
A pea roller
Anyone who was there could have told you that
And he swears she looked older
Stresses again to the ladies and gentlemen of the jury
Surely they agree she looks at least 18?
Anyway, she played hard to get
Tried giving him the cold shoulder
But the power of persistence paid off in the end
Eventually
He broke through
Her defence

She pirouettes light as a feather
She was happy that Greg had left with Heather
But now she was on her own
No charge left on her phone
But luckily a bloke she met outside
Offered her a lift home
Bra strap snapped
Backline breached
He made the sweetest of contact
A real peach
Top corner

That girl was someone’s daughter till you warned her not to scream
That girl was someone’s best friend till you forced apart her knees
Now she’s nothing, no one, frozen, please
Wake up, wake up, this isn’t a dream

She screamed
"Someone help me"

Due to a lack of physical evidence everything rested on her testimony
Her word against his
“It hurt,” she said, exhausted
The only words she had left
“It hurt,” she said

And then the attorney for the defence
Asked the question
Everyone was thinking
“Why did you get into the car with him?”
She hung her head
In shame
She was starting to think
That she was the one to blame
