Lyrics

You'd better watch what you're wearing
if you want him to come round and see you tonight
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh
But he doesn't care what it looks like
just as long as it's pink and it's tight
It's what he likes
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh

Ooh, so what should you do?
Should you stop being you?
Just to be how he wants you?
Ooh, go and visit your mum
And tell me that you'll come
and meet me in the afternoon
Ooh, he's got your heart
You've got his soul
You might as well know

So what?
I know you're never going to be with me
but do you understand now that maybe
you got it right first time?
I realise that you'll never leave him
but every now and then in the evening
you could get it right first time
I know you think I've got to be joking
but if you touch him again then I'm going
Oh, you got it right first time
Get it right first time

And now you've done it once
now he wants you to wear your pink glove all the time
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh
Ooh, so what should you do?
Should you stop being you?
Just to be how he wants you?
Ooh, go and visit your mum
And tell me that you'll come
and meet me in the afternoon
Ooh, he's got your heart
You've got his soul
You might as well know

So what?
I know you're never going to be with me
but do you understand now that maybe
you got it right first time?
I realise that you'll never leave him
but every now and then in the evening
you could get it right first time
I know you think I've got to be joking
but if you touch him again then I'm going
Oh, you got it right first time
Get it right first time

Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Oh you'll always be together
'cos he gets you up in leather
And you know what to wear at the end of the day
and I'd laugh if I saw, but I'm out of the way
Yeah it's too long ago, shouldn't care anymore
but I wanted to know; is it as good as before?
Yeah it's hard to believe that you'd go for that stuff
all those baby-doll nighties, synthetic fluff
Oh, it looks pretty good
Yeah, it fits you okay, yeah
Wear your pink glove babe
You put it on the wrong way!

So
I know you're never going to be with me
but do you understand now that maybe
you got it right first time?
I realise that you'll never leave him
but every now and then in the evening
you could get it right first time
I know you think I've got to be joking
and if you touch him again then I'm going
Oh, you got it right first time, yeah
Oh, I know that you'll never leave him
Oh, what do you see in him?
You got it right first time
Get it right first time

Alternative versions

Notes

The Peel Session version has an additional couplet, missing from the album version. After "Oh you'll always be together, 'cos he gets you up in leather" comes "and he knows your friend called Heather, but he never kissed her, never."
