I Love You

2006-08-21T14:08:00.000-07:00

Rosay attempting to grab love...

I Love You

There used to be a lot of things
That I didn’t know
And although they still exist
I try not to let them show
But I think that now you’ve seen me
For my true colours
I’m sure you’ve recognized
I’m more stupid than the others

But I love you
And I love you
And I will love you
'Till the day I die
There will never be a time
When we have to say good-bye

I've seen you try to laugh at all of my bad jokes
And I’ve cooked you seven meals
Six of them one on which you've choked
But it has taken me a while
To get used to this new feeling
When I woke up with a smile
Oh, I nearly started screaming

That I love you
And I love you
And I will love you
'Till the day I die
There will never be a time
When we have to say good-bye

Because I love you
And I love you
I will love you
'Till the day I die
There will never be a time
When we have to say good-bye
Never be a time when we have to say good-bye
There will never be a time
When we have to say good-bye
Because I love you

School Uniform

Live in at the Leeds Cockpit 18/2/05 in a pre Gwenno era, with Julia

Not sure why this song didn’t make it to the album, but I guess The Pipettes think one sexual ambiguous song (Judy) per album is enough. »:-)

School Uniform

I like a boy in uniform (school uniform)
I like a boy in uniform (school uniform)
I like a boy in uniform (school uniform)
I like a boy in (school uniform)

I walked past him and I gave him a wink
he must think I am sexually impertinent
and will he start lightly, like the elements
but does he really know me?
Do I really know him?

I should have noticed it before
(It wasn’t noticeable before)
my girlfriends said they saw before him
looking at the boys

he likes a boy in uniform (school uniform)
he likes a boy in uniform (school uniform)
he likes a boy in uniform (school uniform)
he likes a boy in (school uniform)

Now I'm so sad, 'cause I love him so
But I think it's better that we go with the blow
And now I found my outlook isn't so narrow
In lessons, I am dreaming ´bout the girls that I know

I like a girl in uniform (school uniform)
I like a girl in uniform (school uniform)
I like a girl in uniform (school uniform)
I like a girl in (school uniform)

But now I know that all there is
There’s plenty more than I can kiss
And when I think about the bliss
Of looking at the girls
Looking at the girls

I like a girl in uniform (school uniform)
I like a boy in uniform (school uniform)
‘Cause not everything is uniform
I wanna kiss everyone in uniform

I like a girl in uniform (school uniform)
I like a boy in uniform (school uniform)
‘Cause not everything is uniform (school uniform)
I wanna kiss everyone in uniform

Because It’s Not Love

2006-08-10T15:50:00.000-07:00

Yet again, live at an HMV store

Because It’s Not Love

I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to see the stars up above in the sky
I just wanna catch your eye

I don't want to be wined and dined
I just want to bump and grind with you here tonight
Because you move so right

And we Dance (Dance)
And we move a little closer
Dance (Dance)
Oh yeah with a triple motion
Dance (Dance)
Yeah we move a little closer
Touch a little tighter
Eyes a little brighter

Because it's not love
But it's still a feeling
No it's not love
But my body's reeling
To move closer next to you

I don't want to hold your hand
I don't want to go walking in the sand every day
So won't you come out to play

And I don't care what people say
I don't care what your friends will think anyhow
'Cause you've got me here right now.

And we Dance (Dance)
And we move a little closer
Dance (Dance)
Oh yeah with a triple motion
Dance (Dance)
Yeah we move a little closer
Touch a little tighter
Eyes a little brighter

Because it's not love
But it's still a feeling
No it's not love
But my body's reeling
To move closer next to you

Judy

I knew a girl and her name was Judy
She used to do things I thought were rude
But I never said anything to her face
'Cuz my friends thought she'd kick my arse all over the place

Used to think she was kinda cool (kind of cool)
Saw her walking all around the school (around the school)
All the older boys would stop and turn their heads
All the older girls wished that she was dead.

Judy, what you gonna do?
When you're older, and no one wants to know ya?
I will look out for you
If you will look out for me
I know I'm not as hard as you
But I think I can see right through you

Now me and Judy we're the best of pals (best of pals)
She took me dancing till the early hours (early hours)
And she showed me things I've never seen
Mum always asked me where I've been
when I'm with

Judy, what you gonna do?
When you're older and no one wants to know ya?
I will look out for you
If you will look out for me
I know I'm not as hard as you
But I think I can see right through you

When you go, home at night
Are you still looking, for a fight?
You know you're mum, is not that mean
But still you want to, rip out her spleen

Judy, what you gonna do?
When you're older and no one wants to know ya?
I will look out for you
If you will look out for me
I know I'm not as hard as you
But I think I can see right through you

What's in your head?

He knows all about the movements of the planets
But he don't know how to move me
He knows about the sonic spectrum damnit
But he don't know if it's groovy

He knows about
A-B-C-1-2-3-X-Y-Z
But he don't know about X-T-C
A-B-C-1-2-D-Even I
Ain't in any of his categories

He’s kind of tall and kind of shy
He's always asking me why
(why?, why? why? why? why?)
He's always got his head in a book
He doesn't care how I look

He cares about
A-B-C-1-2-3-X-Y-Z
But he don't care about X-T-C
A-B-C-1-2-D-Even I
Ain't in any of his categories

He's the kind of guy
who knows just what he knows
He's the kind of guy who
oh-oh-oo-oh-oh-oh-oh

We Are The Pipettes

Gweno, Riot Becky, Rosy
123, let’s go

Take us, take us to your planet
We've got enough we can't stand it
give us your soul and we'll can it

We've taken all we can manage
Just say the word and we'll ban it
Make us a deal and we'll land it and we'll brand it

We are the Pipettes
And we've got no regrets
If you haven't noticed yet
We're the prettiest girls you've ever met

We are the Pipettes
We will drop you in our nets
When you're crying in your bed
You'll hope we haven't finished with you yet

Take us
Take us to your planet
Give us your mind and we'll scan it
Sell us a ship and we'll man it
´Cause we mean it

Throw us the love we've been handed
Lend us some film we’ll be candid
Give us the wheels
And make us a meal
Do you know how I feel?

We are the Pipettes
And we've got no regrets
If you haven't noticed yet
We're the prettiest girls you've ever met
We are the Pipettes
We will drop you in our nets
When you're crying in your beds
You'll hope we haven't finished with you

We are the Pipettes
And we've got no regrets
If you haven't noticed yet
We're the prettiest girls you've ever met
We are the Pipettes
We will drop you in our nets
When you're crying in your beds
You'll hope we haven't finished with you yeah
We haven't finished with you yeah
We haven't finished with you yet

Dirty Mind

2006-08-01T15:01:00.000-07:00

Dirty Mind

He's got a dirty mind, just don't know what you're gonna find

On her way from the school
She saw him, she saw him
In a second she knew
She wanted him, oh she wanted him
There was no trace on him
Of filth, grime or dirt
An overwhelming urge
To smile laugh and flirt

There she goes with a twinkle in her eye
Don't take a genius to understand the reason why

He's got a dirty mind, just don't know what you're gonna find

This girl she thought she was
Living in a dream
It's just that he was
Exceptionally clean
All the boys that she, that she had known before
Avoided hygiene
Around at his house
You could eat off the floor
Which was slightly unnerving

Hygiene boy, oh what am I to do
I feel positively filthy standing next to you

He's got a dirty mind, just don't know what you're gonna find

She got to know his mind intimately
She was surprised to find
Something of an anomaly
You see this perfect boy
Wasn't quite so pristine
He had ideas that would
Make the devil scream

Dirty mind, don't know what you're gonna find
He's got a dirty mind, just don't know what you're gonna find

Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me

2006-07-31T19:20:00.000-07:00

(Well, not really...)

Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me
Your kisses are wasted on me
(Boy)
Can’t you see we're through?
(Boy)
I don't love you don't make me smile
For a while
(Boy)
Get out of my face
(Boy)
I'm gonna get to chase some other guy
Who I might like

And you might cry for some time
(And you don't know it, no you don't know yet)
And you might try to hold my hand again
(but you don't know)

Your kisses are wasted on me

(Boy)
You better hear me clear
(Boy)
I want you out of here
Don't send me wild
You're just a child

And you might cry for some time
(And you don't know it, no you don't know yet)
And you might try to hold my hand again
(and you don't know, no you don't know)
And you might cry for some time
(you still don't know)

Your kisses are wasted on me

Pull Shapes - Video and Lyrics

2006-07-26T15:11:00.000-07:00

Pull Shapes
Dance with me pretty boy tonight
Dance with me and we'll be alright
There's a whole floor before us, just for you and me
So follow my lead and we'll 1-2-3

Pull Shapes
I like to Disco
I like to Rock n' Roll
Well I like to Hip-Hop
We can do it all, just don't let the music stop

Pull Shapes
I lead with my left hand
I stomp with the right foot
Well I just wanna freak out
I just wanna move, I don't care what the song's about

Dance with me pretty boy tonight
Dance with me and we'll be alright
There's a whole floor before us, just for you and me
So follow my lead and we'll 1-2-3

Pull Shapes
Is there a drumbeat?
Pull Shapes
And is the bass in?
Pull Shapes
Well then the rhythm is complete
So get up on the floor
its time for you to move your feet

Dance with me pretty boy tonight
Dance with me and we'll be alright
There's a whole floor before us, just for you and me
So follow my lead and we'll 1-2-3

What do you do when the music stops?

Pull Shapes
Clap your hands if you want some more

Dance with me pretty boy tonight
Dance with me and we'll be alright
There's a whole floor before us, just for you and me
So follow my lead, and we'll 1-2-3

Pull Shapes
Dance with me, pretty boy tonight
Pull Shapes
Dance with me, and we'll be alright
Pull Shapes
There's a whole floor before us, just for you and me
Pull Shapes
So follow my lead, and we'll 1-2-3
