Pulp - Tunnel Lyrics
Tunnel the tenth of july, 1985Dont ask stupid questionsI got boredI had nothing to do I was boredI had, I had not[? ]Fifteen weeks since the light has goneFifteen weeks with the same shirt onA thousand bodies stink and sweat and somebodys trying to roll a cigaretteClean misterClean misterClean missed herClean missed her[? ]RelaxClean misterFifteen weeks with the same shirt onClean misterClean misterClean missed herClean missed herJust relax and enjoy itIts nothing reallyLets get you out of those wet clothesCmon, just lift yourself up, get these awful trousers offYoull feel so much better afterwardsJust close your eyes and let it ooze all over youTrickling down your back, warm and stickyIsnt that nice?No, dont speak just let yourself go and youll sinkLet yourself go sinking down, deeper and deeper and deeperAt three oclock that morning I awoke in an unfamiliar room in my hands like sodden paperIt was a thick, glutinous, pale green liquidThe sunlight through net curtainsGoing six hundred miles an hour into brilliant white lightTheres a brass band playing somewhere[? ]Roll over on to your back and wait for the talculmBut whats that smell?Pull back the light, crisp, linen sheets and find that sweat they were only two hoursBeforeThe bedroom tips sidewaysNonononononono!Let me out!Let me out! ...Ive got to get out of that stinking shit-hole[? ]I would lie there and see green fields and see the sky blue, the sky blue above meAnd be clean againI know Ill never, ever be clean againNever be clean again.
