[PJ Harvey - Just A Working Girl lyrics]

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 Saturday night
The suit's of glum professionals
With midweek blight

The glasses of computer freaks who've
Laid their software down
And the arses of accountants
Heaving up and down, up and down

A sales assistant 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 nightwatchman 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
