Pulp - The Fear lyrics
[Pulp - The Fear lyrics]
This is our "Music from A Bachelor's Den"
The sound of loneliness turned up to ten
A horror soundtrack from a stagnant water-bed
And it sounds just like this
This is the sound of someone losing the plot
Making out that they're okay when they're not
You're gonna like it, but not a lot
And the chorus goes like this
Oh baby, here comes the fear again
The end is near again, oh
A monkey's built a house on your back
You can't get anyone to come in the sack
And here comes another panic attack
Oh, here we go again
So now you know the words to my song
Pretty soon you'll all be singing along
When you're sad, when you're lonely
And it all turns out wrong
When you've got the fear
And when you're no longer searching
For beauty or love
Just some kind of life with
The edges taken off
When you can't even define what it
Is that you are frightened of
This song will be here
Oh baby, here comes the fear again
The end is near again, oh
If you ever get that chimp off your back
If you ever find the thing that you lack
Oh, but you know you're only having a laugh
Oh, here we go again until the end
Until the end
The sound of loneliness turned up to ten
A horror soundtrack from a stagnant water-bed
And it sounds just like this
This is the sound of someone losing the plot
Making out that they're okay when they're not
You're gonna like it, but not a lot
And the chorus goes like this
Oh baby, here comes the fear again
The end is near again, oh
A monkey's built a house on your back
You can't get anyone to come in the sack
And here comes another panic attack
Oh, here we go again
So now you know the words to my song
Pretty soon you'll all be singing along
When you're sad, when you're lonely
And it all turns out wrong
When you've got the fear
And when you're no longer searching
For beauty or love
Just some kind of life with
The edges taken off
When you can't even define what it
Is that you are frightened of
This song will be here
Oh baby, here comes the fear again
The end is near again, oh
If you ever get that chimp off your back
If you ever find the thing that you lack
Oh, but you know you're only having a laugh
Oh, here we go again until the end
Until the end
