Saint Etienne - Amateur lyrics
[Saint Etienne - Amateur lyrics]
Janine, just 19, joined a pyramid scheme
Didn't think it mean
To inflate her estate, left it too late
Broke her dreams
Broke her friends, who said
"Courtesy is dead"
And now a piece of Vambra
Is looking like Turana
She's banking on the fee
She'll get from ITV
Rethink, refrain, don't pull a Jill, Jane
Amateur, amateur, amateur
Kyle, frozen smile, got himself a mobile
Got a house
One wrinkle, couldn't get a signal
Pretty fast put a mast
On the neighboring flats
A little girl called Jill
Will become very ill
But that is years away, so who gives a hey
Rethink, refrain, don't pull a Jill, Jane
Amateur, amateur, amateur
Five-star review who bought a new LP
Had to agree with the critic
Really dug my lyric
Tolerate all the people you hate
When they walk all over you, ah, baby
What you gonna do
Get a Corinthian view wear the pink and blue
Ooh
Rethink, refrain, don't pull a Jill, Jane
Amateur, amateur
Rethink, refrain, don't pull a Jill, Jane
Amateur, amateur
Rethink, refrain, don't pull a Jill, Jane
Amateur, amateur, amateur
