Chemical World Lyrics

The song Chemical World is performed by Blur in the album named Modern Life Is Rubbish in the year 1993 .



The pay-me girl has had enough of the bleeps
So she takes the bus into the country
Although she got herself rosy cheeks
She didn't leave enough money to pay the rent

The landlord says that she's out in a week
What a shame she was just getting comfy
Now she's eating chocolate to induce sleep
And in a chemical world it's very, very, very cheap

And I don't know about you
But they're putting the holes in, yes, yes
It's been a hell of a do
They've been putting the holes in, yes, yes

Peeping Thomas has a very nice view
Across the street at the exhibitionist
These townies they never speak to you
Just stick together so they never get lonely

Feeling lead, feeling quite light-headed
Had to sit down and have some sugary tea
In a chemical world, in a chemical world
It's very, very, very cheap

And I don't know about you
But they're putting the holes in, yes, yes
But it's been a hell of a do
Putting the holes in, yes, yes, yes

I don't know about you
But they're putting the holes in, yes, yes
It's been a hell of a do
Putting the holes in, yes, yes

And now she's found about you
Putting the holes in, yes, yes
Well I don't know about you
Putting the holes in, yes, yes

Until you can see right through
Until you can see right through
Until you can see right through
