People Only Do Stuff To Get Laid

(song lyrics)

I knew this guy he was having an affair with a girl he met at the photocopy machine and when he left his wife to pursue his dream, the girl realised some things - he was just another man who can't control himself, just another joke who can't control himself, this will never work, she said, I can't trust you, and now he doesn't get out of bed, and the neighbours, they all hear him crying in the night, the way a baby does, so I said to him, I know this girl, she's not from round here, really sweet, really open, really bright, she likes to make her own things, like jewellery and stuff, she's going to start her own business once she's settled in, I told her about you and the things you like to do, well, some of it wasn't true, but she said she'd like to meet you, and I don't know why I ever said such a thing apart from knowing what joy a good fuck can bring, and I feel so bad when I see her, because she don't know what she's in for, and I know he's screwing the waitress round the corner at that place they like to eat, and this is basically what this song is about, about a man who is only motivated to get involved in intimate relationships because of the sex they bring, and that is why women are so interchangeable and replaceable to him. The song will be about some other things too, but you'll have to use your imagination a bit, because they don't exist.

tambourine
snare drum
bass drum
