Pulp | Lyrics | Disco 2000

Oh we were born within an one hour of each other
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother
Your name is Deborah, Deborah, it never suited ya

And they said that when we grew up
We'd get married and never split up
Oh we never did it, although I often thought of it

Oh Deborah, do you recall?
And your house was very small
Oh with wood chip on the wall
When I came around to call
You didn't notice me at all

And I said, "Let's all meet up in the year 2000
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown
Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road"
But I never knew that you'd get married
And I would be living down here on my own on
On that damp and lonely Thursday years ago

You were the first girl at school to get breasts
And Martyn said that you were the best
Oh the boys all loved you but I was a mess
I had to watch them trying to get you undressed
We were friends, that was as far as it went
I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
Oh it meant nothing to you, 'cos you were so popular

Deborah do you recall?
And your house was very small
Oh with wood chip on the wall
Oh when I came around to call
You didn't notice me at all

And I said, "Let's all meet up in the year 2000
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown
Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road"
But I never knew that you'd get married
And I would be living down here on my own on
On that damp and lonely Thursday years ago

Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Ah but Deborah do you recall?
And your house was very small
Oh with wood chip on the wall
And when I came around to call
You didn't notice me at all

And I said, "Let's all meet up in the year 2000
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown
Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road"
But I never knew that you'd get married
And I would be living down here on my own on
On that damp and lonely Thursday years ago

Oh what are you doing Sunday baby
Would you like to come and meet me maybe?
You can even bring your baby
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

What are you doing Sunday baby
Would you like to come and meet me maybe?
You can even bring your baby
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
