Penthouse Girl, Basement Boy

Lyrics

Transcribed by Rene Rojas

Stared out of the car into your room
Only
I, I didn't feel you told me the truth
Plenty
Of nights sitting around waiting for you
Maybe
Then should have counted my CDs, see you soon
Baby

Got to go
Got to be on my own

You're not gonna find me today
Downtown baby leave me alone
Cos there's nothing to say
I'm living in the penthouse
Basement boy stay away

Sad, sad all the time, time to move on
You told me
Love, love didn't last and you should have known
Baby

Got to go
Got to be on my own

You're not going to find me today
Downtown baby leave me alone
Cos there's nothing to say
I'm living in the penthouse
Basement boy stay away

La la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la

Stay out of my life
Basement boy stay away
Basement boy stay away

You can't touch me no more
You can't hurt me no more
You can't reach me no more

You're out of my life
Now I'm closing the door
You've turned into a bore
I don't need you no more

You're not gonna find me today
Downtown baby leave me alone
Cos there's nothing to say
I'm living in the penthouse
Basement boy stay away

Smiley says of his pre-release copy:
brilliant track, and another very bitter break-up song... example lyrics: "Got to go, got to be on my own You're not gonna find me, today Down, down, baby, leave me alone 'cos there's nothing to say I'm living in a penthouse, basement boy stay away."
