Lyrics

97 lovers
twisted out of shape
and just one kiss
could set them straight

97 lovers
twisted out of shape
and just one kiss
could set them straight

I know a woman
with a picture of Roger Moore
in a short toweling dressing gown
pinned to her bedroom wall
She married a man
who works on a building site
Now they make love beneath Roger
every friday night

Oh, 97 lovers
twisted out of shape
and just one kiss
could set them straight

97 lovers
rose to meet the sun
and when the day was over there were only 91

Another I know
well she laughs too loud with her friends
playing it safe on the surface
to give her heart time to mend
And then one day without warning
he walks unannounced through the door
and he picks her heart up off the table
and he watches it smash on the floor

Oh, 97 lovers
twisted out of shape
and just one kiss
could set them straight

97 lovers
rose to meet the sun
and when the day was over there were only 91

Sleeve notes

Why 97? It could just have easily been 970 or 9,700. Just take a short walk around town and you soon lose count of the deformities. By the way, what's that growing on your back?

Info

The chords for this song were re-used in OU.
