[Neneh Cherry]
Here in the night, love takes control
Making me high, making me whole

[Jarvis Cocker and Neneh Cherry]
Here in the night, love takes control
Making me high, making me whole

I don't know
Oh, no, no, no
No, I don't know
No, no, no
No, I don't know

[Jarvis Cocker]
When I close my eyes I can see
You lowering yourself to my level
I don't know where you got those clothes
But you can take them off if it makes you feel better

[Jarvis Cocker and Neneh Cherry]
Don't stop it now
Now is so right
Now as the day slips away
And we slide into night

I don't know
Oh, no, no, no
No, I don't know
No, no, no
No, I don't know

[Jarvis Cocker]
I open my eyes and you're there
Even better in the flesh, it would seem
I'm so ready and willing and able it's untrue
To act out this love scene
And make my dreams come true, yeah

And how many others have touched themselves
Whilst looking at pictures of you?
How many others could handle it if all their dreams came true?
I don't expect you to answer straight away
Maybe you're just having an off day
But I need to believe in you
Yes, I do, yes, I do

[Jarvis Cocker and Neneh Cherry]
Here in my heart
Here in my head
Live all your dreams for tonight
Here in your bed

I don't know
Oh, no, no, no
No, I don't know
No, no, no
No, I don't know

[Jarvis Cocker]
So roll the soundtrack and dim the lights
'Cos I'm not going home tonight
This love scene has begun
So let's get it on

Lets make this the greatest love scene
From a play no one's thought up yet
I know you're feeling the same as me
Although what you gonna do about it?
Now here's an exclusive
I've wanted you for years I only needed the balls to admit it
When the unbelievable object meets the unstoppable force
There's nothing you can do about it
No

I will light your cigarette
With a star that has fallen from the sky
Breath in, breath out, I love the way you move
Don't let anyone tell you any different tonight
You are beauty, you are class, you showed it all
But you still kept a little piece back just for me
A little piece back just for me, just for me (just for me)

I don't know how you do it
But I love the way you do it
When your doing it to me

[Jarvis Cocker and Neneh Cherry]
(Na-na-na-na, na-na, na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na, na-na, na, na-na-na) And if this is a dream
Then I'm gonna sleep for the rest of my life

[Jarvis Cocker]
For the rest of my life
For the rest of my life
For the rest of my life

Pulp

Pulp are most widely recognised as one of the pioneering acts of the 1990s Britpop movement. Formed in Sheffield in 1978, their lineup in their heyday consisted of Jarvis Cocker, Candida Doyle, Mark Webber, Steve Mackey and Nick Banks.

Originally named “Arabicus Pulp” (Cocker and bandmate Peter Dalton had been inspired by the film Pulp, as well as a segment in the Financial Times about Arabicas coffee beans), they soon dropped the “Arabicus” and released their first album, It, under the name “Pulp”. With this album, and its follow-ups, Freaks and Separations, Pulp struggled to find any success, drifting between different sounds and finding it difficult to settle, and the group subsequently left indie label Fire and signed to Island Records, whose attention the band had caught with the single, “O.U”., which was named as one of Melody Maker’s singles of the week alongside Suede’s “The Drowners”.

Now signed to a relatively major label, Pulp released His ‘n’ Hers, an album that gained them significant attention for fitting in with the current Britpop trend. This success was launched into stratospheric levels with their next record, Different Class and singles including “Common People” and “Disco 2000”, earning them a place in Britpop’s “Big Four” alongside Blur, Oasis and Suede.
