Bloggens læsere vil vide, at jeg har en svaghed for den britiske sangfugl Lily Allen, der ikke alene er en fryd for øjet, der ser, men også synger fortræffeligt og hæver intelligensniveauet i poptekstland betragteligt. Og selvfølgelig har Jools for længst opdaget Lily og taget hende med i sit aftenshow. Her seneste med sangen “Not Fair” om pigen, der finder den Eneste Ene og så viser det sig, at han ikke dur til noget i sengen. Den poptekst var ikke gået i vor moders tid….
Oh he treats me with respect
He says he loves me all the time
He calls me 15 times a day
He likes to make sure that I’m fine
You know I’ve never met a man who’s made me feel quite so secure
He’s not like all them other boys
They’re all so dumb and immature
There’s just one thing that’s getting in the way
When we go up to bed you’re just no good
Its such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and its apparent it’s all over
It’s not fair
And I think you’re really mean
I think you’re really mean
I think you’re really mean
Oh you’re supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream
Oh it’s not fair
And it’s really not ok
It’s really not ok
It’s really not ok
Oh you’re supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take
Oh I lie here in the wet patch
In the middle of the bed
I’m feeling pretty damn hard done by
I spent ages giving head
Then I remember all the nice things that you ever said to me
Maybe I’m just overreacting maybe you’re the one for me
There’s just one thing that’s getting in the way
When we go up to bed you’re just no good
It’s such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and it’s apparent it’s all over
It’s not fair
And I think you’re really mean
I think you’re really mean
I think you’re really mean
Oh you’re supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream
Oh it’s not fair
And it’s really not ok
It’s really not ok
It’s really not ok
Oh you’re supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take
@AagePK: Sandie Shaw er måske ikke nogen dårlig sammenligning. Hun skilte sig også lidt ud med bare fødder og sådan. Dengang.
Lily Allen virker pÃ¥ mig som en transmogryff’et Sandie Shaw med ideer fra Magical Mystery Tour. Kort sagt: en ungdomskur.
