Biography

British indie rock/Britpop band founded in 1978 in Sheffield. Sole constant member is [a76828] who formed the band while at school, and led the band through a series of stylistic changes and numerous band members until finding success and a stable lineup by the early 90s. They split in 2002, and reformed in 2011 for a series of reunion concerts before going on hiatus again in 2013. It was announced in 2022 that Pulp was to reunite and play some shows in 2023, as confirmed by Jarvis Cocker at a Q&A for his memoir, "Good Pop, Bad Pop", which was initially teased via a cryptic Instagram video posted by Cocker featuring the lyrics, "What exactly do you do for an encore?", that featured on the song "This Is Hardcore" from the album of the same name.

LYRICS

My sex leaves nothing to the imagination
My sex is shady recreation
My sex is out of its mind
One of a kind and ill-defined
My sex is neither here nor there
Is neither him nor her
It's an out of body experience
My sex don't make no sense

My sex leaves much to be desired
Spoken of in whispers behind closed doors
My sex is an urban myth
A lovers' tiff
Or a lover stiff

I haven't got an agenda
I haven't even got a gender
My sex is hard to explain
You can't melt it down in the rain
You can't melt it down in the rain

It's mine, all mine
Hand-reared, one of a kind
You show me yours and I'll show you mine
But hurry 'cause my sex is running out of time
My loss is your gain
Keep your hands to yourself 'cause it's hard to explain
And in answer to your question
My sex is open to suggestions
My sex is not forever
It's two silences
Two silences stitched together

Love is invisible to the naked eye
When it's raised in the dark of two people's minds
Something you don't find every day
Something that's been hidden away
Teeny tiny, too much too late
Nowhere to put it, it's too oddly shaped

This love is too much to take in
It's two lives in a spin
What a strange love it's been

It's mine all mine
Hand-reared, one of a kind
You show me yours, I'll show you mine
But hurry 'cause my sex is running out of time
My loss is your gain
Keep your hands to yourself 'cause it's hard to explain
And in answer to your question
My sex is open to suggestions
My sex is not forever
It's two silences stitched together

Oh, oh, oh, I'm trying to work myself up
I'm trying to work myself out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Beyond a shadow of a doubt

Oh yeah
