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

Why don't you shut the door,
And close the curtains,
Cos you're not going anywhere.
He's coming up the stairs,
And in a moment he'll want to see your underwear.
You couldn't stop it now.
There's no way to get out.
He's standing far too near.
How the hell did you get here.
Semi-naked in somebody else's room.
I'd give my whole life to see it.
Just you,
Stood there,
Only in your underwear.

If fashion is your trade,
Then when you're naked,
I guess you must be unemployed yeah.
Cos once it's underway,
There's no escaping,
The fact that you're a girl and he's a boy.

You couldn't stop it now.
There's no way to get out.
He's standing far too near.
How the hell did you get here.
Semi-naked in somebody else's room.
I'd give my whole life to see it.
Just you,
Stood there,
Only in your underwear.

If you close your eyes and just remember,
That this is what you wanted last night.
So why is it so hard for you to touch him.
For you to go and give yourself to him?

I couldn't stop it now.
There's no way to get out.
He's standing far too near.
How the hell did you get here,
Semi-naked in somebody else's room.
I'd give my whole life to see it.
Just you,
Stood there,
Only in your underwear.

Do, do do do do. Do, do. Do, do. Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do. Do, do.
Oh yeh,
I want to see you.
Want to see you only in your underwear
