Chords and Lyrics for "Lipgloss" by Pulp
[1st VERSE]
Dm C G
No wonder you're looking thin when all that you live on
C G Dm
is lipgloss and cigarrettes and scraps at the end of the day
C G C G Dm
when he's given the rest to someone with long black hair
C G
all those nights in making such a mess of the bed
C G Dm
oh you never ever wanted to go home he says he wants you so you may as well
C G C G F
hang around for a while call your Dad on the phone Oh
F Fm C
He changed his mind last monday so you've gotta leave by Sunday yeah
Em C
Oh you've lost your lipgloss honey oh yeah
Em F
Now nothing you do can turn him on there's something wrong
Fm
you had it once but now it's gone
[SECOND VERSE]
And you feel such a fool
for laughing at bad jokes
and putting up with all of his friends
and kissing in public
what are they gonna say
when they bump into you again
that your stomach looks bigger
and your eyes are just holes in your face
and it rains every day
but when it doesn't
the sun makes you feel worse anyway
[Chorus again]
G C
Though you knew there was no way
F G
it was going to last forever it still shook you
C F Fm
when he told you in a letter that he didn't want to see you
C
you nearly lost your mind oh yeah
You've lost your lipgloss... etc, to end
Sorry I can't do tab, hope you like it.

| Why has nobody commented on this? It's about a relationship that has always been very one sided, and now because the man has decided he's tired of the woman, and tells her where to get off. He's started seeing another woman with long black hair, but instead of feeling angry the main character just submisses and accepts that her time is over, even though it's tearing her apart. | |

| Kraila is totally correct on the meaning I reckon- I think the chorus is amazing, but the mental guitar breakdown at the end is amazing!! "You've lost your lipgloss honey!" Makes me want to scream when commuting to work, such a cracking song! | |
