lyrics

They used to say you were a difficult girl
You kicked a bin in double French
I heard your name in conversation through the staff room door
Before they took your cigarettes

Even today we still talk about how you got them back
And then you smoked them
But it’s true you always knew what they said about you
They made their rules and then they broke them

You've got yourself in a very fine mess, it’s a very fine mess indeed
You've got yourself in a very fine mess, it’s a very fine mess indeed


In ’96 you moved away
And we heard that you’re doing okay

I picture you on your phone in your car
Parked up outside tonight’s hotel
You’ve had a few house whites and you’re ready to bite
The head of sales – you give him hell

Well I guess that’s how it goes
You still keep them on their toes
And you can try all your like but you can’t avoid the fight because you

You've got yourself in a very fine mess, it’s a very fine mess indeed
You've got yourself in a very fine mess, it’s a very fine mess indeed
You’re not the best at coping with the stress
It’s a very fine mess indeed

You've got yourself in a very fine mess, it’s a very fine mess indeed
You've got yourself in a very fine mess, it’s a very fine mess indeed
Take some time to get it off your chest
It’s a very fine mess indeed

They create wry, affectionate songs featuring characters in a world specific to a time but nonetheless relatable. The themes of self discovery are, in the end, universal ... more
