Текст пісні
Welcome to the world of singledom
Microwave dinners made for one
Lies in her bed, stares into space
Wistfully thinks of their last embrace
But there's plenty more fish in that ocean
Someone with genuine emotion
The bottle is empty, it's getting late
Types in the virtues of her perfect mate
Committed, kind, clean body and mind
Solvent, truthful, refined
Adds an alias for anonymity
A postcode for proximity
Concealing her age, revealing her doubt
That staying in is the new going out
But she's dreaming of whiskery lips
Kissing their way from ankles to hips
Breasts are yearning, loins are burning
Flirting with the point of no returning
Swipe to the left, swipe to the right
She needs somebody tonight
Oh yeah? Oh yeah
The passionate cries of shared desires
She needs somebody tonight
Oh yeah? Oh yeah
Sitting at the bar, mindlessly drinking
Eating crisps and thinking
It's making him anxious, bruising his heart
She seems happier now they're apart
Though he was the one who fled their cage
He's now the question mark on the empty page
But life is short, it's growing dark
Is tonight the night he'll make a fresh start?
Is travel more satisfying than destination?
The chase more exciting than consummation?
Wrestling with thoughts he dare not speak
He feels so shallow it's almost deep
Then three pints down, he's feeling fine
He's nowhere, everywhere, at the same time
Bullied by his bodily urges
Checks his phone and recent searches
The fluid starts to rise
That familiar throb deep inside
Swipe to the left, swipe to the right
He needs somebody tonight
Oh yeah? Oh yeah
The passionate cries of shared desires
He needs somebody tonight
Oh yeah? Oh yeah
A vast mosaic of electric eyes
