Lyrics:


No one can do all the things you do
And stimulate the G-rays
No one can do all the things you do
And leave me in the same way
No one can do all the things you do
Amd elevate my pulse rate

I've tried a west end pad and a classic car
My favourite drink in my favourite bar
A few close friends and a movie star
But they still leave me wanting you again

No one can do all the things you do
And hit me in the right place
No one can do all the things you do
And leave me in the same way

I've tried a west end pad and a classic car
My favourite drink in my favourite bar
A few close friends and a movie star
But they still leave me wanting you again

And every single time
I ask myself why it never feels the same
And every single time
I have quizzed my mind till I nearly racked my brain
But I think still
It's amazing

I've tried a west end pad and a classic car
My favourite drink in my favourite bar
A few close friends and a movie star
But they still leave me wanting you again

I've tried a west end pad and a classic car
My favourite drink in my favourite bar
A few close friends and a movie star
But they still leave me wanting you again

I've tried a west end pad and a classic car
My favourite drink in my favourite bar
A few close friends and a movie star
But they still leave me wanting you again

Review


West End Pad is a strange song, and one I have a lot of trouble getting a handle on. Sometimes I love it, other times I think it's just all right, it depends what mood you're in I suppose. Of all
Am I The Kinda Girl it's the most transitional and so a good starting point. But not great.
Rating... 3/5

Take me back to the index.
Take me back to the Discography.
Take me back to the listing for Waterloo Sunset.
Take me on to the listing for We've Got To Fight.
