I can't remember a worse time Oh, but you know that we've changed So much since then Oh yeah, we've grown Now I don't care what you're doing No, I don't care if you screw him Just as long as you save a piece for me Oh yeah, ooooh So you've gotta go home Well at least there's someone there That you can turn to And you never have to face up to The night on you're own Jesus, it must be great To be straight Do you remember the first time? I can't remember a worse time Oh, but you know that we've changed So much since then Oh yeah, we've grown No I don't care what you're doing No I don't care if you screw him Just as long as you save a piece for me Oh yeah, ooooh So you've gotta go home You've gotta go home You say you've gotta go home You have gotta go home Do you remember the first time?

Agreed with all comments here. I'm a massive Pulp fan and clicked on this with trepidation, but it is quite simply wonderful. Brilliantly arranged and a great vocal that is faithful to the original version but nonetheless Sophie Ellis Bextor has tailored it to her voice and it is all the better for it. Really lovely :) I'd add however, it isn't better than the original, don't get too carried away people!
