[00:00:00] Valley of the Lost Women - John Cooper Clarke

[00:00:02] Written by：John Cooper Clarke/James Martin Hannett/Stephen Anthony Hopkins

[00:00:14] The windows are frigidaire icebergs

[00:00:18] Frozen in prickly heat

[00:00:21] The vanishing cream victims

[00:00:24] Are drip fed amnesia neat

[00:00:28] Where the test card melodies warm you

[00:00:31] In powder blue pseudo bel air

[00:00:35] Germs and flies alarm you

[00:00:38] They whisper the word expelair

[00:00:49] The eyes of the night sub zero

[00:00:53] Peep through the windows of sleep

[00:00:56] Everyone's husband is a hero

[00:00:59] And ghost insurance men creep

[00:01:02] Through the valley of the long lost women

[00:01:07] Dreaming under the driers

[00:01:10] Eating and sleeping and slimming

[00:01:13] According to what is required

[00:01:16] They walk through three colour brochures

[00:01:19] Depicting palms on aqua marine

[00:01:23] In the half built hotels out of focus

[00:01:27] They're mending the vending machines

[00:01:30] Where sixty Italian love songs

[00:01:34] Are sung to a million guitars

[00:01:37] They lick their frozen drinks on sticks

[00:01:40] Among the men with important cigars

[00:01:45] Numb to the digital numbers

[00:01:48] None two three

[00:01:50] Four five six

[00:01:51] Lost in a far away rhumba

[00:01:55] Where the oil drums are beaten with sticks

[00:01:58] She left her heart in Frisco

[00:02:02] She left her room in a mess

[00:02:05] She left her hat in the disco

[00:02:09] She never left her address

[00:02:12] The diving board springs to assistance

[00:02:16] Throws you off from the shore

[00:02:19] Telephones ring in the distance

[00:02:23] There are lifts getting stuck between floors

[00:02:26] A truck turns into a cul de sac

[00:02:30] Springtime turns to ice

[00:02:33] Rucksacks turn into hunchbacks

[00:02:37] Musclemen turn into mice

[00:02:40] In a painless panorama

[00:02:43] With its perpendicular might

[00:02:47] The women are going bananas

[00:02:51] And disappearing from sight

[00:03:00] What do the girls say
