Sleeper - Nice Guy Eddie Lyrics






So I'll admit that it all started as a scam
'Cause every girl wanted you and a year round tan
We know you're old but you're kind
You're rich and your heart is dicky
Yes I knew that you wanted me

And he said
Hey love how are you fixed
We'll meet at ten past now it's quarter to six
We'll spend the whole night making love on the sofa
It may sound funny but he wasn't supposed to

And then we both settled down to our favourite meal
D'you fancy veal parmesan and a case of warm chianti
Pass my bag I picked up that bra you fancied
Yes I knew that you wanted me

And he said
Hey love how are you fixed
We'll meet at ten past now it's quarter to six
We'll spend the whole night making love on the sofa
It may sound funny but he wasn't supposed to

Oh we knew it couldn't last
And we should have left it long before
One great year and one for luck
And like all good things you soon want more
You were always so polite
I think I loved you

And I said
Hey love I'm making it easy on us
I'll leave and a few of our dreams turn to dust
All night making love on your sofa
And it may sound funny but he wasn't supposed to
Summer '92 I remember it clearly
When he choked on the olive in his dry martini
There was dismay from friends he was close to
And it may sound funny but it wasn't supposed to be

  1. K.... D....

    Louise is still a mega babe

  2. T.... ....

    Did she ever wear a bra?

  3. D.... G....

    Great armography. What a top bird!

  4. D.... M....

    Oh my god! This was my crush for the amazing decade call the 90s. A decade where intellect was deemed sexy, an open mind was beautiful and borders seemed invisible. I genuinely hope that when we die we get to live in the era you loved best. Big love to the 90s teens xx

  5. S.... R....

    phwoooaar

  6. T.... J....

    How many times she blink? 😳

  7. D.... G....

    That point at 0:52 when even her eyes are dancing.

  8. E.... ....

    The sexy face of brits era!!!

  9. a.... ....

    Spend the whole night making love on your sofa. Well, i can probably make a couple of hours, but the whole night, I'll need a little kip in between!!!!

  10. a.... ....

    Oh I'm sorry, I've just come

  11. a.... ....

    23 years ago, Damn!!

    a.... ....

    Times fly
    When you're having fun
    I miss the 90s
    Where did it all go LOL

    a.... ....

    Back when Stone Island was a credible label...

  12. C.... ....

    The forgotten pulp music video??cracking tune and band though.

  13. K.... B....

    Seen a good amount of 'britpop' bands during the 90's and like others, Sleeper were massively underrated.  Seen them in the 90's 3 times and Newcastle and Manchester in 2019 and hoping for Knebworth too - fantastic band.  Thanks for the memories Sleeper, past and present and hope to see you in 2020.  Great new album too.  God bless Britpop - most underrated period in British music.  Seeing these guys this year brought it all back and fantastic (drunken!) memories.  Thanks Sleeper

  14. m.... h....

    Fantastic song.

  15. D.... C....

    😍😍😍

  16. P.... W....

    Giggady..

  17. J.... W....

    Always liked Wener's refusal to conform to the standard issue left-liberal spiel, but my God, the songs are paper thin rubbish.

    J.... W....

    *You're* paper thin rubbish

  18. l.... w....

    thank you

  19. A.... T....

    Going to see them on Saturday in Glasgow. Can’t wait

    J.... R....

    Puts a lot of singers to shame. Seen them live twice, once "back in the day" and once a couple of months ago. Sorry, no way I can agree with your comment.

  23. A.... H....

    Just saw Sleeper at Latitude festival and they opened with this song. Great tune.

  48. T.... V....

    1:00 "chimpanzee veal, parmesan, and a case of warm chianti" anyone?

  49. S.... ....

    I wonder if Louise ever realised how many men pleasured themselves to her?

    S.... ....

    SonicJaneStooge TMI———-x

    S.... ....

    I wonder if you'll ever realise what utter pond life you are

  50. P.... G....

    She was sooo cute !

  51. B.... ....

    We loved them. Our dads wanted to give her one

  52. a.... ....

    YES i knew you wanted me.

  53. G.... O....

    love louise

  54. S.... D....

    117 views only do ppl know about the Brit pop seen. And that sort Louise. Obviously not!!!

  55. �.... ....

    So I'll admit that it all started as a scam
    'Cause every girl wanted you and a year round tan
    We know you're old but you're kind
    You're rich and your heart is dicky
    Yes I knew that you wanted me

  56. T.... O....

    Why did Britpop lead singers always blink loads while they sang? Usually while looking upwards.

    T.... O....

    SANG...OMG this aint singing

    T.... O....

    'Cos Jarvis did it & they all copied him.

  57. S.... R....

    Reminds me off dropping a white dove in the liquid rooms in edinburgh, ending up at a dodgy party with 2 chinese lasses in a single bed!! Not much happened but we talked the whole night before someone kicked us all out and I got lost trying to walk to the train station to get home!! memories,...can't take them away

  58. M.... D....

    now days I just have a quick ham shank on the sofa

    M.... D....

  60. a.... ....

    C'mon I know i:m not the only one spending all night making love on my sofa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  66. E.... G....

    b.... b....

    +bonnie bianco 20 years ago, fucking scary how old we're getting!!!!!!

  68. a.... ....

    YES i wanted you

  69. a.... ....

    the whole night making love on your sofa? well i'll do my best!!!!!!!!!!!!

  70. S.... G....

    Everybody wanted to be Jarvis Cocker in the 1990's. Louise Wener was the only one who had the looks and the talent.

    S.... G....

    +Sir Garwy Um...  Not sure on the musical talent front but she DID write an absolutely fantastic biography called Different for Girls. One of the best written in the business. Musically....? A couple of good songs... A nondescript backing band, and Justine Frischmann was way cooler. And Damon Albarn way prettier! And Jarvis way cleverer. And Brett Anderson way sexier. I could go on...

    S.... G....

    She was gorgeous ha. Omg I loved this song when I was 16 I forgot it existed.

    S.... G....

    Sir Garwy what about Sonya Madden from echobelly
    she is sexy as hell

    S.... G....

    @Darren 12345 For me it was always a dead heat between Louise and Sonia, both musically and looks wise. I had a mad crush on 'em both back in the 90's and to be completely honest ... still do.

    S.... G....

    @Damian Reid they are both gorgeous
    But I've always preferred Sonia madden
    Do you remember Tiffany?
    Then again I've always adored redheaded women

  71. D.... M....

    Last night I dreamed we were shooting this video (quite different in the dream) and I was trying to seduce Louise. :D

  72. M.... S....

    I remember it clearly when he choked on the olive in his dry martini

  73. s.... f....

    Holy .... I just google hr, she's 49!!! wtf, where did my youth go??

    s.... f....

    +steven f Scary....... isn't it? :P
