Big Julie Lyrics by Jarvis Cocker

Jarvis

2006

It was a summer when for long time she'd not been a member
She belonged to no club and she was a member of nothing in the world
And she was afraid
She's by herself again in the quiet secret night
Below the neighbor's window
Hands in pockets, head on one side
And the radio plays an unknown song
That has nothin' at all to do with God
But it's miles away from this sad town
And the stupid kids who get her down
Just wait until Big Julie rules the world
Big Julie rules the world
Well, the radio still plays
Floating beyond time
Like the greatest people in the world
All springin' up and feelin' fine
And it's far away from these sweaty lads
Who say that boys cannot be slags
And if it's not them then it's their dads
Like the guy who felt her up in class
And the Sunday school teacher
Who said she had beautiful breasts
And the local radio DJ who is so obviously obsessed
Yeah, form an orderly queue when Big Julie rules the world
Big Julie rules the world
Yeah, go and chase your dreams
But if your dreams are not your own
Then wouldn't it be better
Just to work things out at home?
And she knows sex is just for dummies anyway
Something you do when you've run out of things to say
But this song will play until the light
It's the sound of her tryin' to find somethin' to like
The sound of her walkin' day and night
And this song may lead her far away
But tonight it seems to light the way
And she can almost see the future shine
And everything's in tune and everything's in time
It will play until the day
Big Julie rules the world
Big Julie rules the world
