In their eyes is the place that you finally discovered That you love it here, you've got to stay On this rock, not a rock, an island On which you find you love it when you twitch You felt that itch in your petticoat Your pretty, pretty petticoat And then you smiled, he got wild You didn't understand that there's money to be made Beauty is a card that must get played By organizations Well, ooh la, she was such a good girl to me And ooh la, the world just chewed her up and spat her out And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me And ooh la, the world just chewed her up and spat her out The world can be a very big place So be yourself, don't feel out of place Love your man and love him twice Go to Hollywood and pay the price Oh, go to Hollywood And don't be a star, it's such a drag Take care of yourself, don't begin to lag It's a hard life to live, so live it well I'll be your friend and not to pretend I know you, girl In all situations Well, ooh la, she was such a good girl to me Well, ooh la, the world just chewed her up and spat her out And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me And ooh la, the world just chewed her up and spat her out Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty petticoat Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty petticoat In all situations Well, ooh la, she was such a good girl to me And ooh la, the world just chewed her up and spat her out And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me And ooh la, the world just chewed her up and spat her out
We had so much fun She gave me an eskimo kiss We put a record on It said the same to us, they sung "Oh, it's so much fun!" She's like a rose without the thorns She's like a sunflower that Never looks back at the sun She see's me running She's like a diamond in the rough She's like the first girl on earth you wanted to touch She see's me running We went back to her place I thought I said id had the wrong face I put another one on we set sail, as the night gets long Oh, it's so much fun! She's like a rose without the thorns She's like a sunflower that Never looks back at the sun She see's me running She's like a diamond in the rough She's like the first girl on earth you wanted to touch She's touching touch Oh, lonely bones Well, I'm coming through the sun And our lives have just begun but oh, lonely bones Well, I'm coming through the sun And our lives had just begun and it goes... La la la la la La La la la la La la la la la La la la la la Did you ever wonder why This old world will make you cry And it goes ... La la la la la Did you ever wonder why This old world will make you cry
See the same old crowd again Wash my hands and shake my feet And yes I missed you all Since I last saw you I fell down the rabbit hole As I wonder what we'd be like Wrapped up so uptight with you Lust will do funny things I don't want you to go out looking so good And you look so good Rosie, well I feel your love and I want you to agree to be Still take your time but get to me, Rosie... She looked away as I mentioned my name Street lights light up my shame The world will take you and swallowed you whole You're a big girl and I think that you already know You've been bought and sold Be careful with me I see that all that you see And Troy died in a day for little Rosie Rosie, well I feel your love and I want you to agree to be Still take your time, roll your stone to me, Rosie... Gonna find you now I'll walk the beat And you'll do me a pirouette in the street And although we'll fall we'll find our feet Rosie Oh well I wanted you so easily Illusions past and now I see An image is so different to reality Rosie... Oh Ro-Rosie
Underrated guitarist. And one of the most underrated bands I've heard. I don't think any of my friends have even heard this band. People either love the Kooks or they've never heard of them.
Do you want to go to the seaside? I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go I fell in love at the seaside I handled my charm with time and slight of hand Do you want to go to the seaside? I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go I fell in love at the seaside She handled her charm with time and slight of hand and, oh But I'm just trying to love you In any kind of way But I find it hard to love you girl When you're far away Away Do you want to go to the seaside? I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go But I fell in love on the seaside On the seaside In the seaside
Man their first album was so good and then they came out with Konk and somehow it was even better. Their music just takes me back to the happiest time of my life
Will always be one of my fav bands. Really been digging into them again lately. I hope to see Max’s solo stuff back up online again. Anyone know where those few other songs on Spotify from a couple years ago disappeared to?? So many good memories of these songs… Thankyou to The Kooks ❤️
