Suede

Suede are an English alternative rock band from London, formed in 1989. The group's most prominent early line-up featured singer Brett Anderson, guitarist Bernard Butler, bass player Mat Osman and drummer Simon Gilbert. By 1992, Suede were hailed as "The Best New Band in Britain", and attracted much attention from the British music press. The following year their glam rock-inspired debut album, Suede, went to the top of the charts, became the fastest-selling debut album in almost ten years and won the Mercury Music Prize, helping kick-start the Britpop movement.

You've had your fun  your money's gone 
You're only friend is the telephone 
Oh duchess  now you're one of us 

You stay at home and lights the light 
They make you smile in the empty night 
Oh duchess now you're one of us 

Well she knows Latinos and she knows Mexicans 
And she sits alone by the telephone 
But they won't call back again 

You count the pounds and cut your hair 
Won't someone send you a millionaire? 
Oh duchess, now you're one of us 

No friends to see, no car to drive 
You'd go to bars but you're much too shy 
Oh duchess, now you're one of us 

Well she knows Latinos and she knows Mexicans 
And she sits alone over 13 stone 
And they won't come back again 

She knows Latinos and she knows Mexicans 
But now things are tough and they've had enough 
And they won't come back again 

You've had your fun your money's gone 
You spend all day by the telephone
