[Chorus: Helen Marnie & Mira Aroyo]
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won't get you along
Hey, playgirl
[Refrain: Helen Marnie]
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
[Chorus: Helen Marnie & Mira Aroyo]
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won't get you along
Hey, playgirl
[Refrain: Helen Marnie]
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
[Interlude]

Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
[Bridge: Helen Marnie]
Foreign coin on a telephone box
A question mark on a calendar
An empty seat on the alpha line
A sorting code, an account number
[Refrain: Helen Marnie]
Hey, playgirl
Hey, playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
