The tenth song on The Fratellis' debut album, Costello Music, Everybody Knows You Cried Last Night tells the story of a reluctant prostitute and what the narrator has heard about her from others through gossip.
[Verse 1]
Whistle for the boys, now don't be shy
Give us all a song and a reason why
Baby got the bones and a hand me down
Says her heart is black but her eyes are brown
Give the boys a flash and they'll love you so
Give the girl some cash 'cause your mother said so
And take 'em out to look at the queen
And any old girl who's in between
[Pre-Chorus]
Lay yourself down by the side of the bed
Oh, you naughty girl, you know you tickle me red
You look so dumb and you sound so twee
And you can only wish that you was married to me
[Chorus]
Well, that's what you get
Oh, don't get upset
Ridiculous you
Waiting in the queue, oh whoopee-doo
You could have been
The best that I've seen
Under the red light
Everybody knows you cried last night
[Verse 2]
Now give us all a go 'til your face turns red
Little Greg said you went home instead
If you stick around you'll get an alibi
And we'll try and keep your pretty face bone dry
Rent a honey, rent a honey, one, two, three
Keeping all the boys from your door can't be easy
Well, Ruby said you was wrecked
But you were never well behaved the last time I checked
[Pre-Chorus]
Lay yourself down by the side of the bed
Oh, you naughty girl, you know you tickle me red
You look so dumb and you sound so twee
And you can only wish that you were married to me
[Chorus]
Well, that's what you get
Oh, don't get upset
Ridiculous you
Waiting in the queue, oh whoopee-doo
You could have been
The best that I've seen
Under the red light
Everybody knows you cried last night
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
Lay yourself down by the side of the bed
Oh, you naughty girl, you know you tickle me red
You look so dumb and you sound so twee
And you can only wish that you were married to me
[Chorus]
Well, that's what you get
Oh, don't get upset
Ridiculous you
Waiting in the queue, oh whoopee-doo
You could have been
The best that I've seen
Under the red light
Everybody knows you cried last night
Everybody knows you cried last night
