Menswear Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I only brought three, what you lookin' at me for?
She's dressed in white and putting off crying
Well, you're the best man, so what's the plan?
Why don't you talk to Matty about it?
Said, "I only brought three like I told you before
We're gonna have to ask about"

[Verse 2]
And free bar, that's the point
Spilling amaretto 'cause of previous joints
I'm sitting with a girl, fortunate placing
Preceding railing racket off a porcelain basin
And who's he, giving it the lips?
I've never seen him knockin' about
He looks just like me, but six-foot-three
So I reckon you could knock him out

[Verse 3]
Well, I think I'll say a couple of words if you don't mind
I never really got on with your bird the first time
I met her out, dressed in nowt
Telling everybody you were shagging about
Well, who's this, going for the kiss?
I'm probably gonna yosh in your mouth
Because it's five past three, I can hardly see
And I'm on the verge of passing out

What did The 1975 say about "Menswear"?

Menswear is about fighting and the politics of drugs at a wedding. Everything that goes into that, everyone knows what that’s like. I’ve been to a lot of weddings. If you’re in a manor in the middle of the countryside, there’s a certain number of things that you can achieve, and the song’s about tha...

What else have the artists said about the song?

“Menswear” was about my best friend’s sister’s wedding. It was absolute chaos, I remember listening to “Blinded By The Lights” by The Streets. The imagery that the song conjures was this wedding. George had this piece of rhythmic ambient music and these two ideas became “Menswear”.
