Murphy has said that this song is about a time when he got really bored of living in Liverpool, went to Barcelona for a bit, got “totally hammered”, and convinced himself that his girlfriend was cheating on him.
[Verse 1]
Another magical Friday night
I think I'll sit this one at home
Unusual for me, I know
But please go ahead
I don't wanna be
The blinking rabbit to your wildebeest
The jaded lover to his sex machine
You should go ahead
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And please give those recycled house tracks my warmest regards
And lock the door if you're home before the sun, oh
[Chorus]
Pink, pink lemonade
And does he kiss you 'til your lips explode?
Pink, pink lemonade
And does he take you places I can't afford to go?
Pink lemonade, you know I
Know behind that sugar there's only lies
Lies, lies, lies
[Verse 2]
Another magical Friday night

So please give those recycled house tracks my warmest regards
And, if you bring him home, can you use the spare bedroom? Oh
[Chorus]
Pink, pink lemonade
And does he kiss you 'til your lips explode?
Pink, pink lemonade
And does he take you places I can't afford to go?
Pink lemonade, you know I
Know behind that sugar there's only lies
Lies, lies, lies
[Bridge]
And that's alright and that's okay
If I can write this song I can play that game
And it's all good with me if I know it's all good with you
'Cause getting lost in the middle of the in-between
Is only half as frightening as it first may seem
So do whatever you must and I'll do whatever it must take
[Outro]
Pink lemonade

I went to Barcelona for a week and I’d just sit in a square and get drunk – the song ‘Pink Lemonade’ came from that. I just upped and fucked off and my girlfriend at the time, she went out and I had these ideas that she was fucking other people. I actually forced the paranoia…. Sometimes I purposefu...
