Sylvia Lyrics

(Jarvis Cocker, Nick Banks, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey, Mark Webber)
You look just like Sylvia
(Well, you look like her to me)
The way she wore her hair then
Oh, the way she used to be
I've not seen her for a long time
Though I've heard she's still around
Her father's living with some girl
Who's a year younger than her
She's living in the country now, yeah
Oh, she's trying to get better
Her beauty was her only crime
Yeah, I remember Sylvia
So keep believing
And do what you do
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better
And please stop asking
What it's got to do with you
Oh keep believing, 'cos you know that you deserve better
Who's this man you're talking to?
Can't you see what he wants to do?
He thinks if he stands near enough
Then he will look as good as you
And he don't care about your problems
He just wants to show his friends
I guess I'm just the same as him
Oh I just didnt know it then
I never understood you really
And I know it's too late now
You didnt ask to be that way
Oh I'm sorry Sylvia
So keep believing
And do what you do
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better
And please stop asking
What it's got to do with you
Oh keep believing, 'cos you know that you deserve better
Bridge/solo
Oh it's true, yeah
