I'll run to you now
From somewhere you won't find me
A different place
A different time

Together that summer
We raised some hell, yeah
But I couldn't forget
You're a kiss and tell

Carrie's got a boyfriend
Carrie's got a boyfriend
Carrie's got a boyfriend

June 4th, 1989, Primrose Hill, Staten Island
Chalk Farm, Massif Central, Gospel Oak, Sao Paolo
Boston Manor, Costa Rica, Arnos Grove
San Clemente, Tufnell Park, Gracetown, York Way

Videoton, Clerkenwell, Portobello, Maida Vale
Old Ford, Valencia, Kennington, Galveston
Holland Park, Studamer, Dollis Hill, Fougeres
London Fields, Bratislava, Haggerston

Lavinia, Canonbury, Alice Springs
Tooting Graveney, Baffin Island
Pollard's Hill, Winnepeg, Plumstead Common
Hyderabad, Silvertown, Buffalo

If I hadn't left you
Suppose we'd still be lovers
Still be the fights
And I'd ladder my tights

Carrie's got a boyfriend
Carrie's got a boyfriend
Carrie's got a boyfriend
...

    I read somewhere, (NME probably) they borrowed the idea of a list if places from "Justify my love". The idea of transforming the ordinary is expounded on the sleeve of the album, Fox Base Alpha.

    Can't believe this song has no comments, I love it.

    Also, the date, June 4th 1989 was the day of the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Look at me commenting on the 25th anniversary. Sad huh?
