Yeah, well, they actually DO sing it as "at least they know where to put
it". It's especially clear in the Evening session recording I've got on
tape, where Seeing Other People is really, really slow (so I couldn't have
misheard it this time)!
It's funnier this way than on the lyric sheet, I think.
Has anyone read the small print beneath the lyrics for Pulp albums? It says,
"Please do not read the lyrics while listening to this recording". Maybe
that'd be a good idea for B&S...?
