I heard you´d moved out of that flat in St Denis
Away from the bars and the cars and the smells of the city So you shop in all those lucrative places
With a Sherazar shimmer among all the glamourous faces

But I sometimes wonder how it could be
If you´d been more commercial and me less twee
Life is in a whirl Life is just a pearl
For the Sunshine Girl

When you were young you sung
All the candy peel tunes dressed in pop pantaloons
And spent aftemoons in front of cartoons
Well people like you and me concentrate on our lives
And that´s how it should be Cos we see more than most people can see

But I sometimes wonder how it could be Ifyou´d been more commercial and me less twee
Life is in a whirl Life is just a pearl For the Sunshine Girl

Hardly 21 and hardly broke
You were thought of as sunshine and coke
Success made you see what reallife could be
I hope you´re happy

But I sometimes wonder how it could be
If you´d been more commercial and me less twee
Life is in a whirl Life is just a pearl
For the Sunshine Girl
