"Playgirl" Lyrics:
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won't get you along
Hey, playgirl
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you dancing when you could be alone?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, why are you sleeping in tomorrow's world?
Hey, playgirl
Playgirl, choking on cigarettes won't get you along
Hey, playgirl
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Foreign coin on a telephone box
A question mark on a calendar
An empty seat on the alpha line
A sorting code, an account number
Hey playgirl, hey playgirl
Northern lights catch you coming down
Sleep your way out of your hometown Subscribe to Nettwerk's KZbin channel:

Like all straight guys my cell phone might occasionally conduct that certain search or visitation to known sites. Once on a certain comical adult sight they had a short video of a Male striptease guy inviting one of a very few women from the audience, she was like one of seven people there. He wrapped a town around her upper half and his lower half and he messed all in here hair. She was not an attractive woman at all but this was the song either in the dance or in that site's editing of the horrific siuation captured on film. So that's my introduction to lady tron. Thank God for the power of lyric searches.

@@metalandwood4u Damn, that video is that old? I know Ladytron had been around for a while (I'm 2000s kid, 23 now) but had no clue how old the video clip was. If it is that old I am going to assume it was part of some bootleg sex tape collection or something and ended up on Efukt as a result. Wouldn't surprise me since a lot of randomly archived stuff ends up that way only to become some crazy joke or gag years later, same goes for a lot of ARGs to since mystery/horror type stuff is a hobby of mine.
