Intro

Pineapples are in my head

Got nobody 'cause I'm brain-dead

Pineapples are in my head

Got nobody 'cause I'm brain-dead

Verse 1

Somewhere in Southend when you were fun

You took my hand and you made me run

Up past the prison to the seafront

You climbed the cliff edge and took the plunge

Pre-Chorus

Why can’t we laugh now like we did then?

How come I see you and ache instead?

How come you only look pleased in bed?

Let's climb the cliff edge and jump again (Whoo!)

Chorus

Pineapples are in my head

(Pineapples are in my head)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead)

Verse 2

Somebody said I'm a fuckin' slum

Don’t know where I belong

Maybe you’re fucking dumb

Maybe I’m just a bum

Maybe you’re fucking scum

Don’t you go psycho chum

I want you for the world

I want you all the time (stop)

Chorus

Pineapples are in my head

(When you were fun)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(You made me run)

Pineapples are in my head

(To the seafront)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(She took the plunge)

Bridge

Five thousand footsteps in your wet dress

Back to the house with your arms round my neck

We drank pork soda with tangled legs

I won’t forget how you looked at me then

I know I'm no sweet prince of love

Those times that we got drunk

Maybe Jamaica rum

Maybe some Jonnie Dub

Maybe you still think of us

Phone buzz, and still I jump

Why don't I say it then?

I want you all the time

Pre-Chorus

Why can’t we laugh now like we did then?

How come I see you and ache instead?

How come you only look pleased in bed?

Let's climb the cliff edge and jump again

Chorus

Pineapples are in my head

(Pineapples are in my head)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead)

Pineapples are in my head

(Pineapples are in my head)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead)

Outro

Pineapples are in my head

(Pineapples are in my head)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead)

Pineapples are in my head

(Pineapples are in my head)

Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead

(Got nobody 'cause I’m brain-dead)
