You look just like Sylvia:
Well you look like her to me -
the way she wore her hair then.
Oh, the way she used to be.
I've not seen her for a long time
though I've heard she's still around.
Her father's living with some girl
who's a year younger than her.
She's living in the country now yeah.
Oh, she's trying to get better.
Her beauty was her only crime.
Yeah, I remember Sylvia.
*So keep believing & do what you do,
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better.
& please stop asking
what it's got to do with you.
Oh, keep believing 'cos you know that you deserve better.
Who's this man you're talking to?
Can't you see what he wants to do?
He thinks if he stands near enough then he will look as good as you.
Oh, he don't care about your problems. He just wants to show his friends.
I guess I'm just the same as him -
I just didn't know it then.
I never understood you really
& I know it's too late now.
You didn't ask to be that way.
Oh, I'm sorry Sylvia.
[*Repeat]
So keep believing & do what you do,
I can't help you but I know things are gonna get better.
Yeah you know that you deserve better. [x2]
Oh Sylvia.

Pulp è un gruppo musicale britannico formatosi a Sheffield nel 1978 da Jarvis Cocker, cantante e principale compositore del gruppo, insieme ad alcuni compagni di scuola. Dopo una fase iniziale caratterizzata da cambiamenti frequenti nella formazione e sperimentazioni musicali in diversi generi, il successo arrivò negli anni '90 con un sound indie rock fortemente influenzato dalla cultura popolare britannica. Pulp è considerato uno dei gruppi più importanti della scena musicale inglese degli anni '90, grazie a album come *Different Class* (1995) e *This Is Hardcore* (1998), che hanno riscosso grande successo di critica e pubblico. Jarvis Cocker è noto per il suo stile provocatorio e le sue performance teatrali sul palco. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo ricordiamo "Common People", "Disco 2000" e "Babies".
