Lyrics: The last one was the perennial favourite Wonderwall by Oasis from 1996, (yes, it is a bit shocking that it's a decade old), as pointed out by tree_and_leaf, jesspallas, golden_d, lareinenoire, msmoocow, and somebody anonymous ...

So this one seems appropriate for today:

Wake up in the morning with a head like 'what ya done?'
This used to be the life but I don't need another one.
You like cuttin' up and carrying on, you wear them gowns.
So how come I feel so lonely when you're up getting down? (2000s)

Unless I'm very much mistaken, it's The Scissor Sisters, I Don't Feel Like Dancing.

No, you're not mistaken. :)

I really think, as a professional and ergo something of a ringer at games like this, I should stop playing... ;)

Damn! I knew it sounded familiar, but I couldn't place it.

I have peculiar associations with that song, as I first heard it while helping out at a Cub Scout sleepover. Ever since then, I've always connected it with small over excitied children dressed up as cave men - I don't imagine that's what they intended...

I like the description on the Now CD -- 'the happiest sounding song ever written about staying in and feeling miserable'. :D
