Year: 2001
'There's a light that shines on everythin' and everyone
And it shines so bright, brighter even than the sun'
That's what Minnie thinks as she walks to meet her brother
Who is nearly two years older, on a Saturday night
He's DJing at some do on the edge of town
On the night that Minnie Timperley died
It's such a beautiful world
You're such a beautiful girl
So much that you want to try
The world wants to sleep with you tonight
But Minnie, Minnie if I could
I would give you the rest of my life
How can a girl have sex with these pathetic teenage wrecks?
All football scarves, the girls drink halves and her brother's crying
'Cause he has lost his decks
Outside the air was cool, an older guy sitting in his car
Asked if Minnie needed a ride
He thought he was still dangerous, paunchy but dangerous
On the night that Minnie Timperley died
It's such a beautiful world
You're such a beautiful girl
And he only did what he did
'Cause you looked like one of his kids
But Minnie, Minnie if I could
I would give you the rest of my life
Oww!
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain, pain, pain, yeah
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain, pain, pain, yeah
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain, yeah
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
Oh Minnie, I can feel the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain, pain, pain, over here
Oh in here
Oh here
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
