Well we were born within an hour of each other.
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother.
Your name is Deborah, De-bor-ah. It never suited you.
And they said that when we grew up, we’d get married
And never split up. Oh we never did it, although I often thought of it.
CHORUS
Oh Deborah, do you recall? Your house was very small
with wood-chip on the wall. When I came round to call
you didn’t notice me at all, and I said: “Let’s all meet up in the year 2000.
Won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown?
Be there two o’clock by the fountain down the road.”
I never knew that you’d get married. I would be living
down here on my own on that damp and lonely Thursday years ago.
You were the first girl at school to get breast and Martin said that
You were the best. Oh, the boys all loved you, but I was amess.
I had to watch them try and get you undressed. We were friend sand
that’s as far as it went. I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant:
Oh, it meant nothing to you ‘cause you were so popular.
CHORUS
Oh Deborah, do you recall? Your house was very small
with wood-chip on the wall. When I came round to call
you didn’t notice me at all, and I said: “Let’s all meet up in the year 2000.
Won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown?
Be there two o’clock by the fountain down the road.”
I never knew that you’d get married. I would be living
down here on my own on that damp and lonely Thursday years ago.
Oh yeah, oh yeah. Oh Deborah, do you recall? Your house was very small
with wood-chip on the wall. When I came round to call
you didn’t notice me at all, and I said: “Let’s all meet up in the year 2000.
Won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown?
Be there two o’clock by the fountain down the road.”
I never knew that you’d get married. I would be living
down here on my own on that damp and lonely Thursday years ago.
Oh, what are you doing Sunday, baby? Would you like to come and meet me maybe?

Would you like to come and meet me maybe? You can even bring your baby?
Ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh… Ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ooh
