Gloria

Here are two versions of the lyrics to Gloria. The first is the version on the Waking Up single (which originally comes from a Peel Session). The second is the version used when the song was part of their set at Bristol Sound City '95. As there is no proper studio recording of Gloria it's anyone's guess which is right (if either)

(All For) Gloria
From Peel Session
Recorded - 6/12/94

You're so merry up on high
Oh so scarily on high
Gloria never ever cries
Cos she's just too busy
Gloria never shuts her eyes
Cos it makes her dizzy

And now you've got it all
What do you want it for
Are you sick or
Do you just want more
You're a strange girl, Gloria

You say you've got it all
What do you want it for
All that noise [you got]
Oh, oh
Oh, Gloria

Oh so merry up on high

Now you've got it all
What do you want it for
All that noise [you got]
Well you're just a whore
Oh, oh, Gloria

Cos you've got it all
What do you want it for
You're a strange girl
All that noise [you got]
Oh, oh, Gloria
Hosanna in excelsis

Gloria
Bristol Sound City '95
Anson Rooms - 17/4/95

You're so merry up on high
Oh so scarily on high
Gloria never ever cries
Cos she's just too busy
Gloria never shuts her eyes
Cos it makes her dizzy

Now you've got it all
What do you want it for
All that noise [you got]
Do you still want more
You're a strange girl, Gloria

You say you've got it all
What do you want it for
All that noise [you got]
Well you're just a whore
You're a sick girl, Gloria

Oh so scary up on high

You say you've got it all
What do you want it for
All that noise [you got]
Well you're still a whore
You're a sick girl, Gloria

You say you've got it all
What do you want it for
All that noise [you got]
Do you still want more
You're a strange girl, Gloria
Hosanna in excelsis
