Lyrics

(Original title, the ran tan)
B-side of babooshka single
Written by kate bush

Where is she
When the little thing cries?
She lies in a bed
With a friend of mine
But some nights
She'll run back in fright
If she picks on a dick
That's too big for her pride

Oh! oh!
Why did I ever go marry her?
I was a child!
I'm holding the baby
She's ran-tanning constantly
She saw me coming for miles
She saw me open wide

Four o'clock
And the key's in the lock
And she's been on the wink
And she's stinking of drink
Wakes the kid
So I put him to sleep
And she's in there all night
Doubled over the sink

Oh! oh!
Why did I ever go marry her?
I was a child!
I'm holding the baby
She's ran-tanning constantly
She saw me coming for miles
She saw me open wide
Open wide
