  • Staggering home, the headlights throw a shadow up and upon
    Friends and loved ones that have done no wrong
    But no longer mean anything to me
    Oh am I mumbling on, into a crystal glass that echoes a song?
    The enticement invites you along a path of exterior color

    But come the morning, shivering and contorting
    To border on the brink for just another sink, oh take me down
    For one more round

    Oh, involve me in libation, stick a rock in my foundation,
    I pick all my relations, put me on probation, oh I'll take you down
    For one last round

    Oh, Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
    Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
    Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
    Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
    Now all I want to do is snuggle up to you
    A night-cap in the early morning dew

    Look, what have I become? Dispensing myself so far and from
    But gazing out I waved the night boat on
    For now it's heaven in deepest Tottenham

    Oh, what have I done to deserve this fate? It's all going wrong
    Even the cab fare has been and gone
    And now I'm lagging in deepest Tottenham

    But come the morning, shivering and contorting
    To border on the brink for just another sink, oh take me down
    For one more round

    Yeah, Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
    Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
    Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost,
    Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings

    Fight me, fight me, strike me down with lightning
    I've given in to fighting
    Now all I want to do is get up close to you
    A night-cap in the early morning dew

    Oh, Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
    Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
    Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
    Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings

    Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
    I'm giving it my utmost, I've fallen for a lamppost
    With my deepest feelings

    Now all I want to do is snuggle up to you
    A night-cap in the early morning dew Writer/s: Cathal Joseph Smyth, Christopher John Foreman, Daniel Mark Woodgate, Graham Mcpherson, Lee Jay Thompson, Mark William Bedford, Michael Barson

  • Dave from Cardiff, WalesGreat song, hilarious video with it's theme of Suggs "falling in love" with a lamp-post! Classic Madness, they could always be relied on to put out a catchy song with a funny video, and this was no exception, even after over a decade out of the limelight!
