Inspired by a girl who worked in Primark - on the underwear counter. However she always dreamed of becoming an alien investigator ( largely due to her being such an avid X-Files fan).Her boyfriend would turn-up every day after work to meet her. He knew she was one of a kind and he would do anything to keep this love in his life.
lyrics
See the shop-girl leaving Primark
Every Monday through to Saturday
He'll be waiting by the doorway
Every Monday through to Saturday
See the shop-girl working in Primark
Keeps the underwear straight on the shelves
But she's dreaming of chasing aliens
Watched the X-Files when she was so young
And he treats her special
Like she is the only one
Like she is the last fish in the sea
Don't let her get away
See the shop girl leaving Primark
Takes the escalator to the ground floor
He is waiting
They walk the pavements
Dodging raindrops between the buildings
She sees the cars go
She sees the airoplane
Says this is not completely natural
Thinks of faces of the customers
Says we are the only aliens here
And he treats her special
Like she is the only one
Like she is the last fish in the sea
Don't let her get away
