Sleeper recorded three studio albums: Smart, The It Girl and Pleased to Meet You. Their breakthrough song, "Inbetweener", featured a memorable video with Dale Winton, who was a popular icon among students at the time. The group is closely associated with Britpop; Wener was arguably, along with Elastica's Justine Frischmann, the movement's biggest female star. She was even something of a sex symbol. By the time Pleased to Meet You was released in 1997, Britpop was fading, as was the band's audience.

Lady Love Your Countryside Lyrics

Sleeper

Lady love your countryside
Your motorways are very nice
Come and get your aerosols
And help me paint up paradise
Lets get messed up boy messed up good
Come and suck down meat with me
Until it makes you feverish
I like to watch you eating stuff
Do you kiss your mother with those lips
Lets get messed up boy messed up good
Climb over here
And we could spend some time drinking and scheming
Well close our eyes
Until we find ourselves hard to believe in
Face it boy life is a mess
I want to see you boxing naked to the death
Run and get your cigarettes
They make your lungs all treacley
You shouldnt look at me like that
Unless you want to mess with me
Lets get messed up boy messed up good
Climb over here
And we can spend some time hacking and wheezing
Well close our eyes
Until we find ourselves hard to believe in
Face it boy life is a mess
I want to see you boxing naked to the
Come over here
And we could spend some time shopping till it gets dark
Come over here
And we could spend our lives puking in belsize park
You know life is a mess
I want to see you boxing naked to the death
