LYRICS:
Seven hours since you went away Eleven coffees, Rickki Lake on play But late at night when I'm feeling blue I'd sell my ass before I think of you Seven hours since you closed the door Started a diet, got a manicure Erased your number from my telephone And if you call me I won't be at home He said... Why'd you cry For the guy Say goodbye Runaway Why'd you cry For the guy Say goodbye I said ok, 'cos... Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head Because I do boy, And it's cool boy And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed Because of you boy, Such a fool boy Eleven hours on a brand new day I'm getting ready to go out and play It's late at night, I'm caught in a groove I'd kiss my ass before I'm feeling blue Seven hours, what you calling for? A bunch of flowers and I slam the door You're in my face, sorry what's your name? Takes more than begging to reverse my brain 'cos... Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head Because I do boy, And it's cool boy And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed Because of you boy, Such a fool boy I'm through with it Over it Not having it Crazy sh*t Not feeling this Can't deal, I quit No more, No more I'm through with it Not having it This crazy sh*t Not feeling it Can't deal with it No more, I quit No more, no more Breaking off the ... A brand new day has just begun Just because you made me go "ooh" Doesn't mean I'll put up with you Don't you dare come back Can't u see I wont take that? I ain't crying over you Better fill your head up like I told you Why'd you cry For the guy Say goodbye Runaway Why'd you cry For the guy Say goodbye I said ok, 'cos... Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head Because I do boy, And it's cool boy And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed Because of you boy, Such a fool boy (such a fool) Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head Because I do boy (I do) And it's cool boy (yeah it's cool) And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed Because of you boy, (I do boy) Such a fool boy (such a fool)

INFORMATION:

Written by Brian Higgins/ Miranda Cooper/ Tim Powell/ Nick Coler/ Niara Scarlett/ Keisha Buchanan/ Mutya Buena/ Heidi Range.

About the song, Keisha Buchanan said: "'Hole in the Head', basically, we didn't think about it. When we went into the studio it was pretty much the same thing. We just went in and Brian Higgins had already written the chorus for 'Hole and the Head' and we just went in and wrote our verses and that was it. And obviously the meaning of the song is basically about a girl or a guy being in a relationship with someone and then breaking up. It's like you're upset for a while but you get over it and you realise that you can do better. That's basically it.

If you don't believe that girl groups can have edge, check out Hole in the Head. This track is soulful, feisty and totally catchy all at the same time. Kidz World

It's infectious, catchy and above all contains the now familiar Sugababes trademark attitude. This is amplified by the stormy, yet cool mood of the lyrics about a relationship bust-up and the fact they don't care anyway. All three girls sound great on the vocals with simple but effective multi-layered harmonies. Musically, the various bursts of guitar and trademark reverse cymbals sound great with a synth counter rhythm going on. The rhythm is almost ska like in its composition and has a slightly dreamy quality with multi-layered vocals in the chorus. Great song. Daniel Gee

From UK garage they may
have come, but the Sugababes inexorable journey to the very heart of the
mainstream is one of the most satisfying pop phenomenons. Difficult to see how
they can again top the majesty of 'Freak Like Me' of course, but 'Hole In The
Head' nonetheless showcases their twin strengths. For one, a great choice of
material. For another, their talent for singing the most upbeat tune like a
motorway service station cashier speaking through a perspex vent. It's a trick
that works excellently here: kind of an I will survive sort of song, 'Hole In
The Head' taps into the driving guitar-led rhythm so popularised by Basement
Jaxx, adapting it to their own ends, and doing so very well indeed. Will work
even better, one would think, with a display of the trio's inept
Bananarama-esque dancing in big shoes. NME
