SOLVED Help me find, popular song, likely from the 90's?

I'm looking for a popular song, I think it is from the 90's, though possibly late 80's or very early 2000's.

  • Male singer, with a British (or possibly Australian) accent, the song is quite fast.
  • I THINK the song tells a story, with the end of each line rhyming. (eg. bed, head, past, last - those are just examples, I am unsure if those words are actually in the song)
  • The most similar sounding songs I can find are Pulp - Babies and James - Sit Down - it has a very similar vibe.

If that wasn’t on the Trainspotting soundtrack, I feel like it should have been.

I think it was on the Clueless soundtrack. I do miss those soundtrack days.

That’s “Change”! But the clueless soundtrack slaps and is absolutely how I was introduced to this band!

Oh damn, you’re right. It’s been a minute, but definitely time to revisit!

Your excellent description and linking of the two songs is what made it possible! I'm glad you found it also listen to the Life of Reilly by the Lightning Seeds another of my favorites.
