[00:04.16]Written by:Belle/Sebastian
[00:21.98]A mile and a half on a bus takes a long time
[00:25.27]The odour of old prison food takes a long time to pass you by
[00:35.49]Day upon day of this wandering gets you down
[00:38.85]Nobody gives you a chance or a dollar in this old town
[00:48.99]Hovering silence from you is a giveaway
[00:52.16]Squalor and smoke's not your style
[00:53.94]I don't like this place
[00:55.58]We better go
[01:02.51]Then I compare notes with your older sister
[01:05.82]I am a lazy gett she is as pure as the cold driven snow
[01:29.51]What did you learn from your time in the solitary
[01:32.67]Cell of your mind
[01:33.79]There was noises distractions from anything good
[01:39.07]And the old prison food
[01:43.0]Colour my life with the chaos of trouble
[01:46.28]'Cause anything's better than posh isolation
[01:49.6]I missed the bus
[01:52.59]You were laid on your back
[01:54.270004]With the boy with the arab strap
[02:01.04]With the boy from the arab strap
[02:56.85]Something to speak of the way you are feeling
[03:00.14]To crowds there assembled
[03:01.35]Do you ever feel you have gone too far
[03:10.43]Everyone suffers in silence a burden
[03:13.6]The man who drives minicabs down in Old Compton
[03:17.02]The Asian man
[03:19.85]With his love hate affair
[03:21.74]With his racist clientele
[03:30.45]A central location for you is a must
[03:33.25]As you stagger about making free with your lewd and lascivious boasts
[03:43.77]We all know you are soft 'cause we've all seen you dancing
[03:46.89]We all know you are hard 'cause we all saw you drinking from noon
[03:50.75]Until noon again
[03:55.16]You're the boy with the filthy laugh
[04:01.96]You're the boy with the arab strap
[04:37.65]Strapped to the table with suits from the shelter shop
[04:41.2]Comic celebrity takes a back seat as the cigarette catches
[04:48.21]And sets off the smoke alarm
[04:51.93]What do you make of the cool set in London
[04:55.29]You're constantly updating your hit parade of your ten biggest wanks
[05:01.99]She's a waitress and she's got style
