Lyrics

[00:17.45] I'm writing these words like the fool that I am
[00:20.81] Trying to say something good like the person
[00:24.74] But it's all just a sham 'cos the writer I am not
[00:28.80] Could say anything, you'd believe them
[00:32.85] Just your A-typical Boy-girl-girl-boy androgynous
[00:37.15] Play on a publican's decoy'
[00:41.00] Cos I had to drop out 'cos the Art School was sad and
[00:45.49] If you believe all of that you're a bigger fool than me
[00:56.01] The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much
[01:00.36] They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice
[01:04.06] They aren't supposed to mean that much
[01:10.01] Lyrics mean nothing, don't right any wrongs
[01:13.41] In fact I'm not having them on this
[01:17.97] You say they mean nothing just gobbledy-gook
[01:21.42] Butjust look at yourself you're not clever enough
[01:25.47] Understanding the truth, you are so out of touch
[01:29.42] You believe all of this, you can't see it's a spoof
[01:33.52] Understand all the words when they don't even rhyme
[01:37.52] And I'm losing the rhythm and the whole thing's getting wierder and wierder
[01:48.39] The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much
[01:52.44] They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice
[01:56.55] They aren't supposed to mean that much
[02:04.56] The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much
[02:08.52] They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice
[02:12.52] They aren't supposed to mean that much
[02:18.32] They all believe me
[02:26.32] It's all so easy now
[02:38.76] The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much
[02:42.71] They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice
[02:46.88] They aren't supposed to mean that much
[02:54.79] The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much
[02:58.79] They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice
[03:02.83] They aren't supposed to mean that much
