Lyrics

[00:01.28] I'm all alone, this is a holiday
[00:08.29] Some bloody holiday
[00:12.40] My friends have gone away
[00:17.64] They're of the temporary sort, I think
[00:25.32] I will be better without
[00:29.50] As long as you let me out
[00:36.64] To taste the air beside the river
[00:42.58] I pick the soundtrack with immaculate care
[00:53.10] Such a lot rests upon it
[00:57.14] My life upon a song
[01:02.15] You don't know how much I need
[01:07.76] Musician, please take heed
[01:16.86]
[01:24.23] I thought I might just write a letter
[01:29.16] Anything to stay away
[01:32.59] From books and lessons today
[01:37.35] Besides it's part of my induction
[01:41.39] Into the literate world
[01:45.40] I am a literate girl
[01:50.29] I string the words together softly
[01:55.09] I lay my love upon you with each line
[02:03.18] A gift of improvising
[02:06.42] Removes me from revising
[02:09.75] I made a daisy chain from
[02:12.83] Phrase, verse, and punctuation
[02:15.93] I'll kick this mood off with a change of scene
[02:22.50] I bought a leotard and go to the gym
[02:29.06] I couldn't get away with wearing it last summer
[02:36.22] But I lost a lot of weight
[02:39.21] I think it's down to leaving meat out of my diet as a rule
[02:46.62] I won't buy it 'cause it's cruel
[02:51.13]
[02:49.97] And if the nighttime threatens me with pain
[02:56.38] I will give in to lust
[02:58.89] I will do what I must
[03:02.52] I've got a number of a girl I know
[03:08.28] Who gets hallucinogens from a pair of hooligans
[03:16.16] I'll take a dose, I don't mind trying
[03:20.83] She lets me stay there while I leave the ground
[03:30.08] Old episodes of Minder
[03:33.24] I snuggle up beside her
[03:38.06] Think that I'll stay til morning
[03:43.64] She's got me started yawning
[03:53.90]
