The Dark Of The Matinée |
Take your white finger |
Slide the nail under the top and bottom buttons of my blazer |
Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties |
And I’m not to look at you in the shoe |
But the eyes find the eyes |
Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files |
You must follow, leave this academic factory |
You will find me in the matinée, the dark of the matinée |
It’s better in the matinée, the dark of the matinée is mine |
Yes, it’s mine |
Time every journey to bump into you accidentally |
I charm you and tell you of the boys I hate, all the girls I hate |
All the words I hate, all the clothes I hate |
How I’ll never be anything I hate |
You smile, mention something that you like |
Oh, how you’d have a happy life if you did the things you like |
Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files |
You must follow, leave this academic factory |
You will find me in the matinée, the dark of the matinée |
It’s better in the matinée, the dark of the matinée is mine |
Yes, it’s mine |
So I’m on BBC Two now |
Telling Terry Wogan how I made it |
And what I made is unclear now |
But his deference is and his laughter is |
My words and smile are so easy now |
Yes, it’s easy now |
Yes, it’s easy now |
Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files |
You must follow, leave this academic factory |
You will find me in the matinée, dark of the matinée |
It’s better in the matinée, the dark of the matinée |
You will find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files |
You must follow, leave this academic factory |
You will find me in the matinée, the dark of the matinée |
Better in the matinée, the dark of the matinée is mine |
Yes, it’s mine |
