Lyrics
Charmed I'm sure
But what on Earth are you saying?
It's happened before
And I just leap on the bus and ride away
It's got me paralysed this time
Just like I never thought it could
Like I always knew you would
The moment that you cameIt doesn't matter what time you get home
Coz everybody wants to meet you
Everybody's at your feet
Everybody thinks you're swellSo now it's "au revoir"
And a curse on the ocean
Only I got a notion
I'll be with you again
You know I will
When you're all alone
On the streets of a far-off town
Well remember when they're falling down
They're just like you and that's beautifulIt doesn't matter 'bout the streets you're walking down
Coz everybody wants to see you
People even want to be like you
Everybody thinks you're swell
Everybody thinks you're swell
Everybody thinks you're swell

Swelling with Pride

I wish I could see her. -

4Nov2004 10:44 AM (18 years 144 days ago)This is, for me, Pat at his most subtle. It took me some time to pick up on the poignant subtext. Initially it sounds like a straight forward ode but beneath the complimentary surface is a tale of loss and regret. Easily my favourite Jazz Butcher song.
"They're just like you and that's beautiful".
