Mornington Crescent
Belle And Sebastian
Text File
Bb D#
Mornington crescent, I think of you
Rain in the southeast, men feeling blue
Men in their bowlers, kids with their spats
Bb Gm
Ladies with chauffeurs, dogs wearing hats and jackets
GmM7 Gm7 C7
Rich apartments, old punk posters, tartan garments
D# Bm D# Bm
I love the exquisite array, I love the camp as camp parade
Cm Dm F F7
The possibilities suggest themselves to me
Bb D#
Mornington crescent, the sun in the east
I've got a job on for a senegalese
rich arbitrator in African law
To paint his apartment
Gm GmM7
strip down the walls came down between us lately
Gm7 C7 D#
Lust and want and need just caved in is it wise?
Bm D# Bm
The answer's no, it never is but since you've asked
Cm Dm F Am
We pause thoughtfully for twenty seconds reprieve
G#m C
Then it's off with the briefs
Mornington crescent, sin is my game
We'll all be lined up, irrelevant fame
Next to the broker, the nurse and the drunk
I was a joker, the wannabe punk, that got lucky
Had a good time, life became fruitless, egotistic
Swine to all your friends, all the ladies and the men
The possibilities suggest themselves to me, we're a little too free
