BELLE and SEBASTIAN lyrics : "String Bean Jean"

I got my fingers dirty at the school of rock
Yeah I got my fingers dirty so I took a walk
I went up to the country park and hung around till after dark

Till the girls got home
Till the girls got home


Did I tell you 'bout the one I know, she's on the rag
She spent the summer day inside her sleeping bag
Yeah she spent the summer day inside until it's time to work

And she works all night
Cause the girl's all right


The girls have got a house that's like a caravan
And it's like your holidays whenever you go round
And we always have a laugh and then we all get in the bath

To save on the leccy bill
Me & Jo & Phil'


I had to leave them in the morning
I left the keys around the way
I had to catch a bus

I had to leave them in the morning
I left the keys down in the caf'
I had to go to work


And when Jo was short of cash I had to give her some
But I didn't really mind cause I was fit for once

So she paid the leccy bill and got the shopping and she still had
Some for the cinema
So we all went out


She asked me "Do I need to lose a bit of weight?"
And I told her "Don't be stupid 'cause you're looking great"

And I call her String Bean Jean because the label on her jeans says
Seven to eight years old - well that's pretty small
Seven to eight years old - that's pretty small

Seven to eight years old - that's pretty small
Seven to eight years old
