Belle & Sebastian

Belle & Sebastian

I left the school I left my job

You saw me looking like a slob

When I was young you were the only fun in town

Everyone thought it was a shame

For Belle and the boy Sebastian

Belle was ok but oh Sebastian

Went too far again

Crashed his car in the rain

He wants to love and he wants to care

But when the boys are queuing up to tell her she's a star

Poor Sebastian is heading for a fall

Everyone thought it was a shame

For Belle and the boy Sebastian

Everyone thought it was a shame

Belle was ok but oh Sebastian

Went too far again

Crashed his car in the rain

Oh Sebastian wrote his diary that

He would never be young again

But you will

Fellow, you are ill

You'd better take a weight off of your mind and listen

To what other people say

Cause things are going wrong your own way
