Belle & Sebastian : Storytelling
Who knows, this mouse might yet roar...
It's the grandest of follies, surely, for Belle & Sebastian to release their half instrumental soundtrack to Todd 'Happiness' Solondz's poorly received arthouse movie about ego-crazed writers shagging each other when, somewhere in the world, a pub is showing football. The very concept of this album strikes black dread in the hearts of all but the most hardened fan of...

Belle and Sebastian - Storytelling Lyrics
Belle and Sebastian - Scooby Driver Lyrics
I'm coming over in the wrong direction
I only want to be the center of your attention
For long enough to show you
I'm worth the trouble that you take
Belle and Sebastian - Wandering Alone Lyrics
Wandering alone on the ridge of a coast
Lost to the world he had known as a boy
He knows his lover lies south in the city
Belle and Sebastian - I Don't Want to Play Football Lyrics
I don't want to play football
I don't understand the rules of the game
I don't want to play football
I don't understand the thrill of the running, catching, throwing

Belle and Sebastian - Storytelling Lyrics
Picture a scene in your mind, look at all the people
And take note of the setting behind
Listen, watch and wait, a plot begins to take shape

Hike out for the highest peaks
All the children watch the cricket
And they never wash for weeks

Belle and Sebastian - Dialogue Mandingo Cliche Lyrics
"It was confessional, yet dishonest. Jane pretends to be horrified by the sexuality that she in fact fetishises. She subsumes herself to the myth of black male sexual potency, but then doesnt follow through. She thinks she respects afro-Americans and thinks they're cool and exotic, what a notch he'd make in her belt! But, of course, it all comes down to Mandingo cliche. And he calls her on it.In classic, racist tradition she demonises then runs for cover. But then how could she behave otherwise? She's just a spoilt suburban white girl with a Benetton rainbow complex. It's just my opinion, I mean what do i know?"
Belle and Sebastian - Dialogue Jerseys Where Its At Lyrics
This is a great school. I don't care what anybody says. I mean it's not perfect, but like the people are really cool. Like the teachers and kids. They really care and all. And I know that they make fun of New Jersey all the time, but I don't care. 'Cause they're just snubs. 'Cause Jersey is where America's at! Yeah!

I'll make another movie
The same one as the year before
I'll take a tired idea
And put it in the hands of Hollywood
