Belle & Sebastian : The Boy With The Arab Strap
By rights, of course, they should be failures. Sometimes it seems they'd be happier that way ...
BY RIGHTS, OF COURSE, THEY SHOULD BE failures. Sometimes it seems they'd be happier that way. Check the fuzzy and obscured 'candid' band shots on the cover, or the winsome sleevenotes, or the pervading air of indie sanctimony that ensures they can no longer be even interviewed, or that precious, precious tone of voice. Belle & Sebastian are, in essence, a peculiar...

Belle and Sebastian - The Boy With The Arab Strap Lyrics
Belle and Sebastian - A Summer Wasting Lyrics
Summer in winter
Winter in springtime
You heard the birds sing
Everything will be fine
Belle and Sebastian - The Boy With The Arab Strap Lyrics
A mile and a half on a bus takes a long time
The odor of old prison food takes a long time to pass you by
Day upon day of this wandering gets you down
Nobody gives you a chance or a dollar in this old town
More Belle and Sebastian - The Boy With The Arab Strap Lyrics
Belle and Sebastian - Sleep The Clock Around Lyrics
And the moment will come when composure returns
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
Belle and Sebastian - Simple Things Lyrics
If you want me, I'll be there
A boy to deal with all your problems
But part of the deal
Is for you to feel something
Belle and Sebastian - Seymour Stein Lyrics
Seymour Stein, I've been lonely
Caught a glimpse of someone's face
It were mine and I'd been crying
Belle and Sebastian - It Could Have Been A Brilliant Career Lyrics
He had a stroke at the age of 24
It could have been a brilliant career
Painting lines in a school that was too well known
Painting lines with a friend that had gone before
More Belle and Sebastian - It Could Have Been A Brilliant Career Lyrics
Belle and Sebastian - Is It Wicked Not To Care? Lyrics
Is it wicked not to care when they say that youâre mistaken
Thinking hopes and lots of dreams that aren't there?
Is it wicked not to care, when you've wasted many hours
Talking endlessly to anyone thatâs there?
Belle and Sebastian - Ease Your Feet In The Sea Lyrics
Ease you're feet off in the sea my darling it's the place to be
Take your shoes off, curl your toes, I will frame this moment in time
Troubles come and troubles go, the trouble that we used to know
Will stay with us till we get old, will stay with us till
Belle and Sebastian - Dirty Dream Number Two Lyrics
I'm lucky, I can open the door and I can walk down the street
Unlucky, I've got no place to go and so I follow my feet
A choice is facing you, a healthy dose of pain
A choice is facing you as you stare through the rain
Belle and Sebastian - Chickfactor Lyrics
What was it I saw in New York?
Iâm not the same anymore
How will I hide these feelings inside?
Call my girl on the phone
Belle and Sebastian - The Rollercoaster Ride Lyrics
Hey people, looking out the window at the city below
Hey people, looking out the window, full of fun and sorrow
Hey people, looking out the window at the city below
Hey people, looking out the window, you'll be gone tomorrow
