Belle & Sebastian - String Bean Jean lyrics

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
