String Bean Jean

(albüm: Of Peace, Quiet And Monsters - 2012)

I got my fingers dirty at the school of rock
I got my fingers dirty, so I took a walk
I went up to the country park
And hung around till after dark
And the girls got home
Till the girls got home

Did I tell you about 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 go to work
And she works all night
Yeah, the girl's alright

The girls have got a house that's like a caravan
And it's like a holiday whenever you go round
We always have a laugh
And then we all get in the bath
To save on the electric bill
Me and Jo and Phil

I had to leave them in the morning
I left the keys around the way
I had to go to work
I had to leave them in the morning
I left the keys my down in the caf'
I had to catch a bus

Jo was short of cash, I had to give her some
But I didn't really mind cause I was fit for once
So we paid the electric bill and got the shopping
And we 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 said: "Girl, 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

I had to leave them in the morning
I left the keys around the way
I had to go to work
I had to leave them in the morning
I left the keys my down in the caf'
I had to catch a bus
