Fairytales
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hold her hand in Dorothy Perkins
Order a Big Mac; let her pinch all the gherkins
Don't they know this is all part of modern romance?
Open mouths, touching tongues
Into town on the bus they were feeling no restraint
But the looks they were getting were strange
Open mouths, raised eyebrows
Can they not remember how it felt to live young?
Oh man! Those days must've been fun!
Fooling around, messing about...
Utter nonsense, a bit of fun
Maybe later they will find a convenient bike shed
To try out what they learnt in Sex Ed
Utter nonsense, a waste of time
They should be home reading books to enrich their future
And not the bloody Karma Sutra!
Watch as they try to write a fairytale
Sharing elegant kisses, leaving delicate trails of
Chapstick, Tic Tacs and cigarettes
They're skipping school but let's not forget
That these are the lessons that matter the most
The optimal method of removing your clothes
When you're sneaking into woods in the afternoon
Knowing full well you'll be in paradise soon
Open mouths, touching tongues
Into town on the bus they were feeling no restraint
But the looks they were getting were strange
Open mouths, raised eyebrows
Can they not remember how it felt to live young?
Oh Jesus! Those days must've been fun!
Fooling around, messing about...
Watch as they try to write a fairytale
Sharing elegant kisses, leaving delicate trails of
Chapstick, Tic Tacs and cigarettes
They're skipping school but let's not forget
That these are the lessons that matter the most
The optimal method of removing your clothes
When you're sneaking into woods in the afternoon
Knowing full well you'll be in paradise soon
Hold her hand in Dorothy Perkins
Order a Big Mac; let her pinch all the gherkins
Don't they know this is the height of modern romance?
