The Party Line - Belle and Sebastian
How did I get here,
I heard a rumour
From your girlfriend's sister
that you knew me
And you end up dancing close up to me
I know that I broke the rule already
She asked me if I'm single going steady
I just trod my head
and took a step off into the dark
Standing on the block of my tires
Don't dance on the lights
cause the bears eat the pretty ones
We are like the islands divided
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
There is nobody here but your body dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Stay
You stay
I am on this morning quite distracted
The talk of all begins and our emotion
I am leaving many people feeling
Worse than before
People like to drive the cars and smoke up
People like to sit inside and toke up
People like to shoot
at things with borrowed guns
And knives
I am happy to look and run
Where were you
when I was king in this part of town
Now the days of glory are gone
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
There is nobody here
but your body dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
There is nobody here
but your body dear
Nobody here but your body dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
There is nobody here
but your body dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of the party line
There is nobody here
but your body dear
Nobody here but your body dear
