The Boy With The Arab Strap - Belle & Sebastian
Written by：Belle/Sebastian
A mile and a half on a bus takes a long time
The odour 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

Hovering silence from you is a giveaway
Squalor and smoke's not your style
I don't like this place
We better go

Then I compare notes with your older sister

I am a lazy gett she is as pure as the cold driven snow

What did you learn from your time in the solitary
Cell of your mind
There was noises distractions from anything good

And the old prison food

Colour my life with the chaos of trouble

'Cause anything's better than posh isolation
I missed the bus

You were laid on your back
With the boy with the arab strap

With the boy from the arab strap

Something to speak of the way you are feeling
To crowds there assembled
Do you ever feel you have gone too far

Everyone suffers in silence a burden
The man who drives minicabs down in Old Compton
The Asian man

With his love hate affair
With his racist clientele

A central location for you is a must
As you stagger about making free with your lewd and lascivious boasts

We all know you are soft 'cause we've all seen you dancing
We all know you are hard 'cause we all saw you drinking from noon
Until noon again

You're the boy with the filthy laugh

You're the boy with the arab strap

Strapped to the table with suits from the shelter shop
Comic celebrity takes a back seat as the cigarette catches

And sets off the smoke alarm

What do you make of the cool set in London
You're constantly updating your hit parade of your ten biggest wanks

She's a waitress and she's got style
