Belle & Sebastian – Dress Up In You

Dress Up In You

I�m the singer, I�m the singer in the band

You�re the loser, I won�t dismiss you out of hand

Cos you�ve got a beautiful face

It will take you places

You kept running

You�ve got money, you�ve got fame

Every morning I see your picture from the train

Now you�re an actress!

So says your résumé

You�re made of card

You couldn�t act your way out of a paper bag

You got lucky, you ain�t talking to me now

Little Miss Plucky

Pluck your eyebrows for the crowd

Get on the airplane

You give me stomach pain

I wish that you were here

We would have had a lot to talk about

We had a deal there

We nearly signed it with our blood�

An understanding

I thought that you would keep your word

I�m disappointed

I�m aggravated

It�s a fault I have, I know

When things don�t go my way I have to

Blow up in the face of my rivals

I swear and I rant, I make quite an arrival

The men are surprised by the language

They act so discreet, they are hypocrites so f*ck them too!

I always loved you

You always had a lot of style

I�d hate to see you on the pile

Of �nearly-made-it� s

You�ve got the essence, dear

If I could have a second skin

I�d probably dress up in you

You�re a star now, I am fixing people�s nails

I�m knitting jumpers, I�m working after hours

I�ve got a boyfriend, I�ve got a feeling that he�s seeing someone else

He always had thing for you as well

Blow in the face of my rivals

I swear and I rant, I make quite an arrival

The men are surprised by the language

They act so discreet, they are hypocrites forget them

So f*ck them too!
