Came down from the North
You know the way they do
Got a cheeky smile
Sexy Northerner

Hanging round the clubs
Gets in them for free
Don't know how he does it
Sexy Northerner

Drinks a lot of beer
At least he doesn't smoke
Hasn't lost his accent
Sexy Northerner

How does he do it?
How does he do it?
Acts like he's got nothing to prove
Sexy Northerner

It's not all football and fags
No it's not all football and fags

Don't you dare imply
that it's grim up North
He went last weekend
Sexy Northerner

In the latest clothes
Wears a posh cologne
Got a lot of pride
Sexy Northerner

Says he wants a job
Something interesting
like a graphic designer
Sexy Northerner

How does he do it?
How does he do it?
Acts like he's got nothing to prove
Sexy Northerner

It's not all football and fags
No it's not all football and fags

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
