Elbow – Scattered Black And Whites Lyrics 19 years ago
It is about chilhood memories -

Been climbing trees...
messing around as a kid when the world was much more innocent. falling over cutting yourself, getting dirty playing football or something similair and coming home when it's getting dark

she scrubs my hair...
Mum in the kitchen cooking dinner finding out what he'd been up to today and the young boy telling her with the obvious exagerations that kids tend to do

crosswords through the...
might be his dad doing the crossword on the toilet

while someone sings...
I remember everytime the news came on that someone in the family starts singing the theme music - der der der da etc

my sister buzzes...
the smell that makes him go back in his mind to the magical world of his childhood

I comeback hear...

reverting back to more happy,secure times and finding huge comfort a world away from his current life

a high back chair...
could be his grandad or maybe his dad

the line - flitting between short trousers and full dress uniform

sybolises a passing of time between short trousers (summer) full dress (winter/autumn)

scattered black and whites

various memories like b&w photos in the mind
