When she says that her eyelashes catch her sweat, I think shes saying that she has a beautiful body, but not because it's asthetically pleasing necessarily, more because it's functional and that there are lots of people who don't have bodies that work. |

I thought it was to do with the press not leaving him alone and commenting on everything he did. So, in a sense, they were sort of 'raping' his privacy. |

Love this song. Someone clearly has something rushed to say, but wants to say it in a polite and attractive manner so writes it in a postcard. I think cxtoxt is right, definitely a case of unrequited love in some senses. |

nikolas, COMPLETELY out of it. What kind of head do you give if you get grass stains on your knees? OVER ANALYSATION. It's simple. About a relationship which goes through bad and good, and people are let down but they have a good time anyway. Reminds me of hot summers and parks and waterfights :) |

I love the 'drink carrot juice and grow' bit. Though, the lyrics are a bit wrong on this, i think it's 'incidentally, do you know if he's out of love?' Maybe about a boy, who fell in love with someone else and dumped her. |

the idea that you have a 'summer skin' , for the hot weather and sunburn and salt and sea, is a really beautiful idea, and when september comes, you peel of your skin, step out of it, end your holiday romances and work until the next summer. Lovely song. |

I thought it meant that sex was all there was to the relationship, the only thing really keeping it together was the purely physical aspect although he desperately wants it not to be. Hence, the 'bedshaped' |

I imagined it about him having a prostitute as a girlfriend, who is caught up in the horror of her work and can't really make the relationship work because of this. It's because he says 'when you come back in from nowhere, do you ever think of me?' Really good song, so powerful.. |

| Belle & Sebastian – Dear Catastrophe Waitress Lyrics

I really got for some reason, when he says 'I'm sorry if he hit you with a full can of Coke'
; that maybe it's a double meaning? Like, he hits her with an object ( a can of coca cola, i imagine that would leave some nasty bruises) but also, that he hits her with a nose full of cocaine, which makes him angry perhaps? Just a thought. |
