He spoke a script
dipped in the sort
and taught a major ?????

It's all a trick,
the slicks back slimey arms have got a water wage
He's got a laugh like a crackling wire
and he wants to put the bite marks on you,
he wants to put the bite marks on you

And you twist my guts
As the only thing that's worth having that as invitations
are his excuses and he said
I am the conductor, put me in the terror pocket

He's in a splint
master in a crafty squint ????? respectable.
Drop a dirty hint if he thinks that he couldn't press you would be unacceptable.

And he has searched through all the pages with his fingers
and covered them with goooooo!
And he wants to put the bite marks on you,
he wants to put them on you and it hurts my back!
thats the only thing that took ?? adoration
is the danger that it lies on its own
and the spill ??????????????????????
and it frightened me to death when he said
I am the conductor, put me in the terror pocket

Cos' ?????? to give me a ticket to a competition!
and i don't know how the odds are stacked
as he's rolling out the running track.

    great song, I think the lyrics are more something like this maybe

    He spoke a script Dipped in the sort of talk to make you keep at bay It’s all a trick The slicked back slimy arms have got a war to wage

    He’s got a laugh like a crackling wire And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put the bite marks on you And you twist my guts

    As the only thing as repelling as his invitations Of a dusky serf And he said “I am the conductor Put me in a terror pocket”

    He never slipped Master in a craft he swept through respectable Drop a dirty hint if he thinks that he could impress you with the unacceptable

    And he has turned through all the pages with his fingers And covered them with goo And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put them on you and it hurts my back

    As the only thing that’s as heavy as the adoration Is the days of hanging out on the town And it’s been a long time around And he frightened me to death when he said “I am the conductor Put me in a terror pocket”

    Cause he’s trying to give me a ticket to a competition And I don’t know why the odds are stacked As he’s rolling out the running track

    It's Alex being paranoid that a smooth guy is trying to seduce his love interest. Great song. I hope they release it on an EP.

    Oi! This song is a favourite worst nightmare to figure out. Any input? I've listened far too many times than it is sane to do so and I am still at a loss for this song's particularities. This is at least sorted out better than it was previously. Alex changes the lyrics too, making it impossible to pin down one way.

    He spoke a script Dipped in the sort of talk to make you keep the gaze It’s all a trick The slicked back slimy arms have got a war to wage

    He’s got a laugh like a crackling wire And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put the bite marks on you And you twist my guts

    As the only thing that’s repelling as his invitations Are his excuses And he said I am the conductor, Put me in a terror pocket

    He did a stint Master in a craft He squint through his spectacle He’d drop a dirty hint if he thinks that he could (can) impress you with the unacceptable

    And he has turned through all the pages with his fingers And covered them with goo And he wants to put the bite marks on you He wants to put them on you and it hurts my back

    As (Because) the only thing that’s as heavy as the adoration Is the days of hanging out on his arm And he spilled with all this sounding alarm And he frightened me to death when he said I am the conductor, Put me in a (the) terror pocket

    Cause he’s trying to give me a ticket to a competition And I don’t know why (how) the odds are stacked As he’s rolling out the running track

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,
