David Watts Lyrics

Lyric discussion by AKARebel 

Cover art for David Watts lyrics by Jam, The

is david watts gay? "His is so gay and fancy free" which you could let go untill And all the girls in the neighborhood "Try to go out with David Watts The try their best but can’t succeed"

Nope, in this case gay still means carefree and happy and that :)

I agree, but note the last few lines:

And all the girls ... try their best but can't succeed For he is of pure and noble breed

ant then a sort of significant pause (that seems to be missing in The Jam version) that I believe mean exactly that David doesn’t seem to be intersted in girls...
