Hobart Paving Lyrics

Cover art for Hobart Paving lyrics by Saint Etienne

I like to imagine it's a beautifully written condemnation of a poorly maintained railway station.

Hence the line "and baby, don't forget to catch me", and a call to Hobart Paving (a Croydon based builder) that it might be time to repave the platform, before she slips over when her eyesight is affected by the spitting rain.

To paraphrase Morrissey "Network Rail, so much to answer for"
