Me And The Major Lyrics - Belle And Sebastian

Me and the Major could become close friends cause we 

Get on the same train and he wants to talk to me 

Me and the Major could become close friends cause we 

Get on the same train and he wants to talk 

But no there's too much history, too much biography between us 

Me and the Major don't see eye to eye on a 

Number of things, he'll take a guy like me oh yeah 

Me and the Major don't see eye to eye on a 

Number of things, he'll take a guy like me 

And put him in the army 

Cause the Queen's own army makes a man of you 

He doesn't understand and he doesn't try 

He knows there's something missing and he knows it's you and I 

We're the younger generation, we grew up fast 

All the others did drugs 

They're taking it out on us 

They're taking it out on us 

They're taking it out on us 

Me and the Major are from different worlds, but if 

I get stuck in the lift it's always with a toff 

Me and the Major are from different worlds, but if 

I get stuck in the lift it's always with a man 

Of noble standing who looks down on me like I was never born 

I think the Major's going quite insane, he goes 

Along the pavement and comes back again, oh yeah 

I think the Major's going quite insane, he goes 

Along the pavement and comes back again 

Like he is on parade, he is on parade 

At least he thinks so 

He's swapping his tent for a sheltered home 

He doesn't have a family and he's living alone 

He remembers all the punks and the hippies too 

And he remembers Roxy Music in seventy-two 

He doesn't understand and he doesn't try 

He knows there's something missing and he knows it's you and I 

We're the younger generation, we grew up fast 

All the others did drugs 

They're taking it out on us 

They're taking it out on us 

They're taking it out on us 

I want a dance, I want a drink of whisky so I 

Forget the Major and go up the town oh boy 

I want a dance, I want a drink of whisky so I 

Forget the Major and go up the town 

Because the snow is falling 

Yeah the snow is falling 

The snow is falling
