The Girl Doesn't Get It Lyrics - Belle And Sebastian

Well the girl doesn't get it 

And you can't ever tell her 

She will go with whoever wants her 

It's a myth that they're selling 

That there's one perfect fella 

Take the pick of the cherries - go slow! 

There's a world through the front door 

There are people who need more 

There is love in the supermarket 

I got hopes for the future 

And it doesn't need money 

And it doesn't need two-faced liars

One face is smiling 

Telling us to be afraid 

Painting a world of darkness 

But the other face is hidden 

And the eyes are looking back in time 

Gazing out on a fading empire 

You're alone in the dark night 

Sitting down with your worries 

'Cause your glorious youth got fucked up 

You're a train in the siding 

You're a car in a pileup 

You should dance till your heart is joyful 

I don't want to be aloof 

Wear the glasses of untruth 

I just want to become immortal 

Photos 

They'll take profits over people 

They will make the country great again 

Just as long as it's white and ugly 

Fear the immigrant workforce 

Fear the kids raised on the internet 

They are scared if they can't control you 

Are you living or waiting 

For the time to get better? 

Between sorrow and nothing, choose pain 

If compassion was honoured 

All our dumb human problems 

Would belong in a bin marked history 

We will shake hands politely 

Feel the pull of attraction 

'Cause love is our consolation
