Rough Trade Records - Musician, Please Take Heed lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm all alone This is a holiday Some bloody holiday My friends have gone away They're of the temporary sort I think I will be better without As long as you let me out To taste the air beside the river I pick the soundtrack with immaculate care Such a lot rests upon it My life upon a song You don't know how much I need Musician, please take heed [Verse 2] I thought I might Just write a letter Anything to stay away From books and lessons today Besides, it's part of my induction Into the literate world I am a literate girl I string the words together softly I lay my love upon you with each line A gift of improvising Removes me from revising I made a daisy-chain from Phrase verse and punctuation [Bridge] I'll kick this mood off with a change of scene I bought a leotard and go to the gym I couldn't get away With wearing it last summer But I've lost a lot of weight I think it's down to leaving meat Out of my diet as a rule I won't buy it cause it's cruel [Verse 3] And if the night time Threatens me with pain I will give in to lust I will do what I must I've got a number of a girl I know Who gets hallucinogens From a pair of hooligans I'll take a dose, I don't mind trying She lets me stay there while I leave the ground Old episodes of Minder I snuggle up beside her Think that I'll stay till morning She's got me started yawning
