Take your white finger
Slide the nail under
the top and bottom buttons of
my blazer
Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties And I'm
not to look at you in the shoe
but the eyes
find the eyes
find me and follow me through corridors, refectories
and files You must follow leave this academic factory
You’ll find me in the matinee
The dark of the matinee
is better in the matinee
The dark of the matinee is mine …. is mine
time every journey
to bump into you
accidentally I
charm you and tell you
of the boys I hate
All the girls I hate
All the words I hate
All clothes I hate
How I'll never be
anything I hate
You smile, mention something that you like
How you'd have a happy life
if you did the things you like
find me and follow me through corridors, refectories
and files You must follow leave this academic factory
You’ll find me in the matinee
The dark of the matinee
is better in the matinee
The dark of the matinee is mine …. is mine
So I'm on BBC2 now,
telling Terry Wogan how
I made it and
What I made is unclear,
but his deference is
and his laughter is
My words and smile are so easy now
Yes, It's easy now (2x)
find me and follow me through corridors, refectories
and files You must follow leave this academic factory
You’ll find me in the matinee
The dark of the matinee
is better in the matinee
The dark of the matinee is mine …. is mine
(2x)
