Lyrics Belle and Sebastian

Belle and Sebastian

Calculating Bimbo

A lack of understanding

You took for being lazy

I was just being lazy

I'm even doing it now

I know that you have saved me

I love that you have saved me

Save your pennies careful

Let both blue eyes be watchful

It's best to forget freedom

It's best to be enslaved

It's better still to love first

It's harder still to love first

You're my winter queen that disappeared

Your hands grew cold

You ran a mile from my wings(?)

I still heard you had a full-flown view

With lots of time

And notebook full of the finest creamy, rich-girl parchment pages

Slowly filled with all your passing days

Every sacred word paints a picture

Bigger were his muscles

? his ?

But when you are in trouble

And when you are uptight

I get the midnight phone call

I'm your captain for the long haul

If someone else is near me

You scuttle up the pavement

It's no one that I care for

I pause for an effect

You calculating bimbo

I wish you'd let the past go
