Lyrics The Fratellis

The Fratellis

She's Not Gone Yet But She's Leaving

Well she's halfway over this hard on son

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

And she's quite sure she's not the only one

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

Well there's a quiver up her backbone, dogs in the dust

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

And she'll take what she needs and she'll do what she must

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

There's a raw bone whisper underneath the cover

Louder than a dead man's drum

There's a joke that they told her when she got much older

When she knew just what she'd become

Oh let me tell ya that she's...

One part evil, three-fifths blind

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

And she's oh so delicate and still don't mind

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

Well there's a chance that she knows where the bodies are kept

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

And she still don't remember the tears that she wept

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

There's a raw bone whisper underneath the cover

Louder than a dead man's drum

There's a joke that they told her when she got much older

When she knew just what she'd become

Oh let me tell ya now...

Well she's all too generous with my time

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

And she knows that injustice is no real crime

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

And I will always remember the way that she crawled

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

When I throw up in the rain she pretends she's appalled

She's not gone yet but she's leaving

There's a raw bone whisper underneath the cover

Louder than a dead man's drum

There's a joke that they told her when she got much older

When she knew just what she'd become
