Lyrics The Whitlams

The Whitlams

Melbourne

She paints pictures on the wall

She eats all of the garden

And has an aversion to conviction

And she calls her dog "the bear"

In love with this girl

And with her town as well

Walking 'round the rainy city

What a pity there's things to do at home

She paints pictures on the wall

I awake to see the feelings

from the night before

She eats all of the garden, it's a jungle out there

And we won't return by dawn

If I had three lives

I'd marry her in two

I'm dreaming of a time

That we sit when the music stops

She has an aversion to conviction

She's more confused than ever

Won't pay her fines and wonders when the cops will get her

She calls her dog "the bear"

And walks me with him to the corner

In her pyjamas
