Camera Obscura - Number One Son lyrics
[Camera Obscura - Number One Son lyrics]
We had sparkling wine
Oh, yes, it was dark trees
Could not be identified
The girl you were with
Did she have you on your knees?
I shut my mouth, my ears, I
Don't want to hear you, please
Now we're skipping school
Going to listen to records
Wrapped up in mohair, dissing your elders
I dip a chocolate finger
Take a sip from my cup
Remember what your dad said
"button your lip"
You've got to toughen up for him
He's the kind who will do you in
I should know that it's no fun
You will never be Number One number One Son
God I've tried to help but
I think I just hinder
Find another girl, could she ever be kinder?
Love unlike lightning can strike you twice
I don't know much, but here's my advice
You've got to toughen up for him
He's the kind who will do you in
I should know that it's no fun
You will never be Number One number One Son
