Lazy Line Painter Jane

Belle And Sebastian

Working the village shop


Putting a poster up


Dreaming of anything


Dreaming of the time when you are free from all the trouble you're in





In the mud, on your knees


Trying hard not to please


Anyone, all the time


Being a rebel's fine


But you go all the way to being brutal





You will have a boy tonight


You will have a boy tonight


On the first bus out of town


On the first bus out of town





Let's see your kit for games


All the girls look the same


You are challenging style for running miles


You're running miles in some boys jumper





Boo to the business world!


You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making


Plenty cash


While you are working for the joy of giving





You will have a boy tonight


You will have a boy tonight


And you hope that she will see


And you hope that she will see





You will have a boy tonight


Or maybe you will have a girl tonight


And you hope that she will see


And you hope that she will see





You are in two minds


Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum


About a dose of thrush you got while you were licking railings





But you read in a book


That you got free in Boots


There are lotions, there are potions


You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes





Lazy Jane, all the time


Painting lines


You are sleeping at bus stops


Wondering how you got your name


And what you're going to do about it





You will have a boy tonight


You will have a boy tonight


And you hope that she will see


And you hope that she will see
