laurie shaw – skipped period blues lyrics
you thought he’d got off
with the ballerina who looked just like kate bush
and she could sing “wuthering heights” dead good
mind you, you were smoking drugs
that night, oh in the grizzly between weeks
between summer and september 1st
time was going to do its worst to you
two years of kids converge
as some had done fourth year and some had not
and you met a boy who didn’t take himself so serious
he’s a way out, is he
from your mum’s depression and your dad’s redundancy?
oh, he makes you feel special because
he blushes when he talks to you
but now, there is another
he’s a little bit older
he knows his culture
and he says so sweetly to you, yeah he says
“meet you down in rino
bring the crisps, i’ll bring the vino
and don’t bother changing baby
because i like you in your polo shirt”
before the superglue has dried
on your final year project
sneak out early and come down
“i’ll be hanging around the picnic benches”
so all your friends keep saying
it’s a bit like manhattan
but you don’t know what they mean
i guess because you’ve never been
oh he’s a little less embarr-ssed
to be around you now, he sits with you in computers
and he’s pretty good… well, he’s very good at english
but now, there is another
he’s a little bit older
he knows the right spot on your shoulder
to put his lips and make you wish you were
down at rino
caught between his chinos
sipping chilled pinot grigio
his band’s playing the kino in a month
and you etched your names into the picnic table
because it’s you and him forever
even though forever’s much nearer for him
monday, in computers
you feel like you don’t have to incentivise yourself
you don’t have to be anyone else for this boy
but he feels so far away now
yeah, you can’t go back to pre-first-time and holding hands
you’ve grown too fast
and now you’ve landed smack bang in the middle of skipped period blues
