Quentin Francis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's always the same
But it is never your fault
No you are not to blame
Never one for emotions
No you can't be touched
Luckily I don't like her that much
Go put a t-shirt on, and we'll meet under the louvre
I've got to help somebody, yeah I'm helping you
Maybe while we're looking at art, oh you'll find somebody new
She said she wants to be famous
She wants to be a star
Maybe like Bonham-Carter
So she can go far
Never been with an actress
Well maybe that's just luck
But she is not one I'd like to, huh
I want to fix you molly, yeah I'm wanting to
Go put a t-shirt on, and I'll meet you at the louvre
I've got to help somebody, yeah I'm helping you
Maybe while we're looking at art, oh you'll find somebody new
I want to fix you molly, yeah I'm wanting to
Go put a t-shirt on, and we'll meet under the louvre
I've got to help somebody, yeah I'm helping you
I want to fix you molly, yeah I'm wanting to
Go put a t-shirt on, and we'll meet under the louvre
I've got to help somebody, yeah I'm helping you
I want to fix you molly, yeah I'm wanting to
Go put a t-shirt on, and we'll meet under the louvre
I've got to help somebody, yeah I'm helping you
Maybe while we're looking at art, oh you'll find somebody new
