[Verse 1]
Through these gash old rags
These racks and grates and straps of bags
Like a berry in the leaves
Or a swallow in the rotten eaves

[Chorus 1]
I see your beautiful feminine eye
I watch it reflect the moving sky
Tapping my foot to your favourite tracks
Leaking from your headphone backs

[Verse 2]
In these ropes and poles
With "PLEASE WAIT HERE" and aching soles
Like a diamond in the rough
Or an emerald in a crimson cuff

[Chorus 2]
I saw your elegant feminine eye
I watch it watching the clock tick by
Tapping your foot to my favourite tracks
Leaking from my headphone backs
