The State I Am In

The State I Am In (我的状态) - Belle and Sebastian (贝尔与塞贝斯蒂安)[00:00:00]

Written by:Christopher Geddes/Isobel Campbell/Michael Cooke/Richard Colburn/Stephen Jackson/Stuart Murdoch[00:00:00]

I was surprised I was happy for a day in 1975[00:00:01]

I was puzzled by a dream stayed with me all day in 1995[00:00:14]

My brother had confessed that he was gay[00:00:28]

It took the heat off me for a while[00:00:32]

He stood up with a sailor friend[00:00:38]

Made it known upon my sisters wedding day[00:00:41]

I got married in a rush to save a kid from being deported[00:00:59]

Now she's in love[00:01:06]

I was so touched I was moved to kick the crutches[00:01:10]

From my crippled friend[00:01:15]

She was not impressed that I cured her on the sabbath[00:01:19]

So I went to confess[00:01:26]

When she saw the funny side we introduced my child bride[00:01:30]

To whisky and gin[00:01:36]

To whisky and gin[00:01:39]

The priest in the booth had a photographic memory[00:01:50]

For all he had heard[00:01:56]

He took all of my sins and he wrote a pocket novel called[00:02:00]

The state I am in[00:02:06]

So I gave myself to God[00:02:10]

There was a pregnant pause before he said OK[00:02:13]

Now I spend my day turning tables round in marks and spencers[00:02:20]

They don't seem to mind[00:02:26]

I gave myself to sin[00:02:34]

And[00:02:36]

I gave myself to providence[00:02:36]

And I've[00:02:39]

Been there and back again[00:02:41]

The state that I am in[00:02:43]

I gave myself to sin I gave[00:02:47]

Myself to providence and I've[00:02:51]

Been there and back again[00:02:54]

The state that I am in[00:02:56]

Oh love of mine would you condescend to help me[00:03:07]

Cause I am stupid and blind[00:03:13]

Desperation is the devil's work it is the folly of a boy's empty mind[00:03:17]

Now I'm feeling dangerous[00:03:27]

Riding on city buses for a hobby is sad[00:03:30]

Lead me to a living end[00:03:37]

I promised that I'd entertain my crippled friend[00:03:40]

My crippled friend[00:03:46]

I gave myself to sin I gave[00:03:51]

Myself to providence and I've[00:03:54]

Been there and back again[00:03:56]

The state that I am in[00:03:59]

I gave myself to sin I gave[00:04:04]

Myself to providence and I've[00:04:07]

Been there and back again[00:04:09]

The state that I am in[00:04:13]

I gave myself to sin I gave[00:04:17]

Myself to providence and I've[00:04:20]

Been there and back again[00:04:23]

The state that I am in[00:04:25]

I gave myself to sin I gave[00:04:30]

Myself to providence and I've[00:04:33]

Been there and back again[00:04:36]

The state that I am in[00:04:39]

I gave myself to sin[00:04:43]

And I've been there and back again[00:04:45]

Oh yeah[00:04:51]
