And maybe you're the Circle Line girl[00:00:26]

Trying so hard not to let on you know[00:00:30]

I'm looking at the way your toes poke out through your sandals[00:00:33]

At funny angles to your feet[00:00:37]

And how you know it turns me on[00:00:40]

Or maybe you're the Spanish girl[00:00:45]

Playing with your hair as you wait for your friend[00:00:47]

In that wild octagon of mirrors the Tate calls a coffee shop[00:00:50]

And I can smell that hair from here[00:00:55]

And I can see from eight different angles[00:00:58]

The way your nipples look through that thin black cotton top[00:01:01]

Reflected to infinity[00:01:05]

And oh God it's places like that and purple tipped prose like this[00:01:08]

That's going to hemorrhage me girl[00:01:14]

Ooo it's true：[00:01:18]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:01:22]

Or maybe you're the bay window girl[00:01:30]

In Wandsworth Town in ripped jeans and open Venetians[00:01:32]

Painting the difficult corner of an empty room[00:01:39]

White under a naked bulb[00:01:42]

Leaning across the bar at the top of your stepladder[00:01:45]

At the precise moment I'm passing on the steep street[00:01:47]

At the bottom of your garden in the gathering night[00:01:51]

Voyeur's delight[00:01:56]

Ooo it's true：[00:02:03]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:02:07]

Or maybe you're the foundation painter[00:02:13]

At the Central School looking so fine boned[00:02:15]

I could carry you home in your portfolio case[00:02:18]

Laced up gently so you won't cry out on the bus[00:02:21]

And give the game away[00:02:24]

Tied up lightly because girl[00:02:26]

How could I knowingly injure someone[00:02:27]

With your perfect lips and wrists your exquisite structure[00:02:29]

Oh little acrylic painter I can kiss eggshells I can be ginger[00:02:35]

All the critics say I'm such a sensitive singer[00:02:42]

Ooo it's true：[00:02:54]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:02:57]

And maybe you're listening to my voice now[00:03:04]

On your Walkman or your bedsit Dansette[00:03:06]

Letting my songs slip into you on this quiet night[00:03:08]

In with your pads of doodles and your fingers full of pencils[00:03:12]

And low tar cigarettes[00:03:15]

And the music's light and pleasant so you hardly notice[00:03:17]

What I'm singing about in Paper Wraps Rock[00:03:20]

And Murderers the Hope of Women[00:03:23]

My voice is just a sound that pleases you[00:03:25]

That enters you and leaves you just the same[00:03:27]

And that's how I want it to stay because you know[00:03:31]

Ooo it's true：[00:03:38]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:03:42]

But some of those were bitter records[00:03:49]

Records which accuse women girls like you[00:03:51]

Of using your attractiveness wantonly and willfully[00:03:53]

To trap and to paralyze men[00:03:56]

Who wanted you and could never have you[00:03:58]

Men who sometimes felt the perverse urge[00:04:00]

To trash the women they desired the most[00:04:02]

Men who imagined they despised all those immaculate visions[00:04:05]

What adolescent crap what kind of idiot would sing that[00:04:08]

Oh not me because you know[00:04:14]

Ooo it's true：[00:04:16]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:04:20]

But sometimes I think that every man who writes[00:04:26]

Every man who paints or composes deep soul or symphonies[00:04:29]

It makes no difference all those men are only making do with substitutes：[00:04:32]

Solomon Confucius Franz Kafka[00:04:37]

They'd never have done it if they'd been as beautiful as you[00:04:40]

Sitting cross legged there with gentle music[00:04:43]

Lapping around a promise there where your thighs meet[00:04:45]

Of fertility a million artists couldn't compete with[00:04:48]

Ooo it's true：[00:04:54]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:04:58]

And all the time I see you there[00:05:04]

In the eye of my mind and all that cheap macho stuff[00:05:06]

About de Sade and misogyny vanishes into thin air[00:05:09]

And I'm moved to tears just like any other sucker[00:05:13]

Who's been bruised by all the things that weren't to be[00:05:15]

And yet who's ready to fall down on his knees[00:05:17]

In front of a woman and say：[00:05:20]

Whatever you may do whatever you may be to me[00:05:21]

Despite the times we disagree your ridiculous ambitions[00:05:25]

Your conventional inhibitions[00:05:28]

I want you to know that I respect you[00:05:30]

I accept you and I want you to accept me[00:05:32]

I want to kiss you kiss your stockinged knee[00:05:35]

Accept the uniquely soft flesh[00:05:40]

On the undersides of your hips[00:05:42]

Ooo it's true：[00:05:43]

Girl I'm only doing it to be closer to you[00:05:48]

And when I've won you[00:05:56]

When I've fallen down in front of you and said：[00:05:57]

D**n Franz Kafka d**n the Thin White Duke[00:05:59]

D**n the Thin White Duke[00:06:02]

It's you and you alone I'm doing this for[00:06:05]

When I'm through with heroes and pastiche[00:06:08]

Throwing darts in lovers' eyes[00:06:10]

When you've let me make love to you[00:06:14]

The slowest deepest way that I know how[00:06:15]

When you do that for me baby[00:06:18]

And it feels so good[00:06:21]

Bear with me[00:06:23]

That's when I'll think of Paul Klee's epitaph：[00:06:31]

Here lies the painter Paul Klee[00:06:37]

Somewhat closer than usual to the heart of creation[00:06:44]

But far from close enough[00:06:50]

And girl here I lie[00:06:54]

Far from close enough to you[00:06:59]
