Elbow Bitten By The Tailfly Lyrics

Bitten By The Tailfly Lyrics

You're a girl in this vicinity

I'm a dog without a collar on

This
cattle-market cabaret

Is the Sabbath every Saturday

I'm full of wit
and chivalry

Until you've given in to me

I'm a dog without a collar
on

You're a girl in this vicinity



Bitten by the tail-fly

Too many times to change



It's a silent taxi ride away

But
it's everything to get you there

You'll know when you are bitten-shy

But still you will return my stare

From a crush of blushing
brides-to-be

You barely have a blossom on

Your eyes betray your
diaries

You're a girl in this vicinity



Bitten by the
tail-fly

Too many times to change



I'll take you home

Get you on your own
