《Art School (dialogue)》歌词

[00:00:00] Art School (Dialogue) - Ray Davies

[00:00:26] It was clear to everybody in the family

[00:00:28] That as a cripple

[00:00:30] I was a complete

[00:00:31] Failure

[00:00:33] I did no better at college actually

[00:00:35] I went to the hornsey college

[00:00:37] Of art

[00:00:40] Hornsey

[00:00:41] With the emphasis on horn

[00:00:52] But being at Art college in the

[00:00:54] Mid till late sixties was quite an experience

[00:00:58] Everything was changing in Britain

[00:00:59] Fashion style art theater

[00:01:02] But the thing I enjoyed most about Art College

[00:01:06] Were the chicks

[00:01:09] Exactly

[00:01:09] Don't think of me as crumpet man

[00:01:11] Do you

[00:01:15] Do you

[00:01:18] But there was one chick in particular

[00:01:20] She was in the sculpture

[00:01:21] Department she was a complete goddess

[00:01:23] She was like one of these

[00:01:24] Continental film stars

[00:01:26] Her body

[00:01:27] Was shaped like a

[00:01:29] Gretch country gentleman guitar

[00:01:34] But like a gretch country gentleman

[00:01:36] She was too expensive for me

[00:01:43] But ev'ry night I persevered

[00:01:45] I carried her easel up the stairs to her bedsit

[00:01:48] All these stairs to this attic appartment

[00:01:52] But once I was inside her bedsit

[00:01:53] I'd sit down

[00:01:55] And talk to her about politics

[00:01:57] Art

[00:01:58] Literature

[00:01:59] Revolution

[00:02:00] The usual crap do you what I mean

[00:02:03] And this girl would lean

[00:02:05] Against the refrigerator

[00:02:06] Sip her cocoa

[00:02:08] And stare at me as if to say

[00:02:10] You can talk all the bullsh*t you want

[00:02:14] You ain't gonna get anywhere

[00:02:16] With me and she was right

[00:02:17] So I like to dedicate this next piece

[00:02:21] To that wonderful prick teaser of my youth
