An Open Letter To The Lyrical Trainspotter lyrics by Mansun

I'm writing these words like the fool that I amTrying to say something
Good like the person (I am)But it's all just a sham 'cos the writer I am
NotCould say anything, you'd believe themJust your A-typical
Boy-girl-girl-boy androgynousPlay on a publican's decoy'Cos I had to
Drop out 'cos the Art School was sad andIf you believe all of that
You're a bigger fool than me The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that
MuchThey're just a vehicle for a lovely voiceThey aren't supposed to
Mean that much Lyrics mean nothing, don't right any wrongsIn fact I'm
Not having them on thisYou say they mean nothing just gobbledy-gookBut
Just look at yourself you're not clever enoughUnderstanding the truth,
You are so out of touchYou believe all of this, you can't see it's a
SpoofUnderstand all the words when they don't even rhymeAnd I'm losing
The rhythm and the whole thing's getting wierder and wierder The lyrics
Aren't supposed to mean that muchThey're just a vehicle for a lovely
VoiceThey aren't supposed to mean that much The lyrics aren't supposed
To mean that muchThey're just a vehicle for a lovely voiceThey aren't
Supposed to mean that much They all believe meIt's all so easy now The
Lyrics aren't supposed to mean that muchThey're just a vehicle for a
Lovely voiceThey aren't supposed to mean that much The lyrics aren't
Supposed to mean that muchThey're just a vehicle for a lovely voiceThey
Aren't supposed to mean that much
