LyricMeaning

Autumnal
Arab Strap

If you learn to drive

I can use the train and the bus

When you're mobile, we'll go

Take my toys and your cat with us


We'll leave the violence

We'll have something to do

With a couch-bed in the front room

For when our friends come through


It's painting a kitchen

That's keeping me going

And we've already named the seeds

I'll be sowing


And when they've grown up

(That's hoping that I don't shoot blanks)

Could we move right up north

Find a house near the shores and the banks?


With a big fuck off telly

A brand new stereo system

We'll meet old friends at funerals

And pretend that we've missed them


And if they were here

They'd say it was shocking

To find we've already named the dog

We'll be walking


It's choosing a mattress

That's keeping me going

And we've already named the seeds

I'll be sowing
