Crocodile Smile from Saintland by The Starling Radicals

6:30 early alarm clock rings
Each Thursday bin-boy always sings,
For me, The Man Who Sold the World

Street walking, like to see the sights
The Pharmacy got Christmas lights
Still November – That’s the tour
Since the neighbours went away again


Need a little bit of help with her essay
No word from a girl or boyfriend
That’s around about all in the village worth writing down


House over, dog’s named after mine
Weird owner, hound tails right in line
Know where to find ‘em, town’s a show

White Lightning clutters up the rec
For wearing Jesus round her neck
The townies took another girl
Won’t be seeing her around again


Writes stories on post in the office
Takes home what he likes the shape of
That’s around about all in the village worth writing down


Between the dead and the blind
A crocodile smile don’t go un-noted, oh no
We'll take the bottles and pills
And run to the hills to dig our fortune over


That’s around about all in the village worth writing down
