Fox in the Snow (Belle and Sebastian)
fox in the snow
where do you go
to find something you could eat
'cause the word out on the street
is you are starving
don't let yourself go hungry now
don't let yourself grow cold
fox in the snow
girl in the snow
where do you go
to find someone who will do
to tell someone all the truth
before it kills you
and listen to your crazy laugh
before you hang a right
and disappear from sight
what do they know anyway?
you read it in a book
what do they know anyway?
you read it in a book tonight
boy on the bike
what are you like
as you cycle 'round the town
you’re going up, you’re going down
you’re going nowhere
it’s not as if they’re paying you
it’s not as if it’s fun
at least not anymore
when your legs are black and blue
it's time to take a break
when your legs are black and blue
it's time to take a holiday
kid in the snow
where'd you go
it only happens once a year
it only happens once a lifetime, make the most of it
second just to being born
second to dying, too
what else would you do
what else would you do...
fox in the snow
when your leg's looking black and blue
fox in the snow
it’s not as if they’re paying you
fox in the snow
when your leg's looking black and blue
fox in the snow
it’s not as if they’re paying you
fox in the snow
fox in the snow
