Saint Etienne - Mario'S Cafe lyrics

Transcribed by Gerry

[Introduction sample:]

Cigarette, a cup of tea, a bun.

Ooh... /

Button up your sheepskin Carraway, / rainy cafe, Kentish Town, Tuesday. /

Barry's looking through the Racing Post, / orders coffee, another round of toast. /

Lucy writes a letter, / she'd like to spend an evening with Prince B. /

[When they perform the song live, the verse is often extended to:

Lucy writes a letter, / and Harvey throws his arms around Vanessa /

??? spoke with PM Dawn ??? / she'd like to spend an evening with Prince B.]

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

Everyone's dreaming of all they've got to live for, /

joking around, still digging that sound. /

Everyone's dreaming of all they've got to live for. /

Squeezy bottles under Pepsi signs, / Joe and Johnny chew the bacon rind. /

Jackie wants to meet the Glitter Band, / Dilworth is a strange and lovely man, /

and Eubank wins the fight, / and did you see the KLF last night? /

[When they perform the song live, the verse is often extended:

Robbie wants to be the heavy [?] / ??? /]

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

Everyone's dreaming of all they've got to live for, /

joking around, still digging that sound. /

Everyone's dreaming of all they've got to live for. /

Rainy cafe, Kentish Town, Tuesday, /

joking around, still digging that sound. /

Everyone's dreaming of all they've got to live for. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. (ten a.m.) /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. /

When we meet for a while, / Tuesday morning ten a.m. (ten a.m.)/

When we meet for a while (meet for a while, / meet for a while, meet for a while.) /

When we meet for a while (meet for a while, / meet for a while, meet for a while.)
