The Beautiful South - White Teeth lyrics

White teeth, white teeth

Talent is rugged determination

Skill is a little more dull

Genius buggers straight conversation

Makes sure that it's ass is full

So good looking people don't write no poetry

They're too busy holding their hands

You don't go to beach for depth of thought

If your brain's leaking grains of sand

'Cos white teeth are uglier than yellow teeth

False gums never make plans

Little stones hold big stories underneath

But the big stones go to the dance

The big stones go to the dance

When model puts pen to paper

Paper tends to turn to stone

'Cause original thoughts so hard to squeeze

From a face so easy to clone

So good looking people don't write no poetry

They're too busy holding their hands

You don't go to beach for depth of thought

If your brain's leaking grains of sand

'Cos white teeth are uglier than yellow teeth

False gums never make plans

Little stones hold big stories underneath

But the big stones go to the dance

The big stones go to the dance

Whilst the dedicated cancelled the dates on their latest tour

'Cause genius had played that route ten times before

Hardwork made the excuse of being too hardcore

Yes don't fire shots from double barrel if you know you're single bore

'Cos white teeth are uglier than yellow teeth

False gums never make plans

Little stones hold big stories underneath

But the big stones go to the dance

The big stones go to the dance

The big stones go to the dance

The big stones go to the dance
