Sexy Writer – song

Girls who live in hammocks wearing jeans

Smelling flowers and the mornings growing lighter

She’s bathing and the sunlight falls in streams

And it turns out she’s such a sexy writer

Leaving home each days she says she’s heading for the post

But every night she gets back home, she’s given up the ghost

And London is just around the corner

And London is just around the corner

Catching trains at day time seems an awful waste of time

Its hard to hear the music and impossible to rhyme

And London is just around the corner

And London is just around the corner

Girls who live in hammocks wearing jeans

Smelling flowers and the mornings growing lighter

She’s bathing and the sunlight falls in streams

And it turns out she’s such a sexy writer

Selling two-bob watches for a pound on Essex Street

Selling two shoes to a man without his feet

And London is just around the corner

And London is just around the corner

Telling people on television what to believe

Simple truths that don’t last half an hour

And home is just around the corner

And home is just around the corner

Girls who live in hammocks wearing jeans

Smelling flowers and the mornings growing lighter

She’s bathing and the sunlight falls in streams

And it turns out she’s such a sexy writer
