Arab Strap / Philophobia (1998.)

Vatre

It was the biggest cock you’d ever seen, but you’ve no idea where that cock has been.

The bed’s a mess when we’re finished and at rest,
and I can just see the post-fuck flush across your chest.

How am I supposed to walk you home when you’re at least fifty feet ahead?
Cause you walked off in a huff and I’m that pissed I can’t even remember what it was I said.

I pulled the ex last night, and it felt weird to feel her up again.
Knickers down, and bra cast as if the past and not passed.

Sve što ste oduvijek željeli znati o ljubavi i seksu, a niste se usudili pitati, otpjevano(izgovoreno?) tek nešto melodičnije od televizijskih ili radio-vijesti, praćeno najsanjivijom gitarom ikad. Prvo(of many to come…) zaista veliko Aidanovo i Malcolmovo ostvarenje i svojevrsna najava svega onoga lijepog što će nam naš omiljeni duet iz Falkirka priuštiti u budućnosti.

Mnogo je razloga za biti filofobičan, ali straha od zaljubljenosti u ove predivne pjesme nema.

Kada se jednom zaljubite u Arab Strap, odljubiti se je gotovo i nemoguće. A tako treba i biti.
