[00:05.00] Franz Ferdinand
[00:06.83] The Dark Of The Matinee
[00:10.56] written by Kapranos/McCarthy/Hardy/Thompson
[00:13.29] L.L
[00:16.51]
[00:21.53] You take your white finger
[00:26.27] Slide the nail under
[00:28.23] the top and bottom buttons
[00:29.80] of my blazer
[00:34.33] relax the fraying wool
[00:36.75] slacken ties and I'm
[00:39.70] not to look at you in the shoe
[00:46.14] but the eyes find the eyes
[00:53.85]
[00:55.16] find me and follow me
[00:56.82] through corridors, refectories and files
[00:59.59] you must follow, leave
[01:01.22] this academic factory
[01:03.26] you will find me in the Matinee
[01:05.21] the dark of the matinee
[01:07.28] it's better in the Matinee
[01:09.17] the dark of the Matinee is mine
[01:13.46] yes it's mine
[01:18.86]
[01:34.94] I time every journey
[01:39.31] to bump into you
[01:41.25] accidentally I
[01:43.67] charm you and tell you
[01:48.07] of the boys I hate
[01:50.08] all the girls I hate
[01:52.26] all the words I hate
[01:54.14] all the clothes I hate
[01:56.33] how I'll never be anything I hate
[02:00.41] you smile, mention something that you like
[02:07.40] how you'd have a happy life
[02:11.86] if you did the things you like
[02:16.03]
[02:16.84] find me and follow me
[02:18.92] through corridors, refectories and files
[02:22.04] you must follow, leave
[02:23.17] this academic factory
[02:25.11] you will find me in the Matinee
[02:27.61] the dark of the matinee
[02:29.23] it's better in the Matinee
[02:31.21] the dark of the Matinee is mine
[02:35.22] yes it's mine
[02:39.23]
[02:40.55] So I'm on BBC2 now
[02:44.54] telling Terry Wogan how I made it.
[02:49.18] What I made is unclear now
[02:53.68] but his deference is
[02:56.40] and his laughter is
[02:58.45] my words and smile are so easy now
[03:06.51] yes, it's easy now
[03:10.99] yes, it's easy now
[03:14.26]
[03:15.48] find me and follow me
[03:17.67] through corridors, refectories and files
[03:20.38] you must follow, leave
[03:21.97] this academic factory
[03:23.83] you will find me in the Matinee
[03:26.12] the dark of the matinee
[03:27.96] it's better in the Matinee
[03:30.24] the dark of the Matinee
[03:31.80]
[03:32.31] find me and follow me
[03:33.92] through corridors, refectories and files
[03:37.10] you must follow, leave
[03:38.11] this academic factory
[03:40.18] you will find me in the Matinee
[03:42.51] the dark of the matinee
[03:44.31] it's better in the Matinee
[03:46.46] the dark of the Matinee is mine
[03:50.38] yes it's mine
[03:57.70]
