  • 作词 : Belle & Sebastian
    作曲 : Belle & Sebastian
    I was puzzled by a dream, it stayed with me all day in 1995

    My brother had confessed he was gay

    It took the heat off me for a while
    He stood up with a sailor friend
    Made it known upon my sisters wedding day

    I got married in a rush to save a kid from being deported
    Now she's in love

    I was so touched, I was moved to kick the crutches
    From my crippled friend

    She was not impressed cause I cured her on the Sabbath
    I went to confess

    When she saw the funny side, we introduced my child bride
    To whisky and gin
    To whisky and gin

    The priest in the booth had a photographic memory
    For all he had heard
    And he took all of my sins and he wrote a pocket novel called
    The State I Am In
    And so I gave myself to God
    There was a pregnant pause before he said ok

    Now I spend my day turning tables round In Marks & Spencer's
    They don't seem to mind

    I gave myself to sin
    I gave myself to Providence
    And I've been there and back again

    The state that I am in

    I gave myself to sin

    I gave myself to Providence
    And I've been there and back again
    The state that I am in

    Oh love of mine, would you condescend to help me

    Cause I'm stupid and blind

    Oh and desperation is the Devil's work, it is the folly of a boy's empty mind

    Now I'm feeling dangerous, riding on city buses for a hobby is sad

    Why don't you lead me to a living end
    I promised that I'd entertain my crippled friend

    My crippled friend

    I gave myself to sin
    I gave myself to Providence
    And I've been there and back again
    The state that I am in

    I gave myself to sin
    I gave myself to Providence

    And I've been there and back again

    The state that I am in

    I gave myself to sin
    I gave myself to Providence

    And I've been there and back again

    The state that I am in

    I gave myself to sin
    I gave myself to Providence
    And I've been there and back again
    The state that I am in
    I gave myself to sin
    And I've been there and back again

    Oh yeah
