You take your white finger
Slide the nail under the top and bottom buttons of my blazer Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties And I'm not to look at you in the shoe, but the eyes, fight the eyes Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files You must follow, leave this academic factory You will find me in the matinee The dark of the matinee It's better in the matinee The dark of the matinee is mine Yes it's mine I time every journey to bump into you, accidentally I charm you and tell you of the boys I hate All the girls I hate All the words I hate The clothes I hate How I'll never be anything I hate You smile, mention something that you like How you'd have a happy life if you did the things you like So find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files You must follow, leave this academic factory You will find me in the matinee The dark of the matinee It's better in the matinee The dark of the matinee is mine Yes it's mine So I'm on BBC2 now, telling Terry Wogan how I made it And what I made is unclear, but his deference is and his laughter is My words and smile are so easy now Yes, It's easy now Yes, It's easy now So find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files You must follow, leave this academic factory You will find me in the matinee The dark of the matinee It's better in the matinee The dark of the matinee is mine Yes it's mine |

221 posts | Damn, I've never seen the clip but knowing their previous ones I'm sure its pretty swanky. How proud would the Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand be, having such an awesome band naming themselves after him. Yay to Franz Ferdinand! |

288 posts | Loved this song the second I heard it. I bought the cd the week it came out. I was looking for "muse", and found this instead. Glad I did. |

5 posts | Why did Franz shorten the name to Matinee anyway? Well it sounds better.
Anyhow the song is a masterpiece. I just love the way it sounded the first time I heard it, like it's something I've known all my life.. the familiarity of it.. yet it's just such a great, fresh song. |
