Slow Club - Me and You [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

ME AND YOU!!!

We're moving gravel off someone else's drive
Into a barrel, it helps 'em stay alive
Off to market
You will buy a cone
They'll never notice
They're never home

Policy and bureaus help to move the tide
Pounds, sterling, euros, get yourself a wife
Who loves you for who you are
And not because the other one is tight
Marry into money, marry twice
Live underneath the staircase, or speak your mind

Well I've got a feeling someone else is reading
The letters I wrote to you
Well, my pet's illiterate
And I live alone
So, it's someone in betwixt to me and you

[Chorus]
Me and you
Me and you
Last time we spoke I thought we were through
I found a map
I found a map
I found a map
I found a map
And now I know the way you can just go
Back, back, back, back

There's a bat hibernating on my bathroom wall
No one went in for weeks. He thought it was a home
Safe to sleep the nights away
Shh, shh, shh

I offered him some food but he said "I cannot stay
I'm disgraced by my actions and I'm outlawed from the cave."
Crying in the taxi won't do you no good
Oh, well, I tried to make a vessel but there was no wood
Strong enough to bend and never swell
We just jump right in
And buy a pair of gills
But holding on for that long could be the end as well

[Chorus x2]

Help yourself out: shoot history in the mouth
It's all that's left to do
Look me up in some phonebook
Under "Me and You"
