| | The Saturday Boy Lyrics Artist(Band):Billy Bragg
That September morning was clear and fresh The way she spoke and laughed at my jokes And the way she rubbed herself Against the edge of my desk She became a magic mystery to me And we'd sit together in double History twice a week And some days we'd walk the same way home And it's surprising how quick A little rain can clear the streets We dreamed of her and compared our dreams But that was all that I ever tasted She lied to me with her body you see I lied to myself 'bout the chances I'd wasted The times we were close Were far and few between In the darkness at the dances in the school canteen Did she close her eyes like I did As we held each other tight And la la la la la la la la means I love you She danced with me and I still hold that memory Soft and sweet And I stare up at her window As I walk down her street But I never made the first team, I just made the first team laugh And she never came to the phone She was always in the bath In the end, it took me a dictionary To find out the meaning of unrequited While she was giving herself for free At a party to which I was never invited I never understood my failings then And I hide my humble hopes now Thinking back she made us want her A girl not old enough to shave her legs If you find some error in The Saturday Boy Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about The Saturday Boy Billy Bragg - love lyricist | Reviewer: Mark Farrall | 2/19/09 Though Billy has a reputation as a political writer, he is the master of the bittersweet love song. There are several in his early work, capturing an air of yearning and loss, and Saturday Boy is redolent with a sense of disillusionment even in the midst of discovery. How may of us have some version of ‘dancing in the darkness in the school canteen’, and of the girl we adored but who never really seemed to notice us, or indeed went to ‘those’ parties to which we were not invited? I think Billy ranks with Morrissey for his love songs, both being peculiarly British in their evocation of melancholy – both boys who never seemed to get the girl?
