"Sister I'm A Poet" lyrics

"Sister I'm A Poet"

All over this town
Yes, a low wind may blow
And I can see through everybody's clothes, with no reason
To hide these words I feel
And no reason
To talk about the books I read; but still, I do

That's 'cause I'm a
Sister, I'm a
All over this town

Along this way, outside the prison gates
I love the romance of crime, and I wonder
Does anybody feel the same way I do?
And is evil just something you are?
Or something you do?

Sister, I'm a
Sister, I'm a
All over this town

All over this town, they pull over in their Citroën vans
Not to shake your hands
With the meths on their breaths
And you with youth on your side
All 'lone now, alone waiting at the lights
But not this time

Sister, I'm a
Sister, I'm
All this over town
