I Have No Sister Lyrics

I never had a sister
that you didn't like
You had three ugly brothers
but still turned out all right, yeah

I never had a girlfriend
longer than three months
you never had a boyfriend
but married on a hunch

so let's ride bikes into the sea
and catch a bus outside the reef
drive so deep that we can see
thinks that we have to get off
the bus driver laughs and he shakes his head
says, "You're okay, I drive this route everyday"
you're uneasy and you say you're scared
and if I die at least you'll die too

I never had a sister
but you, you look swell
wearing your matching shorts
as often as the mail comes

you look like Audrey Hepburn
when you get all dressed up
I have seen all your movies
'cause Audrey's a stone fox

so let's ride bikes into the sea
and catch a bus outside the reef
drive so deep where we can see
thinks that we have to get off
The bus driver laughs and he shakes his head
says, "You're okay, I drive this route everyday"
you're uneasy and you say you're scared
and if I die at least you'll die too

I'm reminded of The Smiths- "There is a Light that Never Goes Out."

as much as I love my bike, this song does make me want to ride it into the sea. it's like the pied piper, only his pipe calls to cyclists rather than rats...

@elephant seventh: The line "and if I die at least you'll die too" reminds me of The Smiths indeed. "And if a double-decker bus crashes into us To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die" cool :)

Correction:

This: "drive so deep where we can see thinks that we have to get off"

Should be this: "Drive so deep that we can't see a thing So we have to get off"

I heard this song on a pandora station seeded by Nausea by Beck. . . it has been stuck in my head ever since.

Audrey IS a stone fox.

Correction:

"drive so deep that we can see thinks that we have to get off"

should be "Drive so deep that we can't see a thing so we ask to get off"
