| As you walked into southern France | F |
| Upon the light hair of an arm | G |
| Cigar bands lay | H |

| Then arm in arm we fled the listless factory | C |
| The music changed your fingers ends to pearl | R |
| I punched you you foolish girl | R |
| For thanks to the metronome we got out alive in the air | S |
| Where the sun filled us with cruelty | C |
| There s what to do | T |
| Except despair like pages and laugh | U |
| Like prawns about the sea | C |
| Oh arm in arm we fled the industry | C |
| Into an earth of banks | P |
| And foolish tanks for what bare breasts might be | C |
