Garbo

Shane MacGowan, Jem Finer

[Verse 1]
Saint-Tropez in the golden days of the gorgeous Brigitte Bardot
Heaven's night is burning bright at the gates of El Dorado
I tasted sin among the bins down at Alvarado
Melbourne's sweet, the sunny streets, the beauty of the garbo

[Chorus]
In and out, catch me if you can
All the lovely sheilas love the garbo man

[Verse 2]
By the crack of dawn, as the day is born and the world is all aslumber
And amidst the dreams and unborn schemes and the rolls of distant thunder
If you should stir, you'll hear a word that'll fill your heart with wonder
As the garbo trucks take away the muck of last night's puke and chunder

[Chorus]
In and out, catch me if you can
All the lovely sheilas love the garbo man

[Verse 3]
Follow me among the shit, me boys, stinking all and rough
They'll never dump anything useful but they surely dump enough
I got me end away, me boys, a couple of times last night
But now I'm on the truck once more, I'm head to toe in shite
I'm shitfaced and I'm stoned, I want to be alone
But all the lovely Sheilas love a garbo man

[Chorus]
In and out, catch me if you can
All the lovely sheilas love the garbo man
In and out, catch me if you can
All the lovely sheilas love the garbo man
