Pete Doherty Arcady lyrics

In Arcady, your life trips along
Pure and simple as the shepherd's song
Seraphic pipes along the way in Arcady

In Arcady, in Arcady, oh

Never saw I such a scene
Of such fair maids upon such a molten green
Well, they employ their holiday with dance and game
And things I may never name

In Arcady, in Arcady

Well, you said he was your teacher
He taught you true and wise
But now you know more than your teacher
I see nothing but cool self regard in your eyes

In Arcady

But see how twisted it becomes
You see how quickly twisted it becomes

When the cat gut binds my ankles to your bedstead
Oh, that ain't love, no, that ain't love

Said he was your teacher
And he taught you true and wise
But now you know more than your teacher
I see nothing but cool self regard in your eyes

In Arcady, in Arcady

In Arcady, in Arcady

In Arcady, your life trips along
Pure and simple as the shepherd's song
Feel seraphic pipes along the way in Arcady

In Arcady, in Arcady
In Arcady, in Arcady
