[Verse 1: Stuart Murdoch]
You're working the village shop
Putting a poster up
Dreaming of anything
Dreaming of the time
When you are free
From all the trouble you're in
In the mud, on your knees
Trying hard not to please
Anyone, all the time
Being a rebel's fine
And you go all the way
To being brutal
[Chorus: Stevie Jackson]
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town
[Verse 2: Monica Queen]
So let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging styles for running miles
You're running miles in some boys jumper
Boo to the business world
You know a girl who's
Tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
You are working for the joy of giving
[Chorus: Monica Queen]
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
On the last bus out of town
On the last bus out of town
[Chorus: Monica Queen]
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a girl tonight
And you hope that they will see
In the hope that they will see
[Hand clapping]
[Bridge: Stuart Murdoch]
You are in two minds
Tossing a coin
To decide whether you should
Tell your folks
About a dose of thrush
You got when licking railings
[Verse 3: Stuart Murdoch and Monica Queen]
But you read in a book
That you got free in Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame
From all those prying eyes
Lazy Jane, all the time painting lines
You are sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it
[Chorus: Stuart Murdoch and Monica Queen]
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
On the last bus out of town
On the last bus out of town
[Chorus: Stuart Murdoch and Monica Queen]
You will have a boy tonight
Maybe you will have a girl tonight
On the last bus out of town
On the last bus out of town
[Chorus: Stuart Murdoch and Monica Queen]
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that they will see
And you hope that they will see
[Chorus: Stuart Murdoch and Monica Queen]
You will have a boy tonight
Maybe you will have a girl tonight
And you hope that they will see
Yeah you hope that they will see

The full sleeve notes:
Lazy Line Painter Jane prayed for an inspiration that would lift her above the mundanity of midday on a Thursday. She was in a hole, sat with egg and chips, watching buses through the plate glass and easy radio of some old cafe. She was too bashful to pray outright in the caf...
