Camera Obscura lyrics wow

I can't stop listening to this band Camera Obscura. Their retro (50s Americana pop), "Twee" sound belies their Scottishness. It's wonderful to discover ironic complexity and poeticism beneath beguiling music. With song names like "Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken" ("...'Cause I can't see farther than my own nose at this moment") and "Let's Get Out of this Country", I'm thoroughly charmed. Here is a highlight in a song called "Suspended From Class"
from the 2003 album Underachievers Please Try Harder:

You’re such a beautiful writer /that’s not all you are
I’m sorry about making a pass
It was subtle but I think that you grasped
The meaning intended

I can be a friend to you / I won’t pretend
I’m not interested in breaking a heart
It’s not love no it’s nothing like that
I’ll leave that to lookers like him

Oh he’s such a delicate thing
Now it’s such a fragile thing that we have

||: I should be suspended from class
I don’t know my elbow from my arse :||

We could go out dancing
But, in truth it is the last thing that I have on my mind
Please say if I'm way out of line
I won't need telling twice

Now he wants to kiss
Said he can't resist
You're going to have to keep it hidden inside
I've a feeling that pigs might fly, might fly

||: I should be suspended from class
I don’t know my elbow from my arse :||
