| Belle & Sebastian – The Boy with the Arab Strap Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| The song is written towards Isobel Campbell who was in the group and is about B&S visiting London with the band Arab Strap. if you listen at one point he sings "the boy FROM the Arab Strap" instead of the usual "with".Stuart Murdoch was in a relationship with Isobel for a while and I think this was written as the relationship was breaking down. | |

bjort is kinda right Chalet lines refers literally to a line of Chalets. In the UK there is a chain of holiday camps called Butlins. they cater for thousands of people at a time living in these rented chalets. The main activities are amusement rides during the day "the shows" and lots of drinking at night.Stuart Murdoch comes from Ayrshire in Scotland where there happens to be a particularly large Butlins Camp. |
