No Picture Badass	#1 by guess wha' i suck at Dec 12, 1970 at 10:59 AM EST
	well surprise surprise, dear old Katie Moss has popped up in a libertines song. Well if she has the power to get Pete clean then good luck to her.

No Picture Aaron Average	#2 by Aaron Smith at Jun 21, 1974 at 12:14 AM EST
	this song rules my favourite on the album!

No Picture kyle Badass	#3 by kyle .,., at Jun 14, 1978 at 6:57 AM EST
	"hurry up mrs brown, i can feel her coming down" refers to katies heroin anddiction, brown =skag=bone=horse=heroin. dont know what "polka dots fill my eyes" is refering to? taking herion, i wouldnt know, im a good boy.

No Picture M Average	#4 by M K-O at Mar 10, 1981 at 3:43 AM EST
	She said goodbye...? Plus, probably wrong, but I always though the plokadots meant that he had thought he was having a good time with this person, but now she's gone it's all sunshine and lollipops. Thinking about it that way, Katie could symbolise drugs, but hey, what doesn't in Libertines songs? That's just what I always though, I'm not claiming it's right or sensible

No Picture Cory Wanna Be	#5 by Cory at Feb 27, 1982 at 6:18 PM EST
	polka dots fill my eyes........maybe he cant see properly because of the drugs lol

No Picture Brennan Wanna Be	#6 by Brennan unknown at Sep 7, 1986 at 3:21 PM EST
	THIS IS NOT ABOUT KATE MOSS! It was written YEARS ago by Pete, well before the Libertines got their contract with Rough Trade. And it's beautiful. Yazattak - Kate Moss is a 31 year old internationally famous supermodel, and it is incredibly foolish to imagine that she didn't take drugs before she met Pete.

No Picture Jesse Wanna Be	#7 by Jesse Seibel at Dec 20, 1986 at 2:37 AM EST
	i really love this song

No Picture James Rhythm Player	#8 by James T.H. at May 30, 1997 at 5:19 AM EST
	i have just read these lyrics for the first time and i am in awe of the guy!!! Polka dots instead of tears=LOLl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Picture Anthony Average	#9 by Anthony Pardee at Aug 12, 2000 at 5:50 PM EST
	A lot of people seem to think this is quite an upbeat and jolly song, but to me it's quite melancholy. The band sound really... I dunno... tired. Know what I mean? Good song though.

No Picture Jacob Lead Player	#10 by Jacob Julian at Aug 5, 2002 at 6:44 PM EST
	(what im about to write is not about the meaning but oh well) but this song uses pathetic fallacy where petes mood (crying at the end) mirrors the weather (raining). meh.

No Picture Andrea Average	#11 by Andrea Lauria at Apr 12, 2006 at 8:35 AM EST
	i love this song to bits :)

No Picture Super n00b!	#12 by Super Dude! at May 31, 2006 at 7:29 PM EST
	Good and accurate I prefer to play thee first chords differently, but other than that it is good.
