It is pretty different in overall character, and in its American-ness, but the story this Magnetic Fields song tells is sort of very similar-- standoffish insecure gay guy rebuffs a guy attempting to get closer, but eventually uncharacteristically warms to him:
"I like your twisted point of view, Mike.
I like your questioning eyebrows.
You've made it pretty clear what you like,
it's only fair to tell you now:
that I leave early in the morning,
and I won't be back till next year;
I see that kiss-me pucker forming,
but maybe you should plug it with a beer, cause
Papa was a rodeo, Mama was a rock'n'roll band;
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
Home was anywhere with diesel gas. Love was a trucker's hand.
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand."
