Happy birthday on the phone
3 AM
You took 30 pills
Suck the life out of the night
And spit it out
All over the morning
Like a drunk little lamb
Slept on the pike
Almost got killed
What happened to your cigarette?
Do I smell something burning?
Happy endings all around
Keep your feet planted
And when the world stops turning
You’ll be the first one running
And we will all be tuning in
Until you change channels again
Took a ride into town
On your behalf
And lost everything
Can’t expect apology
You’re alive
Just count your blessings
You’re an expert, you’re a pro
You’ve paid your dues
Out like a light
Friends like you are hard to lose
You cost a lot of money
(chorus)
The mirror’s not your friend
It’s no big joke
You can’t go home
XTC had their moment in time...this recording extends it...Full of small, tight , quirky songs it juz rolls along. Recommended but maybe only for XTC fans.. cwhitney
Woozy, rollicking indie rock that's thick and humid, searching vocals set against pealing guitars. Also available on cassette. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2016
