about

Written about the local 'rock pub' sticky floors and tacky people - loved it but it is sadly no longer there.

lyrics

Another Slow Day(for fast women)

There was a certain look in his eyes that night
Reflected from the stark blue light
Shining from the pumps
Sitting there alone with his lukewarm beer
Wondering why he ever came in here
Another low life dump

And his eyes are glazed
And his head is swimming
In the cigarette haze
Its been a slow day,
A slow day
A low, slow day
For fast women

He is thinking back twenty years ago
Had everything he needed to know
To get him through the day
He had real thick hair and a very thin waist
Its in reverse, to his distaste
He’s forgotten what to say

And his eyes are glazed
And his head is swimming
In the cigarette haze
Its been a slow day,
A slow day
A low, slow day
For fast women

He drinks his beer and gets to his feet
Heads off down those empty streets
Making for his home
Too many drinks and cold memories
Those lost lovers and old enemies
Have left him here alone

And his eyes are glazed
And his head is swimming
In the cigarette haze
Its been a slow day,
A slow day
A low, slow day
For fast women
