Wake up now, this is the time you've waited for.
Far below, where shadows fester as they grow,
An army thousands strong, obsessed by right and wrong,
They sense their time is coming near.
An absolute classic, from their greatest album imho, perhaps a bit too obscure when comparing it to Up The Junction by Squeeze which has universal appeal.Far below, where shadows fester as they grow,
An army thousands strong, obsessed by right and wrong,
They sense their time is coming near.
Duke one of the great albums recorded at Abba's Polar Studios along with Led Zeppelin's In Through The Out Door.
Couple of very recent ones that have struck a chord:-
The image in your eyes
Reflecting the pain that has taken you
I hear it in your voice, so ridden with shame
From what's ailing you
Listen, everyone
The time will come when all of us say goodbye
Feel that aching in your heart, leaving you broken inside
But we're never really gone, as long as there's a memory in you mind
The image in your eyes
Reflecting the pain that has taken you
I hear it in your voice, so ridden with shame
From what's ailing you
Listen, everyone
The time will come when all of us say goodbye
Feel that aching in your heart, leaving you broken inside
But we're never really gone, as long as there's a memory in you mind

I knew a girl named Nikki I guess you could say she was a sex fiend,
I met her in a hotel lobby masturbating with a magazine,
She said how'd you like to waste some time ...
and I could not resist when I saw little Nikki grind.
Der-der-derder der...der derder deh der derrrr...I met her in a hotel lobby masturbating with a magazine,
She said how'd you like to waste some time ...
and I could not resist when I saw little Nikki grind.
I came here to post this, you beat me to it. Such a good track.
A few from me
Rolling up tab ends that the baby's collected
Waiting for the number that clicks on the wall.
It's open season on the weak and the feeble
Their meagre ambitions, their impotent fury
The time I think most clearly, the time I drift away
Is on the bus-ride that meanders up these valleys of green and grey
I get to think about what might have been and what may yet come true
And I get to pass a rainy mile thinking of you
You used to say that this town was built in a wrong place
I could always feel something was strange – such a strong taste
You were so much in love with her that it drew you away
To chasing shadows out across the moors on an August day
Rolling up tab ends that the baby's collected
Waiting for the number that clicks on the wall.
It's open season on the weak and the feeble
Their meagre ambitions, their impotent fury
The time I think most clearly, the time I drift away
Is on the bus-ride that meanders up these valleys of green and grey
I get to think about what might have been and what may yet come true
And I get to pass a rainy mile thinking of you
You used to say that this town was built in a wrong place
I could always feel something was strange – such a strong taste
You were so much in love with her that it drew you away
To chasing shadows out across the moors on an August day

Few from me during my lunch break, may well be more later.
If I were to say to you
Can you keep a secret?
Would you know just what to do
Or where to keep it?
Lets go down to The Sunset Grill
Watch the working girls go by
See the basket people walk around and mumble
Gaze out at the auburn sky.
Harry got up
Dressed all in black
Went down to the station
And he never came back
There's gotta be a record of you someplace
You gotta be on somebody's books
The lowdown, a picture of your face
Your injured looks
The festival was over, the boys were all plannin' for a fall
The cabaret was quiet except for the drillin' in the wall
The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin' wheel shut down
Anyone with any sense had already left town
I met her in a poolroom
Her name I didn't catch
She looks like something special
The kind who'd understand
Just yesterday morning, they let me know you were gone.
Suzanne, the plans they made put an end to you.
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song,
I just can't remember who to send it to.
