After yesterday’s angry Jemma Freeman track, more defiance, this time not in fast, post-punk mode, but in a slower, though as emotive, a strong melody alt-country narrative by the Nottingham indie four-piece about about a wronged woman who decides it’s time for the worm to turn... With country delivery and great vocal harmonies and a very strong chorus and taken from their forthcoming EP Get Mean, out on on Hand in Hive Records. To explore more of their often tongue-in-cheek music, see also the other embedded links below.
Bobby works on weekends
And he's got a good hand
But he never keeps his promises
And I'm getting pretty tired of staying up
In the middle night
I smell the guilt on him
As he smothers me with buffers
And his winter coat that he just won't take off
Bobby where are you going?
I've work first thing in the morning
But he didn't bother answering
Just turned and headed for the door
Under my bed
I keep a steak knife
These kids broke in six months ago I guess it made me feel a little bold
Your leaving
Made me so uneasy
But I should learn to love myself
Without a reason or a doubt
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
I didn't do it gently
Lord knows the man is heavy
But I think I hit an artery
So he never came to get me
Watching him slip (watching him go down)
Got pretty tiresome
So I sat down and watched tv
As he finished ruining my mother's carpet
Bobby look (Bobby look, Bobby look)
It's the show we like
But you stopped coming home on weekdays I sat alone here every night
Oh baby
I see pretty clearly
That I should learn to love myself
Without a reason or a doubt
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
Oh I should learn to love myself
Without a reason or a doubt
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
There's nothing like the rain
To wash the blood away
And all those old mistakes
Baby they burn with you today
There's nothing but the rain
To wash the blood away
And all those old mistakes
Baby they burn with you today
