A weekend with out make up - the long blondes
I’m quite into the long blondes at the moment. They are a bit like a cross between pulp and blondie. Play lots of punk pop but with some twisted and nasty lyrics. The long blondes have just released the single Giddy Stratospheres in the UK, it has made the top 40 which is good for them. The album itself got a very good review in NME who gave it 9 out of 10. One of my favourite tracks is a weekend without make up. the lyrics to the song are below.
Another weekend without makeup, another evening to myself.
Well, I guess that I won’t be having the time of my life tonight!
Where do you go when you’ve finished work?
You should have been home an hour ago!
I’ve got your tea laid out like some kind of fifties housewife.
Well I’ll feed you, but I need you to make a little more effort,
I don’t like giving you the third degree I just want what’s due to me
There are wants, there are needs and they are two very different things.
You can love or be in love, again, they’re two very different things.
Yes, they’re two very different things.
I need to talk but you’re much too tired
You’ve got a job but if you don’t get fired soon I will be extremely surprised (extremely surprised).
Where do you go when you’ve finished work?
You should have been back about an hour ago.
You’ve left me fashioning a double bed and acting like some kind of fifties housewife.
Well I’ll feed you, but I need you to make a little more effort,
I don’t like giving you the third degree I just want what’s due to me
There are wants, there are needs and they are two very different things.
You can love or be in love, again, they’re two very different things.
Yes, they’re two very different things.
I could be more than your landlady if you like, but you don’t like…and neither do I
There are wants, there are needs and they are two very different things.
You can love or be in love, again, they’re two very different things.
Yes, they’re two very different things.
You and I, we’re different
You and i, we’re two very different things,
but still i’ve got you, I’ve got you under my skin
but still i’ve got you, I’ve got you under my skin
but still i’ve got you, I’ve got you under my skin
I’ve got you under my skin
