Bad Old Days

Something I did last year - A song about the crazy college days (Or Uni where applicable :) )

Bad Old Days

Everybody’s drinking their wine
Driving slow and taking their time
Better off when I sip moonshine
Not rubbing alcohol ’cause I might go blind

I’m a dog, such a dog
Runnin’ free gonna crap on your lawn
Throw me a stick I’ll fetch it for you
Win the heart of your girlfriend, too

Chorus

Ahhhhhh :)

In the morning, take warning
I’m a sailor with the red sky eyes
Got my pork roll egg and cheese
Black coffee with my gravy fries

Easy one track mind
Never crossing the finish line
Drunk as hell by half past nine
We’re doin’ it all the time

A little Elvis Costello-ish...;>)

Chorus on vox! I love it! This is a catchy tune, I'd love to hear a 'heavier' drummer on it.

There is the Launched spook, nice stuff. Trippy and heavy. Great song Mark. Beauty solo. raw and ragged and a beautiful sound at the same time.

Yep. Had my first snake-bite black yesterday. All because of this song.

Man, that's some good Shit! If I could write songs as well as you do I'd lock myself up in a room and I'd record like a motherfucker. Vocals have a hint of Ozzyness!

Have you got the lyrics writ large somewhere ? This is a fun track but my booze addled and (fairly)ancient ears cannot detect all the nuances,love the whiny fiddly sound at the back...is it a guitar?
