Hey! It's #fortnightFridayMusic & the cue is #green because we're doing the reverse rainbow 🎉
I'm easying into my Friday with:
The Killjoys - The Greener Side
https://thekilljoys.bandcamp.com/track/09-the-greener-side
When Australia was neck deep in punk, pub rock and the emerging grunge scene, in 1990 the Killjoys felt all our lives needed a little more vibraphone in them.
Can't say I disgreed and this track is off what remains the most beautiful album in my collection. Posting the entire lyrics as they're not online and I had to read them off the vinyl cover...
🎶 A grinning sun, some birds and trees
The colours run
Is that a picture you'd think I'd forget
When it's all right there, laid out in front of you
Never do something that you'd regret
But here and now
What would they ever know
If you and I, we took just one
And kept it alight
Though I know it's wrong to think no harm in this
I'd never undermine the vows you made
And give them back just as soon as you wanted them
Unless it's lost it's something you can't keep
...seasons never keep the peace inside
Someone's always feeling left behind
Though the path's well worn by now
Never's not enough anyhow
Funny how you're never really satisfied
Always looking to the greener side
Sometimes leap like sailors do in calenture
When what you wanted most was right beside 🎶
