about

The last song we wrote that made it onto the album, I think I was listening to a lot of the Blasters and the Sultans and such at the time. There's a big pile of garage-like tunes that may yet see the light of day if anyone is dumb enough to let us make another record. I recorded the riff on my phone and sent it to Yves who hummed the bass line over WhatsApp whilst me and my girlfriend were out at a restaurant and I loved it immediately. There was originally a third verse that I was proud of but it'll come back around.

lyrics

Well I've got a smoking gun
A smoking gun I can't stub out
But a heart can stop a bullet
If I fire it, have no doubt

The night is young and so are you

Well I'm a hate preacher
Gonna practice what I preach
Gonna nurse that anger
Gonna learn just what I teach

Life's a plate glass window begging for a brick
