about

Seed – 90 minutes on a sunday morning. Based it on Manfred Mann’s ‘Pretty Flamingo”
Recording – the original idea was recorded at home with the door locked
Collaboration – long time friend and partner in popular musical crime, Rikki Morris helped out on this with an emphasis on a second most huge bridge. He also recorded drums and guitar in his lounge, and wrote and sang some new lyrics. 2 bridges...a bridge too far?

lyrics

Sitting in the back of the bus with Irene
This is the time and place for us with Irene
Everyone has a danger point
Just one spark let's blow this joint with Irene

Climbed thru my window last night with Irene
Stole a kiss and gave me a fright with Irene
Every time I see her eyes
I lose control I'm mesmerised

You left without a trace
Left me shattered wrecked my place
We woke the whole neighbourhood
With Irene

I wasn't thinking about falling in love
It was the furthest thing from my mind
But now she's here I just can't get enough
Hey Irene let's do this one more time...

Lying on the bed in a heap with Irene
Drifting in and out of sleep with Irene
Then I wake up with a start
There's a spike right thru my heart
Things are not what they seem
I've been tricked it's just a dream...

Where've you gone Irene?
She was just a dream...
