about

A 2nd bonus track addition to the Eastside Anthology. Originally written by Chris Knox and performed by the legendary New Zealand band "The Enemy" (and later released by Knox's band "Toy Love" in 1980).

Featuring Joe C. of 1/2 Ast, Spotted Dick and Kubiak fame on Bass Guitar duty, this one was just too much fun to keep to ourselves...

lyrics

The boys and me took a car and we went downtown
It's the only place we know where we'll be found
Rippin' the guts outta stranded automobiles
Can't you see how beautiful it feels

Back home we lie in our beds
Is the day really day
Is the night really night
Won't it please go away
There is nothing to see
So we pull down the shades
You gotta pull down the shades
You gotta pull down the shades

We're havin' fun and doin' time
Suckin' on our samovar and lime
Listen to the beautiful music of your screams
As we bust the picture windows of your dreams

Back home we lie in our beds
As if nothing is wrong
There's a gun at our heads
There's a knife at our lungs
There is nothing to do
So we pull down the shades
You gotta pull down the shades
You gotta pull down the shades
