about

Cuba in the fifties: gambling, crime, night club hostesses, holstered guns, sleaze and sweat. I just called Jericho...
.

lyrics

A twisted smile and a curtain call
Frenzied dancing beneath the broken glitter ball
Shades and bulges in the razor suits
Light plays on the bald man’s head
It doesn’t look good
I just called Jericho
I just called Jericho
He said:
‘Don’t do anything – I’ll be there soon
I won’t be long
I’ve just got to tie up the moon...’

(She is my girl, she is my girl)

We dance the tango til the Moon is red
We dance the tango til we cannot feel our heads
We dance the tango into the night
We dance the tango though we know that nothing is right
And I will take her
Somewhere no-one has been before
I will take her somewhere because she is my girl

Yeah, the talk is loose
And the cards are on the table
They say they want her back
She belongs to Big Jimmy
But I say: ‘That’s not going to happen
I won her fair and square
Wait til Jericho gets here’
And then I remember
Jericho is Fat Jimmy’s favourite cousin
That’s when I realise
I’m going to have to shoot my way out

(She is my girl, she is my girl)

We dance the tango til the Moon is red
We dance the tango til we cannot feel our heads
We dance the tango into the night
We dance the tango though we know that nothing is right
And I will take her
Somewhere no-one has been before
I will take her somewhere because she is my girl
I will take her somewhere because she is my girl

bushytunes Christmas Island

Once upon a time there was a crazy idea: to create, record and upload a musical track every day for a year. And the idea floated round and round the planet, looking for a place to call home. After a long time of searching and wishing and watching, the idea chose to make a nest in the brain of a bushy fellow, coming to his aid and guiding him out of the doldrums, back to a magical pathway... ... more
