Flashback

By Danielle Dax (1987)
On album Dark Adapted Eye (1988), Inky Bloaters (1987)

Dark Adapted Eye
I never go by
labels
I never sure
See a bottle of
good things baby
And want for more
I always listen in
HEY YEH, YEH, YEH,
YEH, YEH
Keep a tally on all
the choices
honey
If they should
show

Flashback-wipe
that frown
Flashback-when
they put you
down
Flashback-never
show
Flashback-what
you really know

You pay your money
to hold me baby
I'm not to blame
For any otherswho
used you badly
Oh such a shame
I always want
what's easy
HEY YEH, YEH, YEH,
YEH, YEH
So intent on
a living
heaven honey
You'll never know

Flashback-wipe
that frown
Flashback-when
they put you
down
Flashback-never
show
Flashback-what
you really know

Next minute you're
in there fighting
The stakes
are high
Never won any
major battles
But I always try
I maybe will
someday
HEY YEH, YEH, YEH,
YEH, YEH
All nickels and
moonlight-
dreaming honey
Oh what a game

Flashback-wipe
that frown
Flashback-when
they put you
down
Flashback-never
show
Flashback-what
you really know
