Taken from "Same Place The Fly Got Smashed" 1990
"Rimming an ashtray - face in the light
Local mix-up, someone fix up what we broke up
The pleasure seekers are out there tonight
Local mix-up, someone fix up what we broke up
You as a person have got to think fast
Cause this is a party that's not gonna last
And this is the same place the fly got smashed
Dress him Dress him Dress him Dress him
Dress him Dress him Dress him like a queen
..."
Early GBV with changing tempo's and style. Sort of doom-indie at the start but then suddenly skips up to a cheerful chorus. Shows the early potential of Bobs writing and stretches to an epic 6 minutes and 40 seconds. "And that's the Electrifying Conlcusion he sings". How apt.
Dedicated to Anthony Wilson, music mogul and founder of Factory Records who sadly died today of Cancer. RIP.

I'm sorry to hear about Tony Wilson. RIP, Tony, and thanks for bringing us all those great bands.
Carries along the boozy air of SPTFGS- but as drunken prog, goes on a little too long.
Great mood, though and the middle eight sounds nothing so much as an outtake from Self Inflicted Arial Nostalgia (one of thee overlooked GBV albums).
