about

Written by Richard Key who plays bass for the band

lyrics

She was a cashier in a coffee bar
I was the new boy in town
I was smitten by her confidence
The promise in her eyes
I was thinking of mannequins
Of pink flamingo's dancing
Unspoken grace in the way she moved
A shadow in a lighted window

From the moment she spoke I was wasted
Done by the song in her voice
Blown away by the power of innocence
of vision and fancy
A face of beauty and wonder
Lips just made for french kissing
Two hearts just waiting to be broken
Hidden in the colours of rainbows

I was strutting like a Zulu dancer
High on the prospect of a kill
Throbbing drums on an Impi morning
Driven by songs of sorrow
Worn out by promises of passion
and consequences of lust
Shattered dreams and expectations
The first time and being in love
