Recorded at Green Door Studios
Produced by John Critchley and Broken Bricks
Written by Marlon Chaplin

lyrics

Deep in the streets of the American life,
A meaningless noun he calls his wife,
Dies on the steps of the kitchen stairs,
Screams aloud as he tugs her hair,

And the TV broken, smashed on the floor,
Electrical currents a'running out the door,
Walls stained red with the blood of she,
The neighbour next door is fast asleep,

Heaven and hell was a great big lie,
And I never wanted to know,
Another day spent in that dusty old room,
It happens when life goes boom,

Now I'm running back again,
I got to get to the end before tomorrow is spent,
With a one way ticket to Mexico,
To meet a man called Fidelio,

I got my eyes in my pocket,
My hand on my shirt,
I got nothing to pay,
Nothing to work for and,
It's just another day,
And I think that I lost my way,

Heaven and hell was a great big lie,
And I never wanted to know,
Another day spent in that dusty old room,
It happens when life goes boom,

Now I'm running back again,
I got to get to the end before tomorrow is spent,
With a one way ticket to Mexico,
To meet a man called Fidelio,

I got my eyes in my pocket,
My hand on my shirt,
I got nothing to pay,
Nothing to work for and,
It's just another day,
And I think that I lost my way,

Heaven and hell was a great big lie,
And I never wanted to know,
Another day spent in that dusty old room,
It happens when life goes boom.
