The Sound Of Speed

from Dreams And Tinsel by Men With Day Jobs

/

about

Happy snaps from a terrific Apple Isle trip – complete with Tasmanian Devils, seals, fairy penguins, Tassie friends and their works, mixed-up kid quotes, and the grizzled subterranean wisdom of Dave the Cave Guide. Life changes that took our friends to live there – a move more than one of us are considering following, a bit down the track. S tafford’s hyperactive lead vocal is set against some punchy drums, bubbles of keyboard and exhuberant pings of guitar harmonics.

lyrics

There are fairies on the sand, standing frozen in the red lights / Devils close at hand - more rabbits in our headlights

As we roar along the road, faster than the sound of speed

There’s a whisper in the caves, many eons in the making / Whiskers in the waves, see the liberties we’re taking

As we race across the bay, faster than the sound of speed

No misunderhearings, it’s a long way down / All at once we’re on shaky ground - better slow down…

There’ll be changes in the yield, deeper than our learning / Destinies unsealed - the tide is slowly turning

We’ll go soaring to the south,faster than the sound of speed…
