Can’t get it when you want
Have to take it when you can
I can’t see you when I want to
Can’t even hold your hand
When I’m lonely, in the middle of the night
Can’t reach out for you to hold me tight
Can’t get it when you want it
I want it all the time
I can’t see you when I need you
Have to wait for you to make time for me
My heart is in prison
Yes it is, and you’ve thrown away the key
But nobody else does it like you do
Hate to be so far away from you
Can’t get it when you want it
I want it all the time
I’m desperate for your love
Like a garden needs the rain
If I don’t get some soon
I know I’m gonna go insane
Can’t get it when you want it
I want it all the time
Can’t get it when you want it
Girl, you’d better take it, better take it when you can
Can’t see you when I need you
I can’t even hold your hand
When I’m lonely, in the middle of the night
Can’t reach out for you to hold me tight
Can’t get it when you want it
Lord, I want it all the time
Yeah, I want it all the time
Want it early in the morning
I want it late in the evening
For breakfast, lunch and dinner
And in between, now
Every day, yeah
Lord, I want it all the time

from the many to the few
it makes no difference what you do
you don't notice them,
but you see them every day
you may be livin in a palace or a dungeon
just remember what they say about london
no matter where you are
you're never more than seven feet away
if your tower's made from glass
& you throw stones at the other half
better watch it that
them stones don't ricochet
you can eat it & have it too - in abundance
as long as you remember what they say about london
that no matter where you are,
you're never more than seven feet away
rich & poor living side by side
you'll never change it - but you can try
as it's always been,
that's how it's gonna stay
the sun don't come up where it goes down
& the days are grey in this old town
where you can be anywhere
you can go anywhere
you can be anyone
can't hide, no matter how far you can run
livin in a palace, or a dungeon
as long as you remember what they say about london
that you're never more than seven feet away

Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day
And this city swells with hunger
And this city, it is bruised
And this city swells with mourning
And this city cuts its wounds
And this city's bleeding anguish
And this city smells of pain
And this city moans its anthem
As your life it sighs away
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day
And your angels, they've renounced you
And your angels are no more
And they've left you for the city
And the city is their whore
And your angels, they've betrayed you
And they're rejoicing in your pain
And your angels lie in wait now
So that they can steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day
And your funeral was deserted
And nobody sang your song
And no-one heard you scream, man
Because your angels were long gone
And you who once was sacred
Have been by them condemned
The very ones who blessed you
Now they celebrate your end
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures lay in wait, they tried to steal your name
Left to die, where they crucify the sinners
The vultures they smiled on your dying day

Promenade Blue
by Nick Waterhouse
supported by 6 fans who also own “In The Blue Corner”
Thanks to the nice promotion coming with the new album, I remembered to acquire Nick's last album. I read in a (rave) review to the new one, The Fooler, that Promenade Blue felt like Nick doing what Nick does (and did before) might have reached a dead end. I allow myself to disagree strongly, this was - again - a very fine selection of R&B, soul, exotica, doo-wop and what -had-you in the 60s (and maybe 50s). Btw, stereo, this time ;-) And in shiny HD (24/88)!

Why Don't You Go Home / Cocktail De Medianoche

The quality of Fingier's output has been nothing short of stellar and Why Don't You Go Home might just be his best track to date.
