"Bitten by the Tailfly" as written by and Guy Edward John/potter Garvey....
You're a girl in this vicinity
I'm a dog without a collar on
This cattle-market cabaret
Is the Sabbath every Saturday
I'm full of wit and chivalry
Until you've given in to me
I'm a dog without a collar on
You're a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
It's a silent taxi ride away
But it's everything to get you there
You'll know when you are bitten-shy
But still you will return my stare
From a crush of blushing brides-to-be
You barely have a blossom on
Your eyes betray your diaries
I'm a dog without a collar on
I'll take you home
Get you on your own
Sweetness, don't be bashful
Your eyes betray your diaries
I'm a dog without a collar on
This cattle-market cabaret
Is the Sabbath every Saturday
I'm full of wit and chivalry
Until you've given in to me
I'm a dog without a collar on
You're a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
It's a silent taxi ride away
But it's everything to get you there
You'll know when you are bitten-shy
But still you will return my stare
From a crush of blushing brides-to-be
You barely have a blossom on
Your eyes betray your diaries
I'm a dog without a collar on
I'll take you home
Get you on your own
Sweetness, don't be bashful
Your eyes betray your diaries

0General CommentIt's about an exceedinly randy guy trying to pull a girl in a club on a Saturday night - the most drunken girl there who is the easiest to seduce. She's obviously been in that situation a lot of times hence "bitten by the tailfly" but she'll never change.Cazzdevilon May 20, 2006 Link

0General CommentTailfly is a cocktai but a really harsh one, very alcoholic. I think the song is about a drunk guy wanting to pull a girl but he is being very honest about it...bzoocowon May 23, 2007 Link

0General CommentI think this song deals with the horror of a late weekend night in every city. The bars have chucked their vomitous clients out onto the street, and the predatory males are hunting their latest quarry.niteflite01on August 09, 2008 Link
