After Hours Lyrics
how in the world will i make it to work
in the morning?
i've been drinking since we clocked out
and now it's 4am
But they're such a generous couple
are freida and pauline
When they offer a late night session,
you dont want to offend.
The shutters come down
and thats what they're for
we dont want to invite in the law
It's not often the case that were forced
to sacrifice the jukebox.
But the plug always has to be pulled
on the quiz machine
So you invibe all you can
cos you're partaking in something forbiden
And time after time you'll wake up
face down in the la train.
We speak in hushed tones
And dim down the lights
we're staying after hours tonight
Where am I now?
Where am I now?
Where am I now?
I dont remember a thing,
I dont remember, remember a thing
Lord only knows what kind of poison i'm drinking
I can't read the label
So i'll just dance off my cares like Fred Aistaire
up here on the table
The shutters come down
and thats what they're for
we dont want to invite in the law
we speak in hushed tones
and dim down the lights
we're staying after hours tonight!!

Wooo-hoo!!!! I love The Bluetones. They have to be the most under-rated performing artists EVER. I love the video to this.. its just too cutesque'
I love them too :) I've always thought this song belongs in a music for some reson :/. A good tune - not one of their best though - yet I love pretty much all of their stuff!
Oh btw - i meant 'musical' - realised a year on hehe!!
Lord knows why but this song reminds me of the end of high school.
And time after time you'll wake up face down in the la train.
I do believe it's latrine. As in toliet. As in you are puking your guts up from drinking too much the night before.
Surely its:
"But they're such a generous couple, ALFREDO and Pauline..."
Plus: "You IMBIBE all you can" - it means drink! Invibe is not a word.
The lyrics are written in the insert for the album, how hard can it be?
