No, no.

No, no.
Stand back.

Yeah, my timing was perfect.
My timing was perfect.
My timing was...

Stand back.

Yeah, my timing was perfect.
My timing was perfect.
My timing was...

(lyrics look great, thanks stray) this song sounds very autobiographical.... 'i knew a who was great... but we went on tour and i didn't see you for awhile. i came back to town, looked you up and now its all wrong. you're different, your crowd's different... and it's just my luck'

def the most catchy and melodic song on the album... tho lyrical depth is missing. that's fine..still love The 'Field!
