Lyric discussion by coryoon 

Cover art for hey andy lyrics by Roland Orzabal

I'm not sure, but I think this song is about the death of a cat. The line "All your lives add up to nine" is an indication, along with the album's title "Tomcats Screaming Outside." Whether it's a cat in the literal or figurative sense, I'm not sure! ;) Roland's lyrics are a bit more ambiguous this time around.

This song is great though, with good drum programming, great synth work, superb music composition and definite class. From a musical standpoint, this is one of Roland's best works.
