From the great Rattlesnakes album. Although he now lives in Mnhatten, English born Lloyd made his name on the Glasgow college circuit in the early 80s. He had a very literate writing style, highly descriptive lyrics dropping in anything from book quotes and actress names to french phrases and street names. Rattlesnakes 1984 album is one of the best 80s albums (NME regularly state it as a top 10 80s album) and is now acknowledged as a brit pop landmark.
This song along with "ready to be heartbroken...) are my personal favourites from the album.
This song reflects a summer spent with a girl and her Mothers' 2CV.
