lyrics

I think you’d better play another game
With your lovers when they call you
While I’m hanging around
I miss those early days when you said
It was over but your bitterness
was meaning come back

D’you really want to share all your space
all your grace, all your secrets
with these devious friends
You still believe you’re sane, I’m aware
they don’t care ‘bout your feelings
Why don’t you let ‘em go

Meet me tomorrow
To get another chance

I like your body shape, all your nails
your new hair and your canine teeth
when I raise a smile
According to my plans, just before
this weekend you’ll forgive me
And I’ll forget your split ends

I’m not that kind of man almost fair
always careful, in love
with every girl in this town
There’s something in the way
I’m awake, she’s a waitress
Please believe me,
you’re the one that I want

Leave it all behind
We’re gonna rise again
You can’t destroy the world we know
You can’t destroy the love we own

I think you’d better play another game
With your lovers when they call you
While I’m hanging around
I’m not that kind of man almost fair
always careful, in love
with every girl in this town

I like your body shape, all your snails
your new hair and your canine teeth
when I raise a smile
There’s something in the way
I’m awake, she’s awaiting
For me, but you’re the one that I want

Leave it all behind
We’re gonna rise again
You can’t destroy the world we know
You can’t destroy the love we own

about

Sterbus Rome, Italy

Sterbus are from Rome, but their true musical spirit wanders much further afield, from the joyful power-pop of The Lemon Twigs to the rainy Portland of Elliott Smith and certainly all the South of England's ground-soils Cardiacs and XTC.

"Solar Barbecue" marks their comeback with a new ALL-INSTRUMENTAL opus centered around funny chords, frantic paces and exhilarating arrangements.
