about

Previously unreleased. Recorded late 1970s/early 1980s. Forwarded to Toni Basil to use as her follow up single to "Mickey" but her version never got beyond the demo stage. Clare had previously sung in Flackoff, also on this album.

lyrics

I waited in the café on the corner of the street just like you said
We measured time in coffee cups until we knew the world had gone to bed
I really liked the hot car ride and I could grow to like a one-track mind
Don’t need to be a doctor to make a house call

Take me back to my place
‘Cos that’s the bit that I like
Take me back to my place
‘Cos that’s the bit that
I like best
I like best
I like best
I like best

People say that you and I go further than we used to go before
They pick up all the rubbish and they lay it down outside their own front doors
I’d like to give them the time of day but whenever I look they’re not looking my way
Give me the password and promise not to change

Chorus

Saturday was not the place to run away to when we heard the bells
Now its quiet on the corners and we’re one of many others in our cells
We used to be the time and place; we were so sure of winning
I’ve re-done the bathroom, there’s a lot more space so

Chorus
