Was it a well known song....sung or hummed by people around that time,or something form an obscure album you owned .... how old are you ? |
Obscure indie... but a big indie hit at the time (not troubling the real charts).
It was along the lines of Starsailor, JJ72, the Delays, Badly Drawn Boy... | |

I've remembered some more lyrics (from a verse, the bit earlier was the chorus)...
Our under the counter encounter
Well it was a let down
I need another fix to fix me up
Not another comedoooooown
(chorus)
It's hard having higher thoughts
When you're on income support

Not 'The Disappointed' by XTC, that seems to be mainly about Blue Action...
The disappointed
All shuffle round in circles
Their placards look the same
With a picture and a name
Of the ones who broke their hearts
The disappointed
All congregate at my house
Their voices sob with grief
That they want me to be chief
Of the tribe with broken hearts
Once, I had no sympathy
For those destroyed and thrown away by love
Seems, your ring upon my finger
Signifies that I've become the spokesman of
The disappointed
Will bear me on their shoulders
To a secret shadow land
Where a somber marching band
Plays a tune for broken hearts
And day grows darker now
Everywhere, everywhere
The disappointed
Are coming in their millions
They're spilling from the bus
At a monument to us
Made of bits of broken heart
Once, I had no sympathy
For those destroyed and thrown away by love
Seems, your ring upon my finger
Signifies that I've become the spokesman of
The disappointed
Are growing every second
They blot the sun to black
At the bottom of the pack
I'm the king of broken hearts
The disappointed
The disappointed
The disappointed
The disappointed
The disappointed
The disappointed
The disappointed
The disappointed
It couldn't be 'The Worker' by Fischer Z, from ten years earlier, could it?
The hated journey on the train,
Always been the same,
Looking out windows,
Second class and second best,
What a waste of time,
Sleep for five stops in a row,
Prepare yourself to go,
Waterloo station,
Bought a '69 Capri,
Failed the M.O.T.,
What a waste of time,
The Worker, the worker,
The worker, the worker.
Always kiss the wife goodbye,
Often wonder why,
At seven in the morning?
Think it's time we had a change,
Wouldn't that be strange,
What a waste of time.
The worker, the worker,
The worker, the worker. |  |

I think early. It's a relatively unknown indie band not someone big like XTC. |
Good to see XTC described as "big"! :-) |  |

I assumed you could have misheard or misremembered them... but mainly I just wanted to get these lyrics out there - because the Fischer-Z one especially are so droll.
Sorry. | |
