about

An electropop song about the trials of going out with two women at the same time.

The song was later covered by Irish pop-rock outfit Brazen Lungs. You can view their version here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGwPkq1t0VM

lyrics

I had two girls,
That way everybody wins,
Had to make a choice,
Now I'm paying for my sins.

My conscience said
"What are you doing to them?"
So I retired the one
And put the other to bed.

To run to Toronto,
Dig a hole if you say so,
To run to Toronto,
Cut a hole in the ozone.

Oh, me and my girl
We are living so honest,
I'm smelling so sweet
You could bottle my sweat.

But sometimes I think
'Bout what I have left behind,
My heart bleeds
When that girl is on my mind.

To run to Toronto,
Dig a hole if you say so,
To run to Toronto,
Cut a hole in the ozone.

Can you?

I've settled down,
That's what everybody says,
But I've met a new girl
Who's relit the fire in my head.

To run to Toronto,
Dig a hole if you say so,
To run to Toronto,
Cut a hole in the ozone.

The foursome specialise in quirky, clever lyrics set to catchy melodic hooks and spiffy electro-folk-pop arrangements. ... more
