Theres no time for finess it may be here by morning .....
THE SOLITARY TANGO
Sitting on the 13th floor, looking over London
The clouds are filling up with dead mens tears
Everyones feeling like their  a little bit closer
as we all sit here facing each others fears
21days
and counting
Since anyone held me close or held me near

I'm doing the solitary tango 1234 and 5
Slowly slowly I run cause its coming here

I'm doing the solitary tango 1234 and 5
Slowly slowly I run cause its coming here


Got money, got no job just worry
Keeping me awake I feel I'm doing time
One day meshes into another
Time is going round it's just time time

I'm doing the solitary tango 1234 and 5
Slowly slowly I run cause its coming here

I'm doing the solitary tango 1234 and 5
Slowly slowly I run cause its coming here
Yeah!

Solo

I'm doing the solitary tango 1234 and 5
Slowly slowly I run cause its coming here

I'm doing the solitary tango 1234 and 5
Slowly slowly I run cause its coming here

That drumbeat and accordion groove is fucking stellar. I love it. Like a fucked-up sea shanty with Elvis on vocals. Giving me a slight Doors vibe too.

Yep - that lyric is topical, clever and accurate!

Cracking tune... such a cool take on the crazy shit going on. Masterstroke putting the accordion front and centre. I would imagine Frank Zappa would be giving this the thumbs up ????

Good song Trevor, it was a lot more relevant last year when covid started. I love the infectious melody with the accordion. Cool lyrics and vocals :)
