Angels In The Sky (Acoustic Fry​-​up Mix)

from Joining Fee by Peculiar Disco Moves

/

about

Angels In The Sky is the B-side to Joining fee. This is an acoustic arrangement.

The song is based on a builder who moves from small village life to the big city, discovering he is gay in the process, much to the shock of his friends and family. Their unwillingness to accept him creates the conflict explored in the song.

lyrics

Last time I saw him he was filling up a skip
And his builder mates were ogling some pretty teenage chick
He said 'You coming to the pub? We'll have a pint or two'
I said 'I can't mate 'cos i'll be late the missus makes the rules'

Why do you fly like angels in the sky?
Why do you act as if it's all a big surprise?
You've been laughed at before and it's never made you cry
What happened to you Jimmy?
Why d'you wanna fly like angels in the sky?

Two years on and he's moved out of the town
He's bought a plush apartment cost one hundred thousand pounds
I'm finally going to the city chase the women drink the beer
But he's not a fan of either all he wants to do is shed a tear

Why do you fly like angels in the sky?
Why do you act as if it's all a big surprise?
You've been laughed at before and it's never made you cry
What happened to you Jimmy?
Why d'you wanna fly like angels in the sky?

He said 'Hey there tutti frutti, you been hot and cold on me all night what's wrong?'
He said 'Hey there you've got fabulous hair, I love your style it's sending me into a state of envy and despair'
I said 'Now then buddy shall we go for a curry? Shall we get really lairy like it's 1999?'
He said 'Hey hun I've got a loaded gun and in this room of Casanovas gonna find me the one to take me there'

Quaint little village where the days are all the same
His family they'll disown him when they hear of how he's changed
A letter beats a phone call 'cos he has to change his voice
He flocked the nest and he'll do best to hide his lifestyle choice

Why do you fly like angels in the sky?
Why do you act as if it's all a big surprise?
You've been laughed at before and it's never made you cry
What happened to you Jimmy?
Why d'you wanna fly like angels in the sky?
