A trader in furs living in exile
Boy what a kook
Look at that passport
Stale bread and paper without privilege
If you live here learn the language
When the rain hit the roof
With the sound of a finished kiss
Like when a lip lifts from a lip
I took the wrong road round
A room in a lighthouse
Near the park
The ghosts in the next room hear you cough
Time drags on sundays spent in mayfair
With all your riches, why arent you there?
The wind acts like a magnet
And pulls the leaf from the tree
And the towns lost its breath
I took the wrong road round
Handsome is good, pretty is better
What was that phrase
Grace under pressure?
Blind by the light bulb
Blood to the bank
Lost all yours letters when the ship sank
In the disjointed breaking light
The soft blue approach of the water
Makes a sound you wont forget
I took the wrong road round
Stranded at low-tide where the river bends
Wouldnt you know it, thats how life ends
Lucky at cards, thats an old lie
Lucky in love, thats how life ends
Well the turncoats turned around
When they heard the sound of the bell
Dropped their coins into the well
I took the wrong road round
Started out oliver, ended up fagin
Dont you worry, its my problem
Whats my name, whats my number?
Im the lonely one
Its just at the end of the day
When the light makes its slow move away
That I know all I can say is
I took the wrong road round
Gambled with risk
Paid you back with risk
So now you know who your friends are
Theyll steel your shadow when your backs turned
Bouquets of flowers
Lessons over
When the rain hit the roof
With the sound of a finished kiss
Like when a lip lifts from a lip
I took the wrong road round
The Go-Betweens were an indie rock band formed in Brisbane, Australia, in 1977 by singer-songwriters and guitarists Robert Forster and Grant McLennan. Over the years they collaborated with musicians like Lindy Morrison (drums), Robert Vickers (bass) and Amanda Brown (violin, oboe, guitar and backing vocals). After a first phase of activity that ended in late 1989, Forster and McLennan reunited the band in 2000 with a new lineup. McLennan's death from a heart attack in 2006 led to the definitive dissolution of The Go-Betweens. Their sound is characterized by catchy melodies, introspective lyrics and influences from post-punk and Australian folk music. Among the most representative songs: "Cattle and Cane", "Streets of Your Town" and "Lee Remick".
