lyrics

BIG YELLOW BOX
(Words by David Myers / Music by Malcolm Moore)


V1. Romance is gone, no chivalrous act
It cheapens me so but the room isn't taxed
Stack them and pack them, off with my rocks, and
Throw me the keys to a big yellow box

V2. Room for a king, a lamp hung above
Where there's just enough light to show you the love
Romance is dead & chivalry lost
Throw me the keys to a big yellow box

Br1. Face recognition assists the connive
As long as I'm not recognised.

Ch1. So thanks for this evening,
I hope you come too.
Thanks for this evening,
I won't love myself or love you.

V3. Romance is lost, a thing of the past.
I'll pay in advance for as long as I last.
Give me good reason to bring to a close
My love in a box, those impersonal blows

Br3. Face recognition no need for disguise
As long as I'm not recognised.

Ch2. So thanks for this evening,
I hope you come too.
Thanks for this evening,
I won't love myself or love you.


V4. Friendship & union is all out of stock
You'll find what you need in my big yellow box

Br4.Face recognition is all that's required
As long as I'm not recognised.

Ch3. So thanks for this evening,
I hope you come too.
Thanks for this evening,
I don't love myself
So thanks for this evening,
I hope you come too.
Thanks for this evening,
I don't love myself or love you.

about

The 1957 Tail-Fin Fiasco Essex, UK

In 1957, Harley Earl designed the most beautiful automobile the world would ever see.

By 1960 the tail-fin was all but extinct.

In 2013 Harley Earl appeared to Essex chancers David Myers and Malcolm Moore in a dream.

‘Create melody and meaning that will allow the human race to move freely and without drag...

Be aer-o-dy-NAS-mic.

Be The 1957 Tail-Fin Fiasco’.
