lyrics

A Pollock of dried white and clotted red
A mosaic of broken dom perignon
Factor lipstip graffiti says
that “youth is wasted on the young”
And the peruvian is dotted with
the butts of a hundred menthol cigarettes,
scattered like soldiers in a Fuller flick,
among the gitanes and freixenets

Wilted dreams whirr by
Soap down the fallin souls every night
Lingering smoke in a velvet sky
A blue rose

Muddled like thoughts
in the brain of a drunk ingenue
flirtateous mementos in verse float by
on a current of stale rosé
to this blue rose lullaby
Down the gutter with the jizz and the jazz
run your oily Columbine tears
serenaded by Carmens and Camilles,
by Macbeths and King Lears

Wilted dreams whirr by...

about

Strangers On A Train Copenhagen, Denmark

Cabaret, sea shantys, polka, vaudeville and echoes of tango all meet up when Strangers On A Train take the stage. It is music that unfolds after dark and will take you on a ride through the dark side of life with songs about lust, temptation, fornication, covert beauty and drunken suffering.

We promise you loads of harmonica, music for your dancing shoes and stories from the unknown taverns.
