about

WORD
3rd February 2019 - Brooklyn NY.
WORD bookstore is a very hip place owned by Christine who had been instrumental in getting us out to the US. Perhaps we were a little punchy pitching our last concert against the Super Bowl but a crowd showed up and filled their downstairs venue. As we sang the last notes our voices gave out and we headed back to our hosts in New Jersey just in time to watch the half-time commercials.

WE ARE THE FOXES
Inspired by Glow by Ned Beauman.

lyrics

We are the foxes working around the town We are the foxes working for you Bring out your boxes before you settle down We are the foxes working for you
Don’t be afraid cos you know what we prefer Smile on your faces, that’s what we do Don’t need to pay us,
We’re happy in our work
We are the foxes working for you
Running rings round
Covers more ground We’re foxes in a big rush Jumping on a night bus City lights glow Like a light show Keeping strange hours Smelling all the flowers
And in the morning
When all our work is done
Shifts are changing and you’ll be up soon We’ll hear you coming
Then we’ll be on our way
We are the foxes working for you
