Song story and background information

A catchy pop song about a one night stand. The track uses a sparse synth arrangement, overlayed with three tracks of Fraser's guitars, and held together with triggered percussive samples from Roland's classic TR-808 drum machine. Features on the album 'Younger Than Some, Smarter Than Most'.

Lyrics
I check my watch, it's half past six
You stretch your tights and fix your lips
I meet the lads at the Rose In June
You down a gin and play some tunes

At closing time I join the queue
I catch your eye - you see me too
We spend all evening talking small
Then end up in your front hall

This is how I feel the morning after
With no more music and no more laughter
The night before was fast and free
But how long will you stay with me?

When I wake up I'm next to you
Is this the start of something new?
Your makeup smudged, your hair a mess
I don't feel well, I must confess

This is how I feel the morning after
With no more music and no more laughter
The night before was fast and free
But how long will you stay with me?

You mumble something I don't hear
I just want to disappear
I pick my clothes up off the floor
And you direct me to the door

This is how I feel the morning after
With no more music and no more laughter
The night before was fast and free
But how long will you stay with me?

This is how I feel the morning after
With no more music and no more laughter
The night before was fast and free
But how long will you stay with me?
