about

A swing tune about being a long way from home.

lyrics

I'm always leaving.
Don't know why, there must be something else.
I'm out of season.
I don't mind.
And in the evening, I gibber like a cartoon 'neath the hangnail moon.
That moon is grinning. She don't mind
I'm contemplating.

No time for sleeping.
Take it in. I've got no money.
Don't speak the language.
She don't mind.
And in the evening, I see her face in a soon 'neath the hangnail moon.
I'm contemplating my homeward journey.

about

Oscar the Band Melbourne, Australia

Oscar the Band craft pseudo-jazz, junk funk and anti-pop with a keen sense of the inappropriate. Started in late 2000 as a 2 piece featuring guitar and trumpet, we got our name with the addition of a drummer who, not owning a kit, played rubbish bins.
