Not helped by the fact that lead singer James Reyne is the hardest Australian singer in the world to understand (except on 'Wuthering Heights', where he makes Kate Bush sound like James Reyne, lol!), I wonder if some of the lyrics to this song from the 'Boys Light Up' album cover are correct (eg. 'art-decor' vs my 'Art Deco', which makes much more sense), and who knows what 'Bombay Rock' is outside of Victoria? Bobby rocks (socks) works so much better here! You don't want another Melbourne band sounding like Skyhooks, lol. My lyrics are so much better - I should get a writing credit! (he says, humbly)
