Today's Happy Hour Soundtrack

Squeeze...

Now she's gone and I'm back on the beat
Oh, a stain on my notebook says nothing to me
Oh, now she's gone and I'm out with a friend
With lips full of passion and coffee in bed

Now she's gone, I'm back on the beat
A stain on my notebook says nothing to me
Now she's gone, I'm back on the beat
A stain on my notebook says nothing to me
Oh coffee in bed, coffee in bed

The images in the video are seriously good for us caffeine lovers, especially the ones depicting the brewing of Turkish coffee.  That said, the images don't get to the gestalt of the song... but I suppose that's not too terribly unusual.  We won't elaborate on the concept of "coffee in bed," except to say we've got a few o' those tee shirts... and the memories that go with 'em.

Squeeze, OTOH, is one of my favorite '80s bands.  I came to know them while I was stationed in Ol' Blighty in the early '80s and they've occupied a spot in my heart ever since.  They wrote and performed some of the best pure pop, evah.  Good stuff, Maynard.
