Talk to her That's right It could mean more than you think Talk to her That's right And you don't have to lose a thing Leave the boots and saddle outside And you could make her happy again Laugh about the time She threw the dinner at you And in the coconut grove You can't imagine the scene Another bus unloads We're still waiting to leave Talk to her, that's nice Or you could make a murder begin Breathe on her, that's right Once more, you will be her friend She's the only one you know Where you're from and where you've been And what remains unsaid Can leave you hanging in between I spent a lot of time In the transit lounge And I wasn't sure Where I was going now The papers I read Were yesterday's news Not 100% sure What I did with my shoes Lying on the floor Of a transit lounge There'll be no announcements made You better make sure You don't sleep too sound There'll be no announcements made There'll be no announcements made And you can dream about the things You'd like to do before you die Break him out, the one Who's waiting for his moment to shine And all the stupid things I said Will haunt you, will linger, I guess And in the coconut grove You can't imagine the scene Another bus unloads We're still waiting to leave A camera flash goes off See the tallest man alive And Thai massage his feet Before this long plane ride |

Just saw them on a re-run of Austin City Limits — a great show.

I believe the drummer is Matt Sherrod (ex Beck drummer). Perhaps your confusing this with Neil's son Elroy who has played backup guitar with them (and whose own band has opened some shows for them as well).

Every time I've heard this I think of Flight of the Conchords and not for the obvious NZ connection

For those of you who haven't noticed, Excelsior hasn't been around for a few weeks. I don't know if Bill finally gave him the axe or he just plain gave up. Either way, please stop re-posting his comments. Thanks.

Nice tune. Kinda reminds me of Bloody Tourist by 10cc. Maybe it's the airline travel theme. A big fan of both bands and their mates.
