A quick one while he's an Island?
More on Islands ...
From their latest album, "Arm's Way," check out "In the Rushes" (in addition to all of the other tracks) on the band's MySpace page. The multi-part song ends with an homage to The Who's "A Quick One While He's Away." But the lyrics are all Thorburn-ed up, of course.
The original here (Part VI: You Are Forgiven).
Island's lyrics:
Cellos, cellos, cellos, cellos (x2)
I can't believe it
Believe that I had seen it
Remember who was in my arms
Remember when I had arms
It's like a dream the way that it unfolded
Like I'd been in the rushes without knowing
I kissed it but I must admit
I missed it now I do forget
Like I had been in the rushes without knowing
You are forgotten (x100)
Ah ... I remember fondly those days, back when I had arms ...
