Biografía:
The Stranglers siempre supieron, unas veces más afortunadas que otras, especialmente en su primera y fenomenal etapa, pero casi siempre con interés, acomodarse a las tendencias sonoras del momento.
Así, con influencias de la Velvet Underground, Television, The Kinks, Zappa, The Rolling Stones, The Doors o, en general, el garage-rock/proto-punk 60’s, pasaron con facilidad del pub rock al punk, la new wave o al pop de sintetizadores, en una larga carrera principiada a mediados de los años 70.

E G F#m
When we had that to loosen our minds
E F#m
Hey little baby in the front row, be kind
G A F#m

A F#m G
There's a place with a lot of eyes
A F#m G
Strange smoke perfume around the peacock guys
A G F#m
And the girls, they move their heat
E G F#m
To the impulsive, compulsive beat
E G F#m
But that's another place, another time
