Angst In My Pants, by Sparks

[the_gneech]

I hope it doesn't show
It'll go away
It's just a passing phase
It'll go away

You can dress nautical
learn to tie knots
take lots of Dramamine
out on your yacht
But when you're all alone
and nothing bites
you'll wish you stayed at home
with someone nice

But when you think
you made it disappear
It comes again,
"Hello, I'm here!" and
I've got angst in my pants

You can be smart as hell
know how to add
Know how to figure things
on yellow pads
Answer so no one knows
what you just said
But when you're all alone
you and your head

What's the computer say
it's mumbling now
It says, "Hey Joe"
It's spelled it out and
you've got angst in your pants
You've got angst in your pants

But when you think
you've made it disappear
You're sure you made it disappear
And you've still got angst in your pants

I hope it doesn't show
It'll go away
It's just a passing phase
It'll go away

I hope it doesn't show
It'll go away
Give it a hundred years
It won't go away

And I've got angst in my pants
I've got angst in my pants

AHHHHHHHHH YESSSSSSSS! Where did you hear it? On an internet radio station?

Never heard them called The Sparks before, and it gave me a crunch of mental gears. They're just Sparks. (Reminded me of a dreadfully researched book which talked glibly of 'Paul McCartney and The Wings').

This town ain't big enough for the both of us, (dum-dum-dum-dum)
And it ain't me who's gonna leave (fx: ricochet)

Ah, the Mael brothers. For someone who has a voice like a dog whistle, they're really quite good.
