Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip

Every morning about this time

a-crying get a job.
After breakfast, everyday,
she throws the want ads right my way
And never fails to say,
Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip
Mum mum mum mum mum mum
Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na
And when I get the paper
I read it through and through
And my girl never fails to say
If there is any work for me,
And when I go back to the house
I hear the woman's mouth
Preaching and a crying,
Tell me that I'm lying 'bout a job
That I never could find.
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Sha na na na, sha na na na na,
Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip
Mum mum mum mum mum mum
Get a job Sha na na na, sha na na na na

(I) RELEASE THE BATS (Flying Nun)

I am very proud, honoured and just a little humbled to announce yesboyicecream's release of the new (and utterly brilliant) album by New Zealand's finest independent popular beat combo, The Bats...The Guilty Office will be available in all self-respecting record shops around our most European of continents from June 1st...do support your local shops.

If you simply cannot wait that long, you can pick up a copy directly from the band on their European Tour, who will be happy to sell it to you with good grace, charm and a secret handshake for a reasonable price. Tour dates are available from the yesboyicecream site.

Just to whet your appetite, here is some random footage not related to The Bats put together to not really accompany the rather brilliant closing song, The Orchard, on their rather brilliant new album, The Guilty Office.



Like Water in Your Hands (via SoundCloud)
A beautiful, beautiful track from the *new* Bats album - The Guilty Office, available from www.yesboyicecream.com -"the Bats nail the symphonic/lo-fi use melodic mix succinctly, showing the Guilty Office to be this year's alternative pop album" (Artrocker).



Pick up a copy of the album for the recession-proof sum of €10 (including postage & packaging) directly from the yesboyicecream shop.

Finally, here's a really cool article about Flying Nun from the Guardian....

I don't care if I lose my mind...I'm already cursed- La Det Swinge

I don't care what they say, Alexander's no Hanne Krogh (1971). Although he was better dressed than either Bobbysock.

Eurovision winner in 1964.

Disappointingly creepy lyrics.




Non ho l'età
Non ho l'età per amarti
Non ho l'età per uscire sola con te

E non avrei
Non avrei
Nulla da dirti
Perché, tu sai
Molte più cose di me

Lascia che io viva
Un amore romantico
Nell' attesa
Che venga quel giorno
Ma ora no

Non ho l'età
Non ho l'età per amarti
Non ho l'età per uscire sola con te

Se tu vorrai
Se tu vorrai
Aspettarmi
Quel giorno avrai
Tutto il mio amore per te

Lascia che io viva
Un amore romantico
Nell' attesa
Che venga quel giorno
Ma ora no

Non ho l'età
Non ho l'età per amarti
Non ho l'età per uscire sola con te

Se tu vorrai
Se tu vorrai
Aspettarmi
Quel giorno avrai
Tutto il mio amore per te




Wie eine Blume am Winterbeginn
Und so wie ein Feuer im eisigen Wind
Wie eine Puppe, die keiner mehr mag
Fühl ich mich an manchem Tag

Dann seh ich die Wolken, die über uns sind
Und höre die Schreie der Vögel im Wind
Ich singe aus Angst vor dem Dunkel mein Lied
Und hoffe, dass nichts geschieht

Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Sonne
Für diese Erde, auf der wir wohnen
Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Freude
Ein bisschen Wärme, das wünsch ich mir

Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Träumen
Und dass die Menschen nicht so oft weinen
Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Liebe
Dass ich die Hoffnung nie mehr verlier

Ich weiß, meine Lieder, die ändern nicht viel
Ich bin nur ein Mädchen, das sagt, was es fühlt
Allein bin ich hilflos, ein Vogel im Wind
Der spürt, dass der Sturm beginnt

Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Sonne
Für diese Erde, auf der wir wohnen
Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Freude
Ein bisschen Wärme, das wünsch ich mir

Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Träumen
Und dass die Menschen nicht so oft weinen
Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Liebe
Dass ich die Hoffnung nie mehr verlier

Sing mit mir ein kleines Lied
dass die Welt im Frieden lebt
Singt mit mir ein kleines Lied
dass die Welt im Frieden lebt
