Lyrics: Bernard Fanning

 Band Quotes:

Its supposed to be about being in a rock band, and thinking its really bad being away from home, and feeling all sorry for yourself. That's what the verses are saying, that sort of thing.

And then the chorus is just saying, oh you absolute wanker. (Laughs) Na na na, its just bla bla bla. You know.. who cares what the rock singer thinks? Its not a very hard life.

-Bernard Fanning

(Hindley Street) is a street in Adelaide, and we were staying on Hindley St when I started writing the song. Its like the dirty strip of Adelaide.

-Bernard Fanning

Fan Theories: (none)

Lyrics:

a gentle winter haze creeps in at three forty-four
the Hindley st parade shuffles to my door
the hotel decor shades are always poorly sewn
twenty-five in thirty days makes this room feel like home

na na na
na na na na
na na na
na na na na

the western ocean breeze kick starts another day
and under brewed bag tea no matter where you get it always seems to leave that taste
the Todd St mall café is here to save the day
why should I complain everybody else is overworked and underpaid

na na na
na na na na
na na na
na na na na

days keep rolling over
escape to the undercover
soon it will all be over
and we can start again
