She smiles when she talks
that’s how I know just what she’s thinking
She hovers when she walks
that’s how I know she’s got a plan
She’s got something up her sleeve
that’s clear from her bubbly body language
She smiles when she talks
She hovers when she walks
She’s got a master plan.
I always thought she had a secret service or a covert reason for deceivin’
but I suspect that there is something deeper lions sleeping softly in her lair.
She’s got a sparkle in her eye
that betrays a raging fire
She’s got a most elusive mind
that makes me wonder why I care
She’s a riddle all wrapped up
in a mystery inside an enigma
She smiles when she talks
She hovers when she walks
She’s got a master plan.
I always thought she had a secret service or a covert reason for deceivin’
but I suspect that there is something deeper lions sleeping softly in her lair.
So I searched and I searched for a long time
to find the thread when pulled she’d come undone
But I could find no evidence at all,
not a single trace of anything but fun.
She only wants to have the best time ever
and by fooling me so much the better
And now it’s clear that there’s no inner circle, just a lone gun woman
A conspiracy of just one
She smiles when she talks
She hovers when she walks
She’s got a plan.
XTC had their moment in time...this recording extends it...Full of small, tight , quirky songs it juz rolls along. Recommended but maybe only for XTC fans.. cwhitney
If you're a huge fan of The Nines and have heard most of their other stuff, then this is a great listen. Lots of rarities and unheard material here. Not all of it is memorable, but that's the nature of these kind of albums. Ben Habegger
Parisian indie pop quintet En Attendant Ana bring smart songwriting and considered arrangements to their latest and strongest record. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 12, 2023
Don't believe the name of their latest album; jangle-pop hooks and stacked grunge guitars are two of the Bay Area band's greatest gifts. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2023
