about

Psychedelic pop song featuring multiple guitar tracks and mellifluous four part vocal harmonies. Our tribute to our friend Paquita, who was taken away so cruelly.

lyrics

PAQUITA

VERSE 1

North Fitzroy puts me in a cold sweat makes me think about you

Dark days everything was lost we are without you

I last saw you in Johnson street in a halterneck top

You paid for my dinner you said I should eat more food


VERSE 2

They say don’t walk alone don’t go home

It’s the ones we love that hurt the most

The spark in your black eyes lives within my heart

We are tiny little fish we are made of stars



CHORUS

I’d give the whole world to hear you, to mend your broken parts

We both know the spotlight doesn’t shine on the likes of us

You were in love with a man that turned so savagely

And for what? Oh, for what?



VERSE 3

You made everyone feel like they mattered

You would give a beggar the shirt from your back

I ache for your ghost I scream at the moon

Paquita bright star we are bereft


CHORUS

I’d give the whole world to hear you, to mend your broken parts

We both know the spotlight doesn’t shine on the likes of us

You were in love with a man that turned so savagely

And for what? Oh, for what?
