about

There are lots of songs out there about Angelina. Maybe because it ryhmes with ballerina. Dylan has written some. The Rolling Stones wrote one. We thought it was time to revisit Angie and check on how things are going. And from all reports nothing much has changed. She is still one fine little heartbreaker.

lyrics

She was a shooting star form across the ditch
She was a five star freewheeling bitch
Angie I don’t mean to be mean
But there’s no penance in our type of dreams

Nowadays metrosexuals fall down at her feet
But there’s no time to consider the inevitable defeat
‘Angie where is your lover now?’ a bold one asks
She throws a shoe and they all duck for cover

Angie, oh Angelina
I just can’t get over this fever
Angie, oh Angelina
I remember you were quite a dreamer

She begins an animal cruelty rant
‘Farewell Angelina,’ the crowds start to chant
She pulls out a white rabbit and then does a bow
I felt empty but I don’t feel so empty now

Angie, oh Angelina
Who told you to set foot in this arena?
Angie, oh Angelina
I see you’re quite a dreamer

The sun rises and the sun sets
Some people forgive but time never forgets
It has been a while since she has been down this way
But the hills still echo her name at sunset everyday

Angie, oh Angelina
I just can’t get over this fever
Angie, oh Angelina
Just another like-minded dreamer
