LYRICS
Things are Getting Tighter

Hey, girl. I can be happy
When youre around
Things are getting tighter, yeah

Hey, girl. I can be happy
When youre around, but
Things are getting tighter, yeah

Busy streets, workin hard
No parking, no job
Iron cars, busy cues
Some sexy voice,
Reads the news
Beware of the spider
City web, is getting tighter

Ah, things are getting tighter
Things are getting hard
Ah, things are getting tighter
and...

Hey, girl. I can be happy
When youre around
Things are getting tighter, yeah

Hey, girl. I can be happy
When youre around, but
Things are getting tighter, yeah

Ugly kids, soda pop
Little men, at the top
Billboards, latest hair-do
Oh Im fine
How do you do?

Beware of the spider
City web, is getting tighter
Ah, things are getting tighter

Things are getting tighter, yeah
People looking frightened
I got youre love
But, Im suspicious of strangers
Growing impatient
And so suspicious of strangers
Im suspicious of strangers

Hey, girl. I can be happy
When youre around
Things are getting tighter, yeah

Hey, girl. I can be happy
When youre around, but
Things are getting tighter, yeah
Things are getting tighter

And, hey girl, hey girl
Hey girl
I can be happy

  • Sweet Poison - one of the best live bands I ever saw (and I've seen hundreds) - I was only talking about Howard Jackson's guitar playing with a friend a few weeks ago. I have never seen or heard anybody play a guitar like him before or since. Sweet Poison had a sound and a style of their own

  • My friend and I used to always watch them play when they came to Hobart as we thought they were really good - I've probably got some old photos of them too
