SPY V SPY ONE OF A KIND

Look
Look around,
See what you've found
Dead of night
A bad surprise
Men in black
Are coming by tonight
One of the other
One of a kind
Some other place
Some other time
Aim at that sound
And watch what's going down
Dead white skin
Red eyes stare bold
Rain and overcoats
And do, so cold
One of the other
One of a kind
Some other place
Some other time
Look
Won't you look around
And see what you've found
Windows locked and
Bolted doors
Running scared down corridor
One of the other
One of a kind
Some other place
Some other time
Aim at that sound
Watch whatever hits the ground
Curling smoke and twisted smiles
Empty streets for miles and miles
One of the other
One of a kind
Some other place
Some other time

First single I ever bought back when I was 12, the day after I heard them play this on Countdown. I remember being really proud of the fact that the store had to order it in for me!

booo!!

Love it! Thank you to my uncle for getting me into these guys after I said how much I liked Midnight Oil. "Injustice" is the first song I was introduced too, love it. Good old Mount Wellington!

Love the spies, this will always be a favourite. Interesting this recording is sped up raising the pitch a few notes... but pushes it along a bit, as the original has really a quite slow tempo.

@jamesa70 Thanks for your invaluable commentary James. You might think the Oils are retarded but who is now a Federal Minister in power? - a not very retarded Garrett. This isn't commo lyrics but more likely drug fucked, paranoia lyrics against the cold war conservative government influences. Just because you refer to communist doesn't mean you are one. Any way if you stop trying to lick your dick, you will get fewer pubes in your teeth mate.

Man, does this bring back memories! First saw the Spy's in '86 at the Old Greek Theater in Melbourne & countless times at the Central Club in Richmond. (Ah, those were the days - band venues aplenty in the '80's. Pokies have a lot to answer for!) ...OOAK was available on the Spy's first fully released EP for WEA - 'Meet Us Inside'. 'Four Fresh Lemons' was prior to MUI, released on the 'Green' Independent label. I miss these guys incredibly. OZ music never the same since Blox hung up the bass...

@fromtheYANG  That's absolutely right!
