There is a second VERSE which uses the same RIFF as the first VERSE

Followed by the second CHORUS, which is exactly the same as the first CHORUS

Then there is a second BRIDGE which is the same but REPEATED 4 TIMES


LYRICS TO SECOND VERSE

You've seen the man, he calls out for a drink, and you're all
You're all tied up in your backstage lines
And you, you just can't move a muscle

Six in the morning and you rise and you fall, you got to
You got to grab what you can
Here comes your man, baby, he's a winner, yeah
He's a gunslinger

	She calls herself an angel, and she comes to town I said L-O-N-D-O-N Just so she can fall This song is pure genius. Album of the year 2004.

No Picture phil Average	#2 by phil gdfgr at Jul 12, 1980 at 7:01 AM EST
	Johnny does say no ones heard her band yet and no one will because again this song is about maired from the queen of noize, i found this out the other day when looking for old footage of razorlight and i found a gig they did at the barfly and instead of 'she calls herself an angel and she comes to town' johnny says 'she calls herself the queen of noize and she comes to town' so im guessing he changed the lyrics around when he finished it with maired

No Picture Perfect Pervers Rhythm Player	#3 by Perfect Perversion™ at May 25, 1986 at 4:21 PM EST
	Johnny once said this song was about "People who push past on the guestlist at gigs". I see how this makes sense, especially the lyric "You're all tied up in your back stage lines, you just can't move a muscle"

No Picture Spymaster Lead Player	#4 by Spymaster - Halo 2 at Apr 3, 1989 at 4:30 PM EST
	Definitly an epic of a song, and a great album. Can't wait to pick up a copy, north american release 0ct 26. Though it interesting how the LPs and singles prior to album release have changes to the songs. This band is actually progressively improving their music with each new release. Actually the LP of this song is extremely different, a different sound with the fundemental lyrics being the same. Its hard to tell which one is better.

	these lyrics are so wrong i don't even want to bother trying to correct it
