Mignight Strangler
It seems appropriate to start with this song, which is one of the firsts I wrote with lyrics. In fact, it is the second with lyrics after dozens of instrumental tracks that I did until I started the singing. It dates from July 1993, which makes me feel pretty weird because I’m still a child.
Years later we recorded it as a demo, with Nacho and Alfonso on their respective instruments, drums and bass. To do this we used an old (and it was already 2nd hand then) 8-track multitrack recorder that recorded on cassette tape!. Either the CD era is more recent than it appears or will it be I am no longer a child. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.
Midnight Strangler
Went to a dark cavern down town
Was looking for relax, just a bit
And what I found there was good
It was a good f**king place
Few little light and a big bar
Music was good and I stayed
Took out a bottle I founded
So my troubles where behind
And then I found that cute woman
At least I thought that from far
Then she got closer, I saw that
Wasn’t enough to say fat
So then I told her my story
Thanks to the whiskey I drunk
God damn the whiskey and its parents
Oh, well, I shouldn’t say that, but then
Nobody knows my story but you
At least nobody’s here to tell it
Nobody knows my story but you
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows my story but you
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows my story but you
And then she said she understood
That it was getting too late
And then she tried to escape
I couldn’t let her away, because
Nobody knows my story but you
She said she couldn’t stay more
She begged me pardon and prayed
But then she already knew my life
So then she couldn’t stay… alive!
Nobody knows my story but you
At least nobody’s here to tell it
Nobody knows my story but you
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows my story but you
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows my story but you
Sometimes they say I’m crazy
Sometimes the call me mad
I am The Midnight Strangler
I guess they may be all right
Nobody knows my story but you
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows my story but you
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody knows my story but you
