about

The second single from The DVM Band, musically its heart is forever lost somewhere in 70’s British blues pop; lyrically its head is locked in battle with modern-day nightclub culture and the hollow promise of love and beauty.

lyrics

you can build your empires high
catch the laughter in the sky
better get it all while you can

with your dizzy party eyes
kiss the boys and make them fight
breaking hearts while they still will show

ooooh, jackie let go
i know what you know
ooooh jackie let go
winning is all that you know

back to bed when you’re inside
pull the wool over his eyes
is he dreaming a dream of you?

then a call comes from the club
make a young man feel so tough
but it’s never much more and you know

ooooh, jackie let go
i know what you know
ooooh jackie let go
winning is all that you know

and as you steal a kiss by the cigarette machine
your night has been ruined by a pack of 16
and you find out there’s no change
and all you have are moments of economy drinks
it’s only when you’re older that you'll stop and think
of the good times you never had

ooooh, jackie let go
i know what you know
ooooh jackie let go
winning is all that you know

it’s over I think that you know
