In the Scientists' household, there's a bit of a Christmas atmosphere.
Everyone is kinder, and consequently, the sharp guitars from the first, excellent With love and squalor have been set aside to make room for the one and only eternal sequence of four poor notes that miraculously manages to hold After Hours together for three and a half minutes.
An overly sweetened piece, it's probably thanks to the little bells and background vocal harmonies that the song resembles Snow Patrol a lot and We Are Scientists very little.
So those looking for a new Cash Cow will be disappointed, but I have somewhat lost my heart to that "Say, that you'll stay, say, you'll stay."
Tracklist Lyrics and Videos
01 After Hours ()
This door is always open,
This door is always open,
No one has the guts to shut us out.
But if we have to go now,
I guess there's always hope that,
Some place will be serving after hours.
This night is winding down but
Time means nothing,
As always at this hour
Time means nothing,
One final final round cos
Time means nothing,
Say that you'll stay
Say that you'll stay
We're finally drunk enough that,
We're finally soaking up,
The hours that everyone else throws away.
And if we have to go now,
I guess there's always hope,
Tomorrow night will be more of the same.
This night is winding down but
Time means nothing,
As always at this hour
Time means nothing,
One final final round cos
Time means nothing,
Say that you'll stay
Say that you'll stay
Say that you'll stay.
We're all right where we're supposed to be,
We're all right where we're supposed to be,
We're all right where we're supposed to be,
(Time means nothing)
We're all right where we're supposed to be,
(Time means nothing)
This door is always open,
This door is always open,
No one has the guts to shut us out.
No one has the guts to shut us out.
Time means nothing,
Time means nothing,
One final final round cos
Time means nothing,
Say that you'll stay
Say that you'll stay
Say that you'll stay.
