Lyrics below:
The case was pulled from under the bed
She made a call to a sympathetic friend and made arrangements
The door was closed, there was a note
I couldn't be bothered, maybe I'll choke, no more engagements
With where-have-you-beens and far away frowns
Trying to be good by not being 'round
And here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
That stupid old bug that kills only love
I want to be good, is that not enough
So play me the song that makes it so tough
Another nail for my heart
Then play me the song that makes it so tough
Another nail for my heart
I had excuses, those little boy lies
That she computed by watching my eyes and told me firmly
She couldn't stand it, I'm bad on her heart
She dropped her make-up and I found the bar, now it concerns me
I've had a bad time, now love is resigned
I've been such a fool, I've loved and goodbyed
So here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar, the piano man's found
Another nail for my heart

Again, as I said earlier, Gilson Lavis is a killer drummer. I've been a drummer for 26 years, and I've always regarded Mr. Lavis as a very underrated drummer. More so, Squeeze were and still are a underrated band. But his overall approach to drumming is great. Awesome pocket. Brilliant fills. Always tasteful. All extremely vital and complimentary to the songs. Also, in general, its fun to watch him play. So much energy. Yes sir. There's a reason why he played with Jerry Lee Lewis, Dolly Parton & Chuck Berry. Incredible man. Sorry to get all fan boy. But the man deserves more cred. No one can argue that. Cheers.

There’s so much going on in this song, but the thing that always floors me is how unusual it is to have a guitar break after just the first verse and chorus. And yet, for all that’s unusual about it, it makes sense here. It’s almost like it gives the listener time to breathe, to reflect, like they just had a shot of whiskey and now they’re contemplating life. Unexpected and totally perfect.

I ended up buying their Greatest Hits album many years later and discovered several I knew but didn't know it was them including "Another Nail in my Heart", "Pulling Mussels" and of course "Tempted" where Glenn gets screwed only singing 3 lines of the already shortened 2nd verse. But it amazes me how anyone could only know 1 measley Squeeze song.

Best guitar solo in the history of power pop! Who else but Glenn Tillbrook could have composed it? He makes it looks so easy. A very very under-rated guitarist.
@funkster007 Жыл бұрын
So many brilliant tunes (and bands) came out of the post punk and new wave scene. But this song scratches that nostalgic itch like no other. Tilbrook's voice, the swirling guitar and bass lines, and that perfect driving beat. Oh...but then lets top it off with a masterclass guitar solo. What the hell was that!!??

To all you kids today, you really did miss a great time in the 80s. Trust me when I say that there will never be another time like that. All the great bands, the great songs, all the feeling and everything that comes with it.

Richard betser That's what a lot old people say unfortunately. And will continue to do so when both you and I are long dead. Yes, this a great, timeless song by squeeze but don't try and spoil it with the grandpa stuck in the past crap. It's as boring as it is overdone.

I hung out with these cats at a hotel bar in Burlington Vermont in the 90's right after their concert at U.V.M! I saw Squeeze, in NYC, in the early 80's as well! I must say probably one of the best live rock experiences of my life! Great folks to drink with as well! I always admired their style, sound and songwriting but their onstage antics, with Jules as MC, was a show in itself. I remember one of the guys doing several somersaults guitar in hand and never missing a beat. They were all very young then and so was I. In the words of Bob Hope "Thanks for the memories"! You guys were and still are an inspiration to me and many many others!

Extraordinary to think that this barely scraped into the Top 20 while the equally brilliant follow-up, Pulling Mussels From A Shell, didn't even make the Top 40! Argybargy, the album which both tracks came from, was a gem which literally screams "1980!" at me whenever I play it.
