about

Hitchhiker Disco is possibly Sir Curse's grooviest tune to date. Like all of the band's tunes it was a true collaborative effort, and they are very proud of the end result. Says trumpeter Joe Martin "The intro actually came from a fairly angry place, with the trumpet and guitar playing the main riff together. I remember Billie came up with the verse almost immediately, and before I knew it Lyndsay was writing about Hitchhikers killing people!"

lyrics

Outback highways
Are great places
To hide things

Like, no one expects
To see me with my
Suitcase

I thumb for a lift
Pistol pre-loaded
I’m quickly picked up
That was their mistake they made

Didn’t even question
If I could be dangerous
Guess they’ll soon find out
I’m their dead end, uh

Hitchhiker Disco
Slow motion
Rodeo
Shovel and rope in tow

Hitchhiker Disco
No one will ever know
Where the body goes

These roads are just a playground
For us to make a game out of
Ba dam ba dam

Or how long we can keep them
Without raising suspicion
We're, ba dam ba dam

To raise the bar
We raise the stakes
Once in the car
We arrange a time and place
To best mutilate (late, late)

I aim my pistol
Secluded area
No one hears the gunshot
It's too late, uh

Hitchhiker Disco
Slow motion
Rodeo
Shovel and rope in tow

Hitchhiker Disco
No one will ever know
Where the body goes

These roads are just a playground
For us to make a game out of
Ba dam ba dam

Hitchhiker Disco
Slow motion
Rodeo
Shovel and rope in tow

Just so you know
I wasn’t always this way
Had a life planned out
Then the menotomy got in the way

Ooo hasn’t anybody here
Wanted to find
Something they make their own
Ooo i went power crazy
But it's not my fault, he made me!
(as in GOD)

Shovel and rope in tow

Hitchhiker Disco
Slow motion
Rodeo
Shovel and rope in tow

Hitchhiker Disco
No one will ever know
Where the body goes

These roads are just a playground
For us to make a game out of
Ba dam ba dam

Of how long we can keep them
Without raising suspicion
We're, ba dam ba dam
Ba dam ba dam
Ba dam ba dam bow
Waaaaaahhh!!

Sir Curse Leeds, UK

Imagine Kate Bush running away to join the circus with System of a Down. Now add some shades of American Horror Story, with an unsettling undercurrent à la The Brothers Grimm. You are now some way towards describing Sir Curse, a 6-piece alternative rock band from Leeds.
The band bring you crazed live shows that combine campfire horror storytelling, freak-show theatricality, and full-throttle music ... more
