The Dukes of Stratosphear

The Dukes of Stratosphear was a pseudonym used by the British rock band XTC in the mid-to-late 1980s, concurrently with XTC's continued musical activities. The project was intended as a homage to 1960s pop and psychedelic music by groups such as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Byrds, The Kinks, The Zombies, The Beach Boys, The Small Faces, Jefferson Airplane and The Pretty Things.[citation needed] more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Someone's knocking in the Distance
But I'm deaf and blind
She's not expected home this evening
So I leave the world behind

for the Vanishing Girl
The Vanishing Girl
Yes she'd give you a twirl
But she vanishes from my world

So burn my letters and you'd better leave
Just one pint a day
The whole street's talking about my
White shirts looking so grey

People gossip on the doorstep
Think they know the score
She's giving him the runaround
The man from number four

Has a Vanishing Girl
a Vanishing Girl
Yes she'd give you a twirl
But she vanishes from my world

Yes the paint is peeling and my
Garden is overgrown
I got no enthusiasm to even answer the phone
When she's here it makes up for the time she's

not and it's all forgotten
But when she goes I'm putting on the pose for
the Vanishing Girl
