In the Cauldron of Love

The Icicle Works (also known as Icicle Works in the United States) are an English alternative rock band and were named after the 1960 short story "The Day the Icicle Works Closed" by science fiction author Frederik Pohl. They had a top 20 UK hit with "Love Is a Wonderful Colour" (1983). In the US and Canada, they had one top 40 hit, the 1984 single "Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream)". Led by singer-songwriter Ian McNabb, the band released five albums from 1984 to 1990 before breaking up in 1991. McNabb later convened a revised line-up of the band in 2006 to play live shows; this revised Icicle Works line-up still plays sporadic live dates. more »

Daddy, daddy,
I have found the girl that I want to live with,
Her eyes are as dark as November
When it falls on our village,

If I stand on a chair
I can see here house from my bedroom window,
She smokes cigarettes,
She says its much too late for her to stop now, 

Listen do you think that she's right for me,
No, stop laughing, c'mon now honestly
Her father regards me with caution
As I wait in his library,

The scent of tobacco
And the silence of the room are inside me, 
Ask but what's to gain,
And what am I to say,

I never knew the feeling when it came my way,
I'm about as happy as I could be,
I really think the Spring will bring
A change in me, 

There's something growing out of season
