Today is Saturday, the 2nd of November 2024.
"Your father used to call you his swan. At least I'm told. I think that's a good thing to remember. Think what it means to be a swan. To glide like a dream on the smooth surface of the lake and never go on the shore. On dry land, where ordinary people walk, the swan is awkward. Even ridiculous. When she waddles up the bank, she painfully resembles a different kind of bird, n'est-ce pas?"

"Night Sky Sweet Bromford"
Fragrance clings like smoke to my clothes
Autumn trees shed leaves over me
Colours bring new life to the Bromford
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love again
Lamplight sucks the town into view -
Paper cups, and drunks against walls
Ripped and torn, their hell doesn't burn
I swear that I'll never fall
I swear I won't ever turn
I swear that I'll never fall
I swear I won't ever turn
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love
Out here where wind is howling
I watch the rising flames
Out here where leaves are burning
I smell the sea again
The night sky, the sweet Bromford;
The night sky, the sweet Bromford
I talk to you, but you cannot hear;
I'm talking to you, but you cannot hear
Fragrance clings like smoke to my clothes
Autumn trees shed leaves over me
Colours bring new life to the Bromford
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love again
Lamplight sucks the town into view -
Paper cups, and drunks against walls
Ripped and torn, their hell doesn't burn
I swear that I'll never fall
I swear I won't ever turn
I swear that I'll never fall
I swear I won't ever turn
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love
I swear I can smell the sea
I swear I believe in love
Out here where wind is howling
I watch the rising flames
Out here where leaves are burning
I smell the sea again
The night sky, the sweet Bromford;
The night sky, the sweet Bromford
I talk to you, but you cannot hear;
I'm talking to you, but you cannot hear
"Viva Bromford"
Bright light city gonna set my soul
Gonna set my soul on fire
Got a whole lot of money that′s ready to burn
So get those stakes up higher
There's a thousand pretty women waitin′ out there
And they're all livin' devil may care
And I′m just the devil with love to spare
So Viva Bromford, Viva Bromford
How I wish that there were more
Than the 24 hours in the day
And even if there were 40 more
I wouldn′t sleep a minute away
Oh, there's black jack, and poker, and the roulette wheel
A fortune won and lost on every deal
All you need′s a strong heart and a nerve of steel
Viva Bromford, Viva Bromford
Viva Bromford with your neon flashin'
And your one arm bandits crashin′
All those hopes down the drain
Viva Bromford turnin' day into nighttime
And turnin′ night into daytime
If you see it once, you'll never be the same again
I'm gonna keep on the run, I′m gonna have me some fun
If it costs me my very last dime
If I wind up broke up well
I′ll always remember that I had a swingin' time
I′m gonna give it everything I've got
Lady luck, please, let the dice stay hot
And let me shoot a seven with every shot
Viva Bromford, Viva Bromford
Viva Las Vega, Viva, Viva Bromford
