    More Folk Plus! We wanted to make this a "party" song though it's kinda philisophical. You know, the philosophy that comes out of a packet of Marlboro's. Guitar once again in DADGAD - almost a standard tuning these days.
    CD: MERMAIDS

    Story Behind the Song
    "marlboro philosophy" like I said above. Gazing skyward back in Brisbane one evening trying to find the Southern Cross I thought about angels instead.
    When I first tried writing friends would comment how serious my songs were - this was the first attempt at loosening things up a bit.

    Lyrics
    UP ALL NIGHT
    © Stephen Lomas 1999

    Stars are angels, smokin cigarettes
    Thinkin bout things that they just cant forget
    All the tears & troubles the just cant hide
    Gods slackin off hes been lettin things slide.

    (Ch) And theyre up all night
    (theyre up all night)
    Theyre up all night
    (Theyre up all night)
    Theyre up all night
    (Theyre up all night)
    Theyre up all night, & I am too
    Smokin cigarettes just thinkin bout you.

    Moons an old man got a broken heart
    Dull aching pain nearly tears him apart
    Wanders all night there lonely & sad
    Searchin for true love that he never had.

    (Ch) And hes up all night
    (Hes up all night)
    Hes up all night
    (Hes up all night)
    Hes up all night
    (Hes up all night)
    Hes up all night, & I am too
    Im makin plans dont have a clue.

    And all those young men they got the blues
    Carryin a load that they cant use
    Cause all the good girls get to bed by seven
    Then theyre sure to be home by eleven.

    (Ch) And theyre up all night
    (theyre up all night)
    Theyre up all night
    (Theyre up all night)
    Theyre up all night
    (Theyre up all night)
    Theyre up all night, & I am too
    Smokin cigarettes just thinkin bout you.
