a friend of mine thinks this is the BEST song ever!!!
it's great, I think it has many feelings in the lyrics
anger, desperation, fear... I like it too.

| Eek, it's definitely not my favorite. Though it is quite good, I prefer Travis songs of the happier variety. It always reminds me of either Bright Eyes or Desaparecidos... |

| It is amazing! Especially live. Been to 3 Travis gigs and they've done it at 2 of them. For me, the set list would be missing something without it, like Sing. I hope for more like it in the future. Hope the band take this new found (or rediscovered) rocky side of Travis further with album 7. Let's have a couple of quick rockers of albums. :) Phwoar! |

I don`t like at all Blue Flashing Light, but Andy`s guitar is rocker!
Very Easy to play...
Em
Saturday evening at quarter to five
Am
I would see him arrive at the door
D
Pushed you aside as he stagered inside
Em
spilling alcohol over the floor
Em
A storm is a brew it is sure to fall soon
Am
as I look at you from ashore
G
So you'd better hold on
'cos it's saturday night
Em
and your friends are all out
and you feel like shit
G
'cos they never called you
no they never called you
Em
no they never called, never called
Never bloody ever
Em
Call me a name and i'll hit you again
Am
you're a slut, you're a bitch, you're a hore
D
talk to your dad in that tone of voice
Em
there's a belt hanging over the door
Em
so you run to your room, and you hide in your room
Am
thinking how you could settle the score
chorus * 1
Em
The blue flashing light last saturday night
Am
brought the neighbours all out on the street
D
they watched as the fireman carried you out
Em
and they stared at each others feet
Em
everyone sees yet nobody says
Am
are you all just afraid of the heat
G
but it's saturday night
and i'm lying alone
Em
and the bed that i made
disconnected the phone
G
still they never call you
no they never call you
Em
no they never call, never call
Never bloody ever call
