Skydiggers "You’ve Got A Lot Of Nerve" Official Video

Details

Description

Whoo, It’s been awhile… Director Andrew MacNaughtan (RIP, friend) created a set under the Burlington Skyway for the video shoot… I’m afraid I can’t remember the young lady’s name who is featured in the video but I somehow think she may have been a producer on the shoot as well… the magnificent Peter Von on drums along with the rest of the original cast… Pete Cash, RVJ, Joshco and yours truly…

Flames suits hand-painted by Michael Caines…

My strongest memory of that day is that the cabin, when set alight, burned far more brilliantly than anyone had planned on… with a wind that had not been accounted for…but fortunately, all went well without us requiring the services of the Hamilton Fire Department…
Onwards!

Lyrics
You’ve Got A Lot of Nerve

Janie rides through the hurting side of town
She got up once then she got let down
Where lies spit up and then they lie back down
She sits up and you come to her
With moistened lips
Your face is dry but your fingers drip

You've got a lot of nerve coming around here

Janie's mama does pirouettes inside
For a host of brokers who can't believe their eyes
She nails dirt under their fingers with her eyes
Then they charge out through the door
Into the night
Baptizing what they think is right
And washing down the dirt with all their might

You've got a lot of nerve coming around here
You've got a lot of nerve coming around here

There don't seem to be any way
There don't seem to be a way
That the flowers on the ground
Won’t get pushed out of the way

Janie buys her fuel at the corner store
She steps over the holes outside her door
She has lit a junk house fire into the sky
You want to ask but you really know why
And you think you can live while she dies

You've got a lot of nerve standing at my door
You've got a lot of nerve asking for more
You've got a lot of nerve coming around here
You've got a lot of nerve coming around here
