I like to headcanon that the AU-PAIRS just bother Dale for hours that it is Devs birthday and Dale, wanting them to shut up, just put the most popular demand for parties.

This seems familiar.

Au Pairs - Set Up

Playing your game / your mother substitute

She is she / That you never screwed

Playing your game / Her life revolves round and round you

A total investment / Can't afford to love

You're the prize for her sacrifice - A kiss in the morning

A kiss late at night

She's closing her eyes

To those possible lies

Keeping the doubts

Locked tight up inside

Playing your game / She taking care of you

Watching out for your head / When you're sick

She puts you to bed / She props you up

Nurses you through / she's here to look after you

Playing your game / with the rules that you've set

We're on either side / Am I such a threat

Playing your game / Taking care of your needs

She is your security / I may remark on your insensitivity

But you know she wouldn't listen to me

1981

This is from the Au Pairs' first album "Playing With A Different Sex".

I love this band's punk energy, scratchy guitars and sharp lyrics (I could go on...).

The "Stepping Out Of Line - The Anthology" compilation is a nice collection that brings together all the songs from the band's albums and singles. I will be posting more tracks soon!
