If your memory serves you well
We were goin' to meet again and wait
So I'm goin' to unpack all my things
And sit before it gets too late
No man alive will come to you
With another tale to tell
But you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well

This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode!

If your memory serves you well
I was goin' to confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
And hide it in your case
If I knew for sure that it was yours
But it was oh so hard to tell
And you knew that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well

This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode!

If your memory serves you well
You'll remember you're the one
That called on me to call on them
To get you your favors done
And after every plan had failed
And there was nothing more to tell
You knew that we would meet again
If your memory served you well

This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode!

Formed in 1976, Siouxsie and the Banshees is one of the main faces of post-punk and new wave music. Their sound is interesting, distinctive, and dynamic. The band’s songs often tell stories, and have deep meanings behind lyrics filled with imagery. From slower songs such as Cascade, to more upbeat tunes such as Peek-A-Boo, and even to covers such as The Last Beat of My Heart and Dear Prudence, the sound that Siouxsie and the Banshees had is timeless.
