The Stranglers - 3.02 - Nice and Sleazy


This is the second track of the album "Black and white", which was released in 1978. The Stranglers seem to be projecting an image of themselves as dirty old men.



Nice and Sleazy

We came across the west sea,
We didn't have much idea
Of the kind of climate waiting.
We used our hands for guidance
Like the children of a preacher,
Like a dry tree seeking water,
Or a daughter,
Nice 'n' sleazy,
Nice 'n' sleazy does it.

Nice 'n' sleazy, nice 'n' sleazy
Does it, does it, does it every time.
Nice 'n' sleazy, nice 'n' sleazy
Does it, does it, does it every time.
Nice 'n' sleazy does it.

Nice 'n' sleazy, nice 'n' sleazy
Does it, does it, does it every time.
Nice 'n' sleazy, nice 'n' sleazy
Does it, does it, does it every time.
Nice 'n' sleazy does it.

An angel came from outside,
Had no halo, had no father,
With a coat of many colours.
He spoke of brothers many,
Wine and women, song a plenty,
He began to write a chapter
In history,
Nice 'n' sleazy,
Nice 'n' sleazy does it,
Nice 'n' sleazy does it,
Nice 'n' sleazy does it,
Does it every time.
