about

IN HER SMILE is Ridiculous's lovely, jingly-jangly new single that'll make you feel all jingly-jangly inside.

It was written by Basti Wocker after a particularly gruelling day in London when he was 25 and had fallen deeply in love with a rather gorgeous Spanish girl in Sitges near Barcelona. "I was riding my bike through London traffic and thinking 'I can't wait to get out of here and be with 'Juanita' again (not her real name)' then, when I got home, out popped this song.'

Referred to simply as 'SMILE' by the band when they play it live, In Her Smile is Ridiculous's second release after Everybody Loves That Girl.

lyrics

In Her Smile

I've had enough of people screaming in my ear
I do not wish to participate in their fear
The cars they drive, the smoke, it really gets me down
I cannot wait to get myself out of this town.

She'll be there beside me,
It's all here in my mind's eye
I can see it in her smile
And it makes my life worthwhile
I can see it in her smile.

I've had another day in hell but that's okay,
There's lots of foolish people getting in my way
The way they push, they shove, it really gets me down
I cannot wait to get my arse out of this town.

She'll be there beside me,
It's all here in my mind's eye
I can see it in her smile
And it makes my life worthwhile
I can see it in her smile.
