AIN’T NOTHING CHANGED, IT ALL GOES ON

AIN’T NOTHING CHANGED, IT ALL GOES ONToday, I am playing the song, This Perfect Day by The Saints, and dancing around the room. Who can resist? It is a record full of mad noise and raw defiance. The Saints, my husband’s favourite band, are the great Aussie champions of insubordination and resistance.
But also, amidst all these glorious chordal abrasions, I want to say to you sweet people – a great and beautiful and heartfelt thank you for coming to The Stuff Page, year after year, and supporting The Vampire’s Wife. I love you all very much, more than you will ever know. Love Susie. x

This Perfect Day


Don't talk to me about what you done

Ain't nothing has changed, it all goes on

And they'll keep laughing till the end

I've seen them drive around in cars

All look the same, get drunk in bars

And don't talk back, we got no social rights

Oh, perfect day

What more to say?

Don't need no one to tell me what I don't already know

We got no high times, always flat

If you go out, you don't come back

It's all so funny I can't laugh

Oh, perfect day

What more to say?

Don't need no one to tell me what I don't already know

Don't talk to me about what's you done

Ain't nothing has changed, it all goes on

And they'll keep laughing till the end

Oh, perfect day

What more to say?

I don't need no one to tell me what I don't already know

Don't need nothin'

Don't need no one
