Lyrics & Music: Stuart Adamson
   
This was written during the first demos we did at “House In The Woods” when Pat was playing with us, the same demos as “We’re Not In Kansas” and “Ships” I think. This is the version done with Mark drumming at ”Rockfield” for “No Place Like Home”. I think this comes close to being a classic but the verse and lyrics need work. I wrote the song about desperate situations inspiring drastic actions, maybe I should have taken the lyrics advice and tried to do something more with it. — Stuart Adamson, Restless Natives & Rarities liner notes
