The lack of power in the voice dosn't help. Maybe if they dropped it a lot in the mix, double tracked the guitars a bit more.. like it's doing now.. Also would have hidden the lyrics.

I wish we'd done Schoolboys in Disgrace.

The guitar's not high enough in the mix.

Actually, this isn't the proper track three.

This is another one with a familiar tune.

It's a bonus track interpolated into some spurious UK release.

My version of this on iTunes is quite different regarding track listing.
Still, this track is typical of Ray Davies.
Hinting at something good, but ultimately just wallowing in musical mediocrity and banal lyricism concept-wise.
