    Lyrics:
    It's too late now
    It's twenty past two
    I spent the night just watchin' you
    I watched you dance
    I watched you move
    Can't breath and still i watched you move away
    Now i think quite a lot as i stare at my shoes
    About all these things that i put myself through
    Now there's nothing to say
    And there's nothing to do
    You're just too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    The Radcliffs wouldn't come after you
    I glance but you just stared me through
    Felt such a fool i felt you knew
    But you might tell me to go away
    Now i think quite a lot of my own point of view
    Is that all i have that's in common with you
    EMOTIONS SO GUARDED
    My heart is retarded
    You're too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    This evening hasn't gone like i planned
    Should i take the situation in hand
    Can't go on but i can't seem to dance
    You chain my feet
    I stamp and stamp and stamp
    Because nothing i do ever seems to be right
    The same dance of mine
    Every saturday night
    Out the window
    You might say I'm out of of my mind
    But you're too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    Too nice!

    The greatest Ska band of all time and one of the greatest bands to come out of England and definitely out of Birmingham!!

    The US Festivals had a veritable glut of extraordinary music. At the time, we all wondered what technology could possibly have to do with it all.
