About the song

Warning: This song is very Tarantino! So be warned! The song is all about a husband arriving home unexpectedly early and discovering a row of evidence suggesting an affair his wife has with the neighboring farmer, who left hay practically everywhere, even on the driveway! In fact all suspicions are confirmed when entering the master bedroom. The desperate solution is found in from of the red harpoon the husband has brought home as souvenir from his latest fishing vacation. All that follows is, as we said, very Tarantino, and leaving much of the events to the phantasy of the listener.

Über das Lied

Achtung: Dieser Song ist thematisch sehr “Tarantino”. Seid gewarnt! Das Lied dreht sich um einen Ehemann, der an einem Nachmittag, unerwartet, etwas verfrüht nach Hause kommt und schon im Eingang Beweise vorfindet, die nahelegen, dass seine Ehefrau eine Affäre mit dem nachbarlichen Bauer hat. Der Ehemann findet Heu an allen erdenklichen Orten, sogar in der Einfahrt des Hauses. Alle Verdachtsmomente werden bestätigt, als er das Schlafzimmer betritt. Die geeignete Lösung für die Situation scheint er in der aus den letzten Fischer-Ferien heimgebrachten roten Harpune gefunden zu haben. Alles was folgt ist, wie zum Anfang erwähnt sehr „Tarantino” und überlässt vieles der Phantasie des Zuhörers.

Lyrics

Opening the door early afternoon
Strange signs of love on the floor
My Hi-Fi weeping’ our favorite tune
Her cloths all scattered on the floor

Hay on my driveway
On my driveway
Hay on my driveway
On my driveway

Opening the door to our master bedroom
Two naked bodies on the floor
From the wall I grab my old red harpoon
Aim — trigger —- and boom!!!!

Hay on my driveway
On my driveway
There was
Hay on my driveway
On my driveway

Later on, down at “Joanne’s Saloon”
I had a beer and met that dude
Still had hay clinging to his boots
Paid him a drink —- then two

Hay on my driveway
On my driveway
Hay on my driveway
On my driveway
