about

Lila (pronounced Lee-la) works at the wonderful Coventry Music Museum in Ball Hill, Coventry which is run by our front-cover photographer Pete Chambers. She asked if I could write her a song like I had for various people including her friend and co-worker Ruth Cattell ('Little Ruth) on the previous album ('Hoi Pollo').
Sadly my song emphasises the 'i' sound of her first syllable rather than the 'e' so I'm not sure that I have achieved her request though Lila certainly inspired a song ! Sorry Lila x

PS The 'Lila' in this song is an entirely made up person and story by the way (once you've figured out who Lila is in the song) !

lyrics

Don't lie, lie, lie, lie to Lila,
Don't lie
