10:15 Saturday Night [Chestnut Studio Demo] The Cure

"10:15 Saturday Night" by The Cure, released in 1979, is a #PostPunk track reflecting themes of loneliness and existential angst. The lyrics convey a sense of isolation and yearning during a late-night moment. Its haunting melody and atmospheric sound, characterized by jangly guitars and moody synths, have influenced the goth and alternative music scenes.

[Verse 1]
10:15, Saturday night
And the tap drips under the strip light
And I'm sitting in the kitchen sink
And the tap drips

[Chorus]
Drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Waiting for the telephone to ring
And I'm wondering where she's been
And I'm crying for yesterday
And the tap drips

[Chorus]
Drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip
