Speaking about the single, the band explains, "It's a song about a guy who is supposed to be spending a nice day with his girlfriend onher birthday, which happens to fall on a bank holiday. Itstarts badly when he tries tomake her breakfast in bed but he burns the toast and it goes downhill from there.Hastily assembled plans to redeem himself with a posh night out are laid to waste bythe local cash machine having run out of money and they areleft to wander the streetswith the bank holiday booze wobblers."
