D′you think I can't see
I can even smell him on your clothes
I don′t know how you got be so lazy
You're almost newer her, this is your home
Well, ain't that peculiat
Becoming very clear there′s something else
That means to ya
Frankie is his name
He′s go to be the one who's
Gonna take the blame
Cos if isn′t him then
Frankly I don't know
Who′s gonna take the rap
Cos Sally didn't show
And she′s not coming back
Frankie is his name
He's got to be the one who, s
Gonna take the blame
And if isn't him then
S′ who′s it gonna be
When that fella Frankie's gone
I′m hopn' that′s me
Ans Sally's comin′ home...
When I find ol' Frank, that' II be the end
O′ this situation
There′ II be tears to cry, cos I intend
To give him an education
I'll look him in the eye and give him back the
Pain
That he gave me
And I′ll say goodbye to him and to my
Sally-Ann
No one to save me
The lyrics to Club des Belugas feat. Iain MacKenzie's song "Frankie" tell the story of a man who knows that his partner has been unfaithful. He can see it in her behavior, smell it on her clothes, but yet she denies it. The lyrics describe how the man has come to realize that his partner's lover's name is Frankie and he is the one who will take the blame for their affair. It's interesting how the lyrics suggest that the woman in question is almost more at home with Frankie than she is with her own partner. This infidelity has obviously caused a lot of pain and resentment for the man, who wants to confront Frankie and give him a lesson in pain about what he has done.
The lyrics to "Frankie" present a scenario that is all too common in romantic relationships. Infidelity is a complex and fraught issue, and the song vividly displays the emotions and fears that can arise when trust is breached. The lyrics also capture the frustration and agony of someone who suspects their partner is cheating, but cannot definitively prove it. The song's lyrics tell a powerful story that many people can relate to, making it all the more compelling.

Guest17171717 Iain Mackenzie is great. I listen to him and Club des Belugas and created a huge playlist of all their music on Spotify. They are on the Chin Chin label and feature a lot of excellent artists. They call the genre "Nujazz".
