Albert Hammond Jr’s fourth solo album Francis Trouble explores a deeply personal topic – the stillborn death of his twin brother, Francis, and the lingering effects that event has had in his life and music.
In November of 1979, Hammond Jr’s mother, Claudia, miscarried. Although they rushed to the hospital, Claudia and Albert Hammond Sr. were told that the baby was far too premature to live. Albert continued to grow inside of his mother undetected until she was nearly six months pregnant.

Lyrics:
So you're freaking me out
You hide your looks in your skull
I'm catching muted beatings in my lungs
You act like you're in my head
You sit me up in the back
I wanna know your lips upon my tongue
Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I'm Charlemagne

Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can't breathe under your skirt
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette

Do-do-do-do
I don't care

Words come out of your mouth
They hit me hard like a brick
I know I know I know I know
I know you like me possessed
But lately I've been a mess
You got me thinking 
Are we closer than before
Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I'm Charlemagne

Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can't breathe under your skirt
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette

Do-do-do-do
I don't care
You're a cult in this place
I don't care
Watch my skull give and take
I don't care where will we go
I don't care where will we go
I don't care
