lyrics

Down at the gene pool
Nice day for a swim
A tasteless soup
For me to drown in

What do I like?
Who am I?
A child is laughing
At my bullshit life

Investigate
Why we investigate
Rhyme and reason
Always running late

Is there a meaning?
And if so, why?
A child is laughing
At my bullshit life

Damnatio Memoriae
Value is contained in the half-closed eye
Or is it half-open?
Is it watching me?
And do I give a shit?

Cos we’re nowt to write home for
Just everyday ghosts
An epistle in the wind
That got lost in the post
We’re not four year olds
We’re not folk heroes
Just an in between thing
Not worth recording

The wind’s not rough
The wind’s not cold
The wind just makes your mind grow old

The wind’s not bought
The wind’s not sold
Just a weather system designed to erode

And the wind gives way to an estuary
Like the Thames, which everyone pisses in
