about

HEARTS - This is largely clean and wholesome, although it’s basically a critique of popular culture and the trend to plaster your home with trite meaningless messages like ‘home is where the heart is’, ‘life’s a beach’ etc etc. Quite a few words come from ‘Thus Spoke Zarathustra’ which I was reading at the time of recording this album. I have rearranged them and adding my own.

lyrics

HEARTS

Whatever you have is stolen
everything is false
you bite with stolen teeth
lies crawl from your mouth
you steal the treasure of the wise
then vomit it back as culture

many are born and devoured by the coldest brute of all
fishermen row with golden oars at the setting of the sun

Is it mud that sits upon the throne
or the throne that sits on mud
who wants to rule and thus obey
the awful stench of fame
far from the noise of the market
happens all that’s great
those actors that you take for real
buzzing like poisonous snakes

your walls are covered in hearts because
your walls are covered in hearts

many are born and devoured by the coldest brute of all
fishermen row with golden oars at the setting of the sun

Is it mud that sits upon the throne
or the throne that sits on mud
around the truth the world evolves
people revolve around fame
Far from the noise of the market
buzzing like poisonous snakes
Those actors that you voted for
Cover your walls with hearts

They cover your walls with hearts because
you cover your walls with hearts
They cover your walls with hearts because
you cover your walls with hearts

teddy bears and rabbits
love on the mantlepiece
Fairy wings. sugar dreams
fifteen quid from the Disney store
online bingo chardonnay
tweet til the cows come home

your walls are covered in hearts because
your walls are covered in hearts



Some poor bastard in the dark
lying in piss and vomit
ignored by the government
Their walls are covered in shit
Their walls are covered in shit
