03. Kinder Of Spine (Smith/Presley) 2:26  Lyrics

Spider
Why have I got spiders?
Dear spider
Hello spider
Help me spider
Happy glued to this one
Glows all red
One time I hurt my paw
In a warren
Under the duvet
It was grave
And I need it
One time I hurt my paw
In a warren
Under the duvet
I thought I might need it
Spider, spider help me
Help me, help me, help me
Red
Oh captain, captain
Oh judge, judge
Of the
"Persecute Me" talent show
Spider
Spider
Day or night
How could I feel
With no day or night
How could I feel
And it cannot be real
So there
Happy, glued to some plant red
Help me
Green of the green of the bed of the breadcrumb
Oh captain, captain
Of the
Judge, judge
Help me
Spiders
Why have I got them?

04. Noise (Smith/Spurr/Greenway) 2:28  Lyrics

The first one you can hear
Peter

Kiddies, as we get older
We have to try and understand
People who are different from us
Peter is one of these people

In his hands is a guitar
Why don't you try some of it yourself?

At least, unlike Peter
You wont twitching all over the F fret
That's what they're called on the guitar

Behind nasty noise Peter, here he is now

David, warrior
Warrior of the dark forest

And the reason:
It is not just that they
Live in the dark
Or their emperor
Cunliffe has made them play

Only then can they
Be free from the dark wood

Trapped on the altar of Konk

05. Hittite Man (Smith/Greenway) 5:46  Lyrics

Hittite Man emerges from the ground
White robes, he says

You don't hear me

Hittite Man, Hittite Man emerges
White robes to the ground, into sand
Says, debt does not exist

And you can't hear me
You don't hear me

Goodbye Stacey and Julie, goodbye...
Pilgrim out of mind, out of depths
Death does not exist
Hittie Man emeres from sand

He says
You can't hear me
You can't hear me

(you don't hear me)

What about Stacey, Julie and Dave?
What about Stacey, Julie and David?

Pilgrim out of mind
Hittite Man emeres from sand

Pilgrim out of mind
Out of death and debt
You do not exist

He says
You don't hear me
You don't hear me

Hittite Man, white robe right down to the ground
Disappearing into the sand

You have no idea about the gibbous morons
You have unloaded on this earth
He says, he says, goodbye Stacey
He says goodbye Stacy and Judy
Goodbye Stacy

Debt does not exist, you don't hear
He says
You don't hear me
Scalded crucifix
Pilgrim out of mind

Hittite Man

06. Pre-MDMA Years (Smith) 1:08  Lyrics

The pre-non-MDM and Jet years
The post...
The post net also DMA years
...net also DMA years
The MDMN years
The pre-black eye and the tears of today years
The post net also DMA years
Me years
The MDMN years
The pre-black eye and the tears of today years
Thanks E. Stacy the present child of yours you prove for own child years

The bone seraton unconnected composite years
The main years
Cheerio
Like the orc marrow gone down green jelly mama
Your kid brother than your years
Thanks E. C. Stacy the present child of yours you prove for own child years

The honey is stuck on back years
The bone serration unconnected composite years
And child years
In time

07. No Respects Rev. (Smith/Presley/Poulou) 4:57  Lyrics

The Lords of the Senses
Were coming up
Typical side road
It was fast and cold
It was fast and cold
On a day of old
Giorgio soul
Coming down
Had to move
Had to move
No respects for Judy
No respects
For the lonesome cove
No respects
Laughing you go
Fast and cold
You go on your roads
Censoring yourself
Embracing your curtailment
Giorgio soul, god
We appreciate him
In twelve years of repast
For twelve years in fast
For twelve years in fast
For twelve years in fast
For twelve years in fast
Respects
Going around
Reverberating
In eldritch and neon
In Giorgio soul's realm
The god and the dashed
Damned
In the words of...aaa...
In twelve years
Do you think
And set up some cove
Location in Whitby
Engländer Schweinhund
Why are you here?
Why are you here?
Why are you here?

08. Victrola Time (Smith/Melling/Poulou) 3:54  Lyrics

Science hasn't recorded it yet...
And I don't wanna buy any johnnies

I said MDMA years!
You can't feel, you can't feel Victrola
Victrola teller, Victrola teller
From '28 from '16
Victrola
DMA years
Stop!
J-j-just stop
J-just can't
Just can't
Post meth and DMA years
The pre non-MDM and net years
The post meth MDMA years
The pre- non- MDM and meth years
The post meth and also DMA years
The MDMA years
The pre- black eyes and tears of today years
The post-meth MDMA years
MDMA years...
Can't feel I could cry
Joy
The pre- black eyes and tears of today years

09. Irish (Smith/Spurr/Melling) 3:42  Lyrics

The bath clique
Out of reach
The bath clique
Thank God
Out of reach
The women have skins of peach
Old
They're making my bad dreams over
The bath clique is out of reach
Making my bad dreams over
Stretches outside
Stretches outside
Extension magnifique
On a beach
On a beach
And a street
James Murphy is their chief
They show their bollocks when they eat
Commercial rate awaits
For those who join clique
And make their pledge
And put their material
In the ...
Awaits for you, awaits for all
Join clique
Make the pledge
Within reach
Within reach
Within reach
Bath clique in our reach
Stretching outside
Bath clique out of reach
Stretches outside
On a beach
In a street
J. Murphy is their chief
A founder awaits
For me, for all
Who make a pledge
To join
Who join clique
Bath clique awaits
And make their pledge
And make their pledge
Bath clique
And make their pledge
Bath clique

10. Jetplane (Smith/Spurr/Melling) 3:12  Lyrics

Diane Worstock and Dr. Jeffery Henning
first came up with their innovative new idea
whilst standing in an airline queue, of all places
(On the Milan to London flight on a cold Italian...
their London flight had been delayed by two hours)
Standing in the queue, who would've thought that
this innovative new idea would've occured to them
ticket number was obliterated

It occured to them, standing in an airline queue
for the Milan to London flight on a cold Italian Saturday afternoon
the Italians certainly like their Sundays

[Eleni interspersed]
the world's small now
but a longer schlep
new vistas at night
followed him...

And to make matters worse
some sort of Rock group was holding up things also
they were bringing elbows and euros into Heathrow
( When you hear planes whoooosh..)
This was when the great idea was beginning to dawn on them
to the Italian extreme cold or heat
Anyway, Diane with the cooperation of Dr. Dave opened a bureau
which not only tattoed your return number to Heathrow on your arm
but also squeaks if you are carrying more euros into Heathrow
(Suddenly, certainly, sullenly...)
And people who had cash, bringing it back
would be persecuted to the fullest extent

11. Jam Song (Smith/Spurr/Melling/Poulou) 5:00  Lyrics

[Could do with a fucking chorus, that's the main fucking thing, innit?...]

It dim-a-nim sim choo-boy

[Eleni: Those mou kati / those mou ena komati]

It started one afternoon
When the LP came on
It erased the brain of the man we held dear
Now we have to make sure
The estate and sound
And we have to make sure
The estate and sound

It started
It started one afternoon
It started too soon
It erased the brain of the man we all held dear
Now we have to make sure
It is safe and sound today

And the dormant channel of review
Would be a corpse again
We have to ensure
The dormant channel of review

A permanent irritant
Permanent gasp for breath in town
Change from way to chest to...
...gasp for breath in with a tenth
Of whatever
ha ha Wray composite
I make truck with porcelain
I make truck with porcelain

That done timmy song

12. Loadstones (Smith/Greenway/Poulou) 2:56  Lyrics

Local lodestones
Local lodetones

And after dark sunset
My brother and I
We walked the path
Far from the tower
A light sea breeze
Ruffles blood
Skin is bleeding

Shoes for the dead
Shoes for lodestones

Local lodestones
Local lodestones

Pink dots off the Island of Wight
Sails off the Island of Bergen

Sataffopsagaffop
Sataffsagopfa

Pinch!

Shoes for the lame
Shoes for the lodestones
Shoes...
Shoes for the dead

Local lodestones
Local lodestones

Lights out at eleven
On the lodestones and the, the parish
Revisited island

Bergen

And running my hand
Across your little stone

The pill police seen in your
In their stupid barges

Waiting
In text
In flesh
Shoes for the dead
Shoes for lodestones
