I invented True Norwegian Black Metal So you'd better not mess with me I've got oxblood in my veins And I will eat your brains, just you wait and see I invented True Church-Burning Black Metal Your songs will live through me Until I get stabbed in the head Then we will be together forever, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead. Norwegian Death Metal Boys, do you weep for mayhem? Norwegian Death Metal Girls, do you laugh at them?

Olive Wallace is light on her feet Olive Wallace swings from a tree She had her revenge at the age of sixteen And everyone says she waltzed like a dream Queen of the dancehall isn't she grand? Isn't she lovely isn't she damned? Olive Wallace just look what you done In the name of the father in the name of the son In the middle of the dancefloor with a warm smoking gun Red red poppies for everyone Queen of the dancehall isn't she grand? Isn't she lovely isn't she damned? Those dastardly bastards will touch her no more She does pirouettes on the sticky red floor Hear the sirens in the distance She offers the officers zero resistance Now who would convict her after all that she's been through? But the judge and the jury, they've got secrets too Olive Wallace is light on her feet And everyone says she waltzed like a dream She had her revenge at the age of sixteen Olive Wallace swings from a tree

Eno 04:59
You know he knows the value of the alphabet You know he knows you don't sign record deals with Baphomet Eno lovely leopard printed space cadet You know Eno he tried to warn us all about warm jets I saw you last night on the BBC from some other planet but a lot like me Twisting voltage filters with your grey silk gloves Is it any wonder that I fell in love? You know he knows Bono and the Coldplay dudes You know Eno he got a Christmas card from Bowie too Eno outside of time outside of points of view You know Discreet Music can destroy black moods In a tiny ship on a milk white sea You made a humming and a thrumming deep inside of me Miles and miles of black tape running through chair legs I'm sorry David I can't bring myself to call you Edge You've got a mind like a synthesizer Sequential Prophet 5 but a little bit wiser Yes yes yes like a VCS3 No no no like Eno you know?

Brian, I'm cryin' like Bill Wyman when he got the news And I wonder who held you under? Who was laughing as you sank from view? I point a finger at Mick Jagger with a dagger and revolver in the ballroom Or was it the boardroom, where the briefcase of money was exchanged and the contract signed? There's a bloated blonde boy at the bottom of the pool They found pills, they found booze, but they never found the man who killed you He'll be standing at the gates of hell, with Allen Klein There's a bloated blonde boy at the bottom of the pool Put a man on the face of the moon But the moon-faced man lies in state "Death by Misadventure" we're assured There is no need to investigate Brian, I'm cryin' like Bill Wyman when he got the news

The smell of rotten juniper Her folks christened her Jennifer She changed her name to Candi A couple of months before Mustachioed white predator A dozen girls ahead of her But warnings cannot pay the bills And rent is nearly due Mother I will carry them all towards the light, dark eyed angels of the deep black night... Creep antennae tingling Coins in pockets jingling Roll the window down and smile but don't look them in the eyes Lurking by the river's edge Darker thoughts come through his head Red Xs on the Green Trails map Get in the truck and drive Mother I will carry them all towards the light, dark eyed angels of the deep black night...

Nil-Nil 04:30
Life is like a game (nil-nil) Sometimes a game is just like life (nil-nil) There are no winners there are no losers (nil-nil) Just a bunch of people running around So hold your teammates close and let them know just how you feel Let them know what they mean to you Did you play the best game you could? Be proud of that. Because you might not get to say goodbye. The referee looks at his watch and blows his whistle Game over

Pulling influences from 80's New Wave,
