lyrics

Tape loop desires you don’t understand
You’ve been wired backwards by a drunken hand
I was the crook, you were the crime
You’ve been found wanting by a wanted man
You’ve been wired backwards by a drunken hand

Anytime you find you need a conversation – I’m your man
It’s pornographic how you curl your tongue around a sweet turn of phrase
You’ve been caught red handed in a charge of The Light Brigade
You’re a martyr to your cause
And we don't need more now what we need is less
You should have learnt something by now

I drink till I'm drunk
I think till I'm sunk
A backdoor, a battleship, the last bee stung
In a forest of sticks I gather excuses
Burn them like cinders in the morning Sun
Casting a shadow over all we've done

Anytime you find you need a conversation – I’m your man
There's no sin that you could ever dream of that a Saint hasn't done
You’ve been caught red handed - a charge of The Light Brigade
You’re a martyr to your cause
You know that we don't need more now what we need is less
You should have learnt something by now

I’m solar powered and the Sun is high
Breaking in colours from the morning light
I’m solar powered and the sun is high...
