We Don't Hear A Hit
02:36
|
|||
We don’t hear a single
We don’t hear a hit
Have you any new tunes
These old ones are all shit
If you brought that part forward
And played around a bit
It might play well with punters
We might have a hit
That’s not what we’re here for
That’s not what you hear for
This isn't why you're here
This isn't why you're here
We don’t hear a single
We don’t hear a hit
You know where this is going
But bear with us for a bit
We want to hear some new stuff
That makes you want to spit
It’s also just like your first hit
Then you might have a hit
That’s not what we’re here for
That’s not what you hear for
That's not what we're here for
That's not what we're here for

All Ears No Speak
02:16
|
|||
Not going to speak till I heard
what you have to say
Too many times I’ve flown off the handle
when things haven’t gone my way
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’ll give you time
and enough rope
To hang yourself
if there’s anything left to hope
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
Maybe you’ll dig yourself
out of that hole
By keeping on digging
like you’re drilling for oil
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I’m all I’m all I’m all ears
I still remain to be convinced

Calculating R
03:24
|
|||
H is the mass of my heart
Crushed by a random factor
Was it you or was it chance
Or maybe just a crisis actor
take into account all variables
When calculating R
Dependent and independent
When calculating R
Did you take my feelings
Into account when rounding up
Or like usual ignore them
When it came to mopping up
take into account all variables
When calculating R
Dependent and independent
When calculating R
An error of a decimal place
is all I am to you
I never took self pity into account
When you ran me through
take into account all variables
When calculating R
Dependent and independent
When calculating R
I guess that’s your final answer
And we called it quits
And you squared off the fractions
You broke into bits
take into account all variables
When calculating R
Dependent and independent
When calculating R
words: R. Spence

Try Kate
02:26
|
|||
The coolest girl that you ever knew
never ever gave her heart to you
take your time you know you have to wait
looking like at ten but more like an eight
that's kate
try kate
there's no hate
try or die now kate
This is many years ago
Things have incredibly changed y'know?
Trampling over personal borders
Would only get you a restraining orders
that's kate
try kate
there's no hate
try or die now kate
It’s late
Touch of fate
Never so great
Never say Kate
that's kate
try kate
there's no hate
try or die now kate
If you ask me Hollywood has a lot to answer for!
words: A Goz & R. Spence

Melchizedek
03:24
|
|||
When I saw the original title
For this song
I was a little concerned
Something felt wrong
I had to ask
were we summoning something unknown
Like in the Necronomicon
Or something equally overblown
It seemed so stupid
When said out loud
I felt embarrassed
And far from proud
But after recording
With the original words
I felt uneasy
I felt cursed
I felt an unholy presence
Following me
That we brought into being
That we set free
I had to save
Myself from this world
So we broke the spell
So we changed the words
words: R. Spence
music: A. Goz

Up In The Attic
02:57
|
|||
this is the place I know so well
up in the attic
trapped by a containment spell
up in the attic
been alone for many years
stuck alone with all my fears
no more time and no more tears
up in the attic
maybe you can't understand
up in the attic
spiders the size of my hand
up in the attic
we have come together to agree
I don't hurt them and they don't hurt me
and i just bring them what they eat
up in the attic
words: R. Spence

Kate Tries & Fails
02:20
|
|||
Kate tries and fails
And fails again
And tries once more
Despite the pain
Once more she tries
And tries and tries
And tries again
Through cloudy skies
come try with Kate
It won’t hurt if you fail
It’s like it isn’t you
It’s like it isn’t real
come try with Kate
It won’t hurt if you fail
It’s like it isn’t you
It’s like it isn’t real
Kate tries and fails
And fails again
And tries once more
Despite the pain
Once more she tries
And tries and tries
And tries again
Through cloudy eyes
come try with Kate
It won’t hurt if you fail
It’s like it isn’t you
It’s like it isn’t real
come try with Kate
It won’t hurt if you fail
It’s like it isn’t you
It’s like it isn’t real
words: R. Spence

This Is A Bradford Sound
03:37
|
|||
The trains don’t come
around here any more
You wander the streets and wonder
What’s it all for
Everything’s grinding
into the ground
And all that’s left
is a certain sound
This has a Bradford sound
Like an old mill burning down
This has a Bradford sound
With wasted potential all around
You can’t put your
finger on it
But it’s the only way
everything fits
It’s distinctive
in its own way
And it doesn’t matter
what you say
This has a Bradford sound
Like an old mill burning down
This has a Bradford sound
With wasted potential all around
This has a Bradford sound
Like an old mill burning down
This has a Bradford sound
With wasted potential all around
All around
words: R. Spence
