lyrics

Don't Point That Quill At Me

The only thing I ever really wanted to own was the stage.
Id happily swap the home of the rich for the home of the brave

Pre-chorus

But age has worn me thin
I caught myself like a king surveying gardens of mine with a grin

Verse

A bard on horse back road into town
Like a big headed bird
Jumped over my fence with an axe
Bashed his brains into curd

Pre-chorus

Its never too late to change
Nothing cant be rearranged
Never to early to fall
Nothings undestroyable

Chorus

Dont point that quill at me
Dont point that quill at me
Dont you point that quill in my direction
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Verse

When i was a nipper gods in the music paper seemed to welcome
Me into brand new worlds
With the ragged promise of debasement

Pre chorus

But as i look at the television screen
My trousers grow with the thought of my bank balance, look at tye television screen
Trying to think but its too obscene

Chorus

Dont point that quill at me
Dont point that quill at me
Dont you point that quill in my direction
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Verse

Territory gaining, map is changing, old ideas are erroding, memory is fading, im becoming a giant, cant see my feet, when your trying to sit down, im removing your seat.

Pre-chorus

But age has worn me thin
I caught myself like a king surveying gardens of mine with a grin

Verse

A bard on horse back road into town
Like a big headed bird
Jumped over my fence with an ace
Bashed his brains into curd

Pre chorus

Its never too late to change
Nothing cant be rearranged
Never to early to fall
Nothings undestroyable

Chorus

Dont point that quill at me
Dont point that quill at me
Dont you point that quill in my direction
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

about

Executive Toys London, UK

Tick, tock, tick, squawk..
From the scum of the great water, after the dredge, shiny happy little toys did remain.
Many years passed. ..
Disguised as just another plaything, the toys arrived, sweet little glittery pills, sparkling, addictive.. A chorus from a Boston séance, a boxcar shampoo hook, cold Wire synth washes, sprinkles, jabs and prefab lilts sprouting. Decidedly New Wave.
