Blind Faith to the un-networked
Leaving space
Departure and arrival
Space and time leaves nothing

25th April 2012 | Dirty HD
Grain, pixel and all
Drop-outs and degenerations
on the streets
Never at home
Only on the telephone
dialing his modem
since the cows come home
[chorus]
digital drop-outs
drop-in for tea
advise on the options
Poor HD
A slave to the operating system: he
Dirty HD with his folders and philes
a bit stream of obscenities
when he only wanted... clear
...Crisp
...sharp and cold
..Images..
[echo effect]images imagesimages...
[spoken chant or spliced music change repeat vocal in layers until all the words are heard at once]
Images.. recorded on a disk
on a tape
on a memory stick
the memory that sticks
doesn't decay
doesn't degenerate
doesn't distort
[chorus]
digital drop-outs
drop-in for tea
advise on the options
Poor HD
A slave to the operating system: he
Operating, Generating,Like OGG..
Like a Dog...
Like the God...
With his bone..Dialing modems
Never home
Dirty HDs a Dirtyphile
[chorus]
digital drop-outs
drop-in for tea
advise on the options
Poor HD
A slave to the operating system: he
Files:File under found..
Lost and found
Feet walk above the ground
Destroy, operate and generate
Dee o Gee
Dirty HD
VHS
going back to take a rest
[chorus repeat to fade]
digital drop-outs
drop-in for tea
advise on the options

30th November 2011 | No one followed us down a road
A creaky crackly path
looking for an autograph
No newspaper asked us why
These songs nor what they meant
The supply was high
The demand was low
Only 3 feet away
Our peers our ideas and our
Tape recorders
Each considered track which we lay
We sent nothing out to a talent scout
Nor courted promotors
Labels or stables
We got nothing back but what
We put in
A finished project to play
Some art to take in
A new disc to spin
Derided at times but that quickly
Subsided
Once subdued
They couldnt call us deluded
Now within these 20 odd years no one cares
We could come as we are
As a friend as a trend
Or pay as we go through deserts
And snow
What will come of it all when we go?
Our songs might live on
In their own obscure afterlives
Or just get crushed and forgotten
Glitched out and rotten
Much sooner than later
More mushroom, less baked potato
I was told twice we were on John Peel
There you go
Did I sigh, did I cry when they
Told me
- no
My message to all you people
Who think that it matters
Is that you are a flesh machine
Your life will be tatters
So just let it go and enjoy the ride
A label to be beside means nowt once you've died | Never Signed, Never Sighed | |

21st October 2011 | Dave glaubt nicht am Geister
Wir kommen nicht aus Nigeria
Das Telefon klingelt nicht
Sie fliegt nicht jeden April nach Sofia
Sie hassen fisch nicht
Die Sonne dreht sich nicht um die Erde
Die Banken schießen nicht um 2 Uhr
Sie möchte kein Superstar werden
Jane und Sue unterrichten kein Spanisch

There must be something transmissin
But we don't think its fair
to pay the dollar, or go missin
pay it or parade it
Its up to You
Held to ransom by the motley crew
If you don't want your share
Theres plenty more submissin

29th May 2011 | I could just let go
I could just stop worrying
Completely
I could just appreciate each passing second
(9 seconds' silence)
Each droplet of time falling
(4 seconds silence, then a splash sound)
into the ocean
the ocean of the vast unknown
each second passing past me, a trail of tales of trails and loop-de-loops, cycles, and questions hanging on leaves falling
passing past into the past
an endless film
at, least, for this showing
this reel
this reel of film
at least for this showing
at least for this knowing | Reel | |

29th May 2011 | Eins. Zum Leben gehört Leiden.
Zwei. Lieden entsteht, weil Menchen immer mehr haben wollen.
Drei. Es hört auf, wenn die Menschen ihre Gier überwindet
Vier. Es gibt einen Weg, wie die Menschen ihre sorgen losslassen können.
One. Life belongs to suffering.
Two. Suffering arises because people always want to have more.
Three. Suffering stops when people overcome their greed.
Four. Buddhism gives a way for people to let go of their worries. | The Four Truths of Buddha | |

5th April 2011 | does it have a clack clack clack sound as it turns?
or maybe a oooooooooooooommmmmmmm
sound.. from a rubbing rubber band
like its channeling some deepsource,
of divine information,which it is, of course:
all hail goddess Random,
lady luck, the deity of games,
tricks, Bingo, divination
and special number rackets.
(chorusy thing)
Can we turn,
Can we have a go
Can we have a turn
a revolution of the wheel
(Chant)
Spin the wheel
Spin the wheel
Spin the wheel
Spin the wheel
Spin doctor spin
The wheel of health
Love and money
The wheel of...
Fortunately we can
unfortunately we can't

16th October 2011 | Words Filed, Spoken by a child
THERES A MACHINE IN EVERYONE OF US
Listening learning, reading the ropes
THERES A PHONE IN EVERYONE OF US
In the carpark, in the shops
Plastic consumes us
in the photo, in the field
A coffee propels us
Clothes, cars, sun glasses and a beard
A tee shirt and a crucifix
Sports jacket, hat, a drink in hand
Tags around a neck, a worried look
Images filed, seen by a child
RECORDED IN EVERYONE OF US
Looking, learning, doubts arise
A facebook in everyone of us
In the structures of our city
food arrives, dressed in plastic
Food, fuel, fruit, oil propels us
micro-organisms dead long ago
Our structure is cracking
Faults arise
Waiting to re-new
Be told what to do
Waiting to re-new
Be told what to do
Waiting to re-new
Be told what to do
Waiting to re-new

Waiting to re-new

13th March 2011 | In the tiredness
contentedness
laziness and tide
The fridge is blank
the banks a tank
out of pinger fuel
out of mind
Out of sight
what a delight
to graze on simple soil
News headlines and a revolving circus
of events in constant turmoil
Floating above it all
the superconcious
lives life at life force 10 (x10)
Although this happens when Im sleeping
I cant help but feel the warmth and comfort of it
Dancing above me
in the everyday
stepping 1,2,3
somewhere in my tea
Interplanetary
cosmic energy
it'll all be ok
for the rest of the day
the year
theres nothing left to fear
this life this life this life lived live
this life this life this life lived live
this life this life this life lived live | A Still High | |

5th April 2011 | Crustations on the shore
Amour Plate looks so quaint
but it aint
just there to insure
intrusions to the core
..of soft innards under foot
of five heavy people
of Shoulders sloping and bad backs
talking of, of , of
talking of, of , of
walking off, off , off....
weddings and diabetis
as if relevant to the trainer attack
Crustations on the shore
Hear everything we speak
and our feet break their bones,,
in conversational overtones
(Chorus thing)The tide comes in
the tide goes out
always a drama on the four-shores
(Chant)
everyone wants something
everyone wants something
everyone wants something
even the crabs
even the crabs
even the crabs
even the crabs will willingly eat our eyes...
if we venture into their domain without adequate footwear | Trainer attack | |

29th October 2010 | Pieces of eight
tallow-candle
the cruise of the coracle
Grievous wounds
the mutineer
dies under the doctor's knife
a loud huzza
a cloud of pirates
snatch a cutlass from the pile
(chorus) how different frome life's colour or life's comeliness
dead men dont bite, lying dead in the still green water still seen (x2)
(break, pirate music, sad but rampantly manic)
Beggarman
brisk lads
drying in the sun
mess mates
serviceable servant
a coil of stoutish rope
blaze away!!
RICHOCHET
the last of the cannonade
