The Fall

The Fall are an English post-punk band, formed in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, in 1976. With an ever-changing line up, the group essentially consists of its founder and only constant member, Mark E. Smith, who has said "If it's me and your granny on bongos, then it's [the] Fall". First associated with the late 1970s punk movement, the band's music has evolved through numerous stylistic changes, often concurrently with changes in the group's membership. The Fall's music is characterised by repetition, an abrasive guitar-driven sound, and is always underpinned by Smith's often cryptic lyrics, described by critic Steve Huey as "abstract poetry filled with complicated wordplay, bone-dry wit, cutting social observations, and general misanthropy." more »

Computer doesn't work for me
I had a Sinclair back in 1983
OL2QU, pre-warranty
And don't forget he's still up to it
That Steve Albini
He's in collusion with Virgin trains
Against me

I'm a fifty year old man
I'm a fifty year old man

But it won't get me

Go down Manchester town can't navigate it
The club scene, man
You can't compare with it
One third of securities count
I can't understand that again

You're not real boy
I say you're not real boy
You're a gym (teacher)
You're a Cancer and I expect a little shit

I'm a fifty year old man and I like it

I got a three foot rock hard on
But I'm too busy to use it

I'm a fifty year old man

I'm a fifty year old man
What you gonna do about it?

I go round a hotel
I see "Throw the towel on the floor"
On The Green Man i throw it on the floor and
I piss in it

I'm a fifty year old man and I like it

I'm trying to

And don't forget you try to destroy me
You're in collusion with the trains
Don't try and kid me

I'm a fifty year old man

Go down to the town can't navigate it
The club scene, man you can't get in there

(50 year old man)

I'm a fifty year old man and I like it
I'm a fifty year old man
What're you gonna do about it?

And don't forget, you tried to destroy me
Steve Albini
You're in collusion with the trains
Don't try and kid me

I'm a fifty year old man and I like it
I'm a fifty year old man
What're you gonna do about it?

I've got a three foot rock hard on
But I'm too busy to use it

I'm a fifty year old man and I like it
I'm a fifty year old man
What're you gonna do about it?

Go down Manchester town can't navigate it
The club scene, man
You can't compare with it

I'm a fifty year old man and I like it
I'm a fifty year old man
What're you gonna do about it?

And don't forget he's still up to it

An inferior product mess
An inferior product man
Just over two thirds the price
I'm proud of it i'm proud of it

I'm a type of guy who knows what is on CD
And then they lecture me
On turning rubbish out
While shouting themselves out of existence

If they care so much
Why don't they try eating
Some of those cardboard cut-outs themselves
And they stuff the complimentary
Catering down their neck
Do the fifth re take of
Their attempt to be scruffy on a train
And go back to counselling and communicating

I'm an inferior product man
I'm an inferior product mix
They call me "Bad Head" don't ever forget it
And here is the fade out fade out
Fade out
