British Sea Power

British Sea Power are an indie rock band based in Brighton, England, although three of the band members originally come from Kendal in Cumbria. The wide-ranging nature of their material has led critics to liken their sound to a variety of groups, from The Cure and Joy Division to the Pixies and Arcade Fire. The band are famed for their live performances, the unusual lyrical content of their songs and the adventurous choice of locations for some of their shows. British Sea Power's members are Yan (Scott Wilkinson; vocals, guitar), Noble (Martin Noble; guitar), Hamilton (Neil Hamilton Wilkinson; bass guitar, vocals, guitar), Wood (Matthew Wood; drums), Phil Sumner (cornet, keyboards) and Abi Fry (viola). more »

It's not psychedelic, it's got many merits
It's not psychedelic, nuclear submarine
Darling, I think it's a dream

Your causes, they make me feel so mad
I'm not yellow, oh no, I'm steely black
Oh, I hate peaceniks, I'm ready to attack
Let's take out London, let's take out all of that

'Cause it's not psychedelic, it's got many merits
Nuclear submarine

Thin black sail, oh, thin black sail
Thin black sail, thin black sail
Thin black sail, thin black sail

It's not psychedelic, it's got many merits
So let me make this clear

Nuclear submarine
Darling, I think it's a dream
