Blur

Blur are an English alternative rock band. Formed in London in 1988 as Seymour, the group consists of singer/keyboardist Damon Albarn, guitarist/singer Graham Coxon, bassist Alex James and drummer Dave Rowntree. Blur's debut album Leisure (1991) incorporated the sounds of Madchester and shoegazing. Following a stylistic change influenced by English guitar pop groups such as The Kinks, The Beatles and XTC, Blur released Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993), Parklife (1994) and The Great Escape (1995). As a result, the band helped to popularise the Britpop genre and achieved mass popularity in the UK, aided by a chart battle with rival band Oasis in 1995 dubbed "The Battle of Britpop". more »

I am the message center
Local and direct
Room to room, an operator
No calls today, dear, they'll just have to wait, dear
I call and I collect
So just strike him softly away from the body

You're made up too shiny today (in so much trouble)
Thoughts are just pissing away (in so much trouble)
In so much trouble

I am a manager
I am in control
As the local delegator
No calls today, dear, they'll just have to wait, dear
I offer no guarantee at all
So don't take it lightly you'll put yourself under

You're made up too shiny today (in so much trouble)
Thoughts are just pissing away (in so much trouble)
A new typeface, a new day (in so much trouble)
You can't remember ten minutes ago (in so much trouble)
Too much trouble

La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la

You're made up too shiny today (in so much trouble)
Thoughts are just pissing away (in so much trouble)
A new typeface, a new day (in so much trouble)
You can't remember ten minutes ago (in so much trouble)
It's too much trouble (la, la-la-la-la)
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
