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 »

Tied up to posts 
Blindfold so can't feel maintenance
Kickback art thou that thick?
Death of the dimwits 

Businessman hits train
Businessman hits train
His veiled sex seeps through his management sloth
The journey takes one hour 

And its a hexen hour
Hexen school
Hexen cursed
Hexen bowl boils
Hexen rule
Explain the mood harm 

The DDR scene
Alpine pullovers
Alpine give over 
You can clutch at my toes
You will drive me insane 
You know nothing about it
It's not your domain
Don't confuse yourself with someone who has something to say
Cause its a hexen rain
Hexen fodder 
Hexen cursed
Hexen bowl boils
Hexen rule explain the mood harm 

While greenpeace looked like saffron on the realm
Brown, shrivelled
A Kellog's peace
The opposition was down
Red church on a hill
Red church on a hill 
Styrofoam insides
Aluminium tiers
Louis Armstrong tapes waft down the aisles
And its a hexen hour 
Hexen file
Hexen rule
Hexen bowl boils
Hexen rule in the hour of the fall 

It takes grace to play the second fiddle well
His cap emblazoned a crusty knife
[Live only one,] was these you ate
Goes with you down, and pats your head

That's strife knot
Strife ker-not
Strife is life and don't forget it
Strife is life, you don't want to hear it
Could be thirteen or thirty one of this mob
Could be thirteen or thirty one of this mob
Strife knot
Strife ker-not 

Life is strife but you don't want to hear it
Strife is life and that's it
And that's it, and that's it
And that's it
