Frank Tovey

Francis John Tovey (8 September 1956 – 3 April 2002), known also by his stage name Fad Gadget, was a British avant-garde electronic musician and vocalist. He was a proponent of both new wave and early industrial music, fusing pop-structured songs with mechanised experimentation. As Fad Gadget, his music was characterised by the use of synthesizers in conjunction with sounds of found objects, including drills and electric razors. His bleak, sarcastic and darkly humorous lyrics were filled with biting social commentary toward subjects such as machinery, industrialisation, consumerism, human sexuality, mass media, religion, domestic violence and dehumanization, often sung in a deadpan voice. more »

I felt like dropping down
Sick in the street
I could hardly care about walking
Dragged along with no force in my feet
And all the bones in me knocking
Worn down by caution
Make numb with restrain
In all of my sweetness
I retch and I faint

One man's meat
But I could not taste the poison
I'm so beat
Now my life is not worth living
I'll just walk the street
'Till I feel like dropping down

I could be steeped in the wwashing and weeping
Or burn up in frenzy or fire
A whistful wish for the having and keeping
A desperate leed led by desire
Wrapped in the moment
Weighed by thought
I stretch on the pavement
And feel myself caught

One man's meat
But I could not taste the poison
I'm so beat
Now my life is not worth living
I'll just walk the street
'Till I feel like dropping down

One man's meat
I'm so beat
One man's meat
I'll just walk the street

Wrapped in the moment
Weighed by thought
I stretch on the pavement
And feel myself caught

One man's meat
But I could not taste the poison
I'm so beat
That I feel like dropping down
One man's meat
Now my life is not worth living
I'll just walk the street
'Till I feel like dropping down
