about

another po-faced meditation on impermanence, and deciding not to pick at someone's (or my own) beliefs and delusions. BTW, all of these tracks recorded in one take at George Welsh's studio under the Cluny in Byker, on his old reel-to-real - with perhaps just a little too much reverb.

lyrics

are you tired of being tired, are you weary of weariness? is a stranger waiting in the wings with the secret of happiness? and will they have the answer that eludes you every night? and this time, will the answer make it right? Are you getting sick of the hangovers that your pocket-money buys, but still looking for validation in another pair of eyes? if a reservoir of lager couldn't fill the hole inside, will one more all-day piss-up turn the tide? I hope all your little wishes come true and set you free, so you've nothing wlse to hope for, no-one else you'd rather be. I hope your prayers are answered by the fickle god you serve, I hope you get what you deserve. Dream on, I won't wake you, dream on.
