about

Mark E Smith.

lyrics

Take these so called indie bands, barely even up for a pint
I got mates who are builders, take the bar and drink it dry
I have to hear about their sell-outs, don’t you worry there’s a good chap
Everyone’s got to earn a crust, you got signed, now you’re trapped

CHORUS

Go on prove me wrong
My record is proof
My record is long
The proof’s in the songs

You know I’m never wrong for long
When I keep losing arguments
I’ll be writing songs as long
As I keep losing arguments

I have to put up with musicians, get in tune and on the beat
They miss the point, get all worked up, like they’re in it for the wrong reasons
I can hear what they can’t hear - listen hard, the moment’s gone
I don’t care how they find their way, they are servants to my song

CHORUS

Find a pub for an interview, but I’m banned form the lot
When I fired my whole group, I got charged with assault
You think I’m a drunken tramp, just a tramp sprouting nonsense
Get the drift, never deny, that is all I ever was
