“From the gutter to the stars, you look up into the pale light of an underground train...”

Custard Speedtalk is here; Spring has arrived.

lyrics

Custard Speedtalk

From the gutter to the STARS
You look up into the pale light of an underground train
Vibrant Red
Perfection

Underneath the skin
We will never meet again
I don’t know what it is about me

“I can’t be soft at work
I’d be eaten alive
If they worked me out
I don’t know how to undo that”

You’re really good
At making people feel good
Not because the way you dress
I think it’s in your jeans
I know I wish I was!

You don’t know what’s going on!
But you’re not stupid
You refuse to change!
But I’m much more well rounded

The one you’re with now
Is spiteful
The one you’re with now
Is mean and selfish
You don’t realise what a mess you’re in!
Listen to yourself…

Three
by The Necks

THREE is fantastic! ‘Bloom’ is pure, unpredictable, relentless sonic nectar. The Necks are an animal machine, painters of landscapes that make my head feel good. - (Karl Hyde - Underworld) Underworld
