Driving to the football
Scruffy, sweaty and late
I pause for a Ferrari
That purrs through an electric gate
The driver’s like a page from Vogue
Manicured, designer, tall
She makes me, she makes me feel so, she makes me feel so very small
I don’t like that at all
It’s the playing fields of the public school
Where the weak are bullied by the strong
A place where Britain’s future leaders
Celebrate the bloody Somme
Then assemble in the dark, oak-panelled, solemn,
Portrait-crammed great hall
It makes me, it makes me feel so, it makes me feel so very small
I don’t like that at all
Winding up the coastpath
On the cliffs above the bay
The sea looks like an angry demon
Glowering, imperious and grey
The clouds are dark and thick and full
A heavy rain is going to fall
It makes me, it makes me feel so, it makes me feel so very small
I don’t mind that at all
Another great album - dean wareham, joanna gruesome, lonely tourist, dorotea, the chills, manhattan love suicides & spearmint are all highlights but the whole lot is pretty darn great really martin kiosk

The greatest to ever do it, do it again! Sometimes lush as a warm blanket, sometimes all the angles of a dance party, always suspended in and out of time _hopskipjump
