She said I like your shirt, I said yeah I like it too.
It was examined in it's assembly by S-22.
It's got all its buttons and the right amount of sleeves,
If you want you can try it on any time you please.
Glad you noticed, found the time, took the trouble,
To say what's on your mind, what's on your mind.

Mona Lisa looked from the frame
popped out her head and went back again.
She said I'm fed-up with being up here.
It's always the same thing year after year.
and I don't want.
To be a beauty stuck on a wall...

You need space as a child or as a Marxist like yourself.
Between the tissue and the wrapping paper,
child sews a football , weaves a carpet now.
I knew where the birds nests were,
i knew where the blackberries were,
I would run for miles as a child.
Stay right there I'll catch you George and Ray,
a shaft of sunlight pierce the day.
The Felix brothers they're on the run,
I'll catch 'em later, shoot 'em with my gun.

Too temporary

when I met you from the train, you said your heel had broke again,
and held onto me as we went to see the someone to fix it.
He said he'd do the best that he could,
wouldn't guarantee it ,well who would.
Isn't that a little like you and me, we tend to be too temporary.
I missed you more, no you haven't got fat.
I shaved my hair off so I'm wearing a hat.
It's been hell like love without sex.
I don't want to be your ex no more.

In my pocket

In my jacket if you care to know it, there's a relic of you and me.
In my pocket there's the handkerchief,
you used to wipe a tear from my cheek.
I my wallet if you care to know it, there's a photo of you and me.
In my pocket there's the ticket too
the day we went to stay down by the sea.
You walked slowly round the room
and I said it's too soon to be talking that way
thinking today's forever.

Tax you more for your 4x4, congestion charge you can't ignore.
The bigger picture, your house built on sand,council tax is way out hand.
All the gangs got their knives and guns.
Too many mothers losing too many sons in this Furniture.

Carnival day

I prayed as played with a blade that was made to be used in her sword swallowing act.
Don't be concerned, she said you know that I learnt
from the best when I tip my head back.
For one more time I will be fine.
Into that space between the lips where I'd taste
The kisses she'd meet with mine.
Down goes a sword right up to the hilt.
She promises time after time, I will be fine.

Cleopatras land

We drove to the waterfall and crossed the stepping-stones with care.
Didn't buy a honey ball from an old man who was sitting there.
Washed our feet, went to eat just off the motorway.
Girls fell asleep in the back of a jeep.
We had some fun that day.
Run for the shadow, hop-scotch on the sand.
The searing heat fries your feet,
In Cleopatra's land.
Got dressed for the monastery, told off by a monk,
for wearing my bandanna and Oakley s
too near the holy junk.
The monk all in a funk said, It's all about respect you see.
I said don't you worry brother,
You got my sympathy.
Run for the shadows...

The Polar bear, he's getting thin, he wants to eat some more
he'll eat anything.
Put some jam on your shoes, invite your trousers down for tea.
Your walking 10 to 2, your like penguin, maybe.

From a window where I work, I can see where I grew up.
There's the field on which I played to win the F.A. cup.
I could show you where I rode my bike,take you where I'd dream at night.
If I took you where I danced around, brave at the grave of sacred ground.
You would know me better, you would see i'm really not so bad.
Just like a night in stormy weather, thunder crack, rain comes down,
Soon it all has passed..

Eddies brother London, UK
Constantly weaving between the beautiful and the uncomfortable, the crystalline, the brash and melodic. With his impossible to pigeonhole lyrics, the only definitive thing to be said about Eddies brother, is that it's anything but mainstream.
