Backdrop - Live

Lyrics

The Leicester YOP, TEP, instructor
 Emerged from corridor
 His state-subsidized cannabis haze
 Moved reptilian in its all-levelling routine
 I said to him
 It's about time you started thinking
 About the black dog on your back
 Said it's about time you started thinking
 About the rerun which is your life
 Moveable backdrop
 The backdrop shifted and changed
 The Manchester regiment of the Stuarts
 Would not tread on your patch
 Got nearly down to Derby you know
 Was stopped by stinking Billy
 And rode a racing horse which I had liberated
 From a Tyneside morgue
 I said to the men
 It's about time you started thinking
 About the black dog on your back
 It's about time you started thinking
 About the void in your life
 A military prison or worse
 The backdrop shifted and changed
 The semite man's home is full of sperm
 And pulled down
 His mezuzah was kicked around
 As I did it I said to them
 The backdrop shifted and changed
 So did not even know what song it was
 What it was
 Who put the yellow pills in the Gordon's gin?
 The backdrop shifted and changed
 Until did not even know
 When the lot come up
 Bomb-hole in our schedule
 Who put the yellow pills in the Gordon's gin?
 The backdrop shifted and changed
 Till the reptillian TEP instructor merged
 With stinking Billy's morass of flesh
 And the Yorkies drifted
 1902 Metropole
 The Yorkies (ripley yorks) shifted and drifted
 I said to them
 The backdrop shifted and changed
 And this was The Fall
 Goodnight
