lyrics

taken a pounding since my ground ing
self enforced that of course is astounding
had what we all would have been jealous of
gave it up enuffs enough now get a real job
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ee ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ee ooh
play the game get on the tread mill
eat the crust enough canʼt grow up till I STOP ...
all Iʼm trying 2 do is get back 2
I cast assunder my life of wonder
common sense get on the fence or awful blunder
all iʼm tryin to so is get back to 10
I cast assunder my life of wonder
common sense get on the fence or awful blunder
divided fractions pay to the factions
the things we do when we are blue to get reactions
play the game get on the tread mill
eat the crust enough canʼt grow up till
But its a longshot and whatʼs the answer
14 years and many beers from me the chancer
just get my head set on procreation
and hire a bank vault for my frustration
play the game get on the tread mill eat the crust its not enough canʼt grow up till
all Iʼm trying 2 do is get back 2 10

about

The Scratch St Albans, UK

A rock band from St.Albans & Firm believers in DIY ethic they released their 1st single as 7” vinyl only in 2002 & was stocked by Rough Trade in London.

An amalgum of T.Rex, Velvet Undergroud & other good things plus a big dollop of themselves. Eccentric english rock‘n’roll, with weird catchy riffs. Dark & other times funny, they don’t do po-faced indie thank god! [Marco Pirroni, The Wolfmen]
