Backstroke
Track 2
When writing this song I thought about the place I grew up in It’s a large town on the edge of a city, surrounded by old industry, dirty canals and pubs that too hairy to drink in. It’s a very strange stagnant place that is very stuck in it's ways.
In our old studio 2022
Lyrics
It’s fogging up
Wrong ingredients to the sacred broth
That feeds the hungry house that figured out
It’s mighty lousy
It’s filth it’s trash it’s hungry house well
Pacing through the nice new plastic
Slidey shiny right and rosey
The hungry mouse lives
And burns and toils on
Get rich quick in different keystrokes
The life of boredom the words of warning
The life of boredom the words of warning
The narrow boat called the backstroke
Starts its engines and lets it choke
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
It’s fogging up
Wrong ingredients
To the sacred broth
That feeds the hungry house
It’s figured out it’s mighty lousy
It’s filth it’s trash it’s hungry house well
Pacing through the nicenew plastic
Slidy shiny right and rosey
The hungry mouse lives
And burns and toils on
get right quick in different keystrokes
The life of boredom the words of warning
The life of boredom the words of warning
The narrow boat called the backstroke
Starts its engines and lets it choke
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
The life of boredom the words of warning
The life of boredom the words of warning
The narrow boat called the backstroke
Starts its engines and lets it choke
The life of boredom the words of warning
The life of boredom the words of warning
The narrow boat called the backstroke
Starts its engines and lets it smoke
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
Bring the fifth right from my mind
In equal parts and equal times
