Lyrics
Guns and bombs and old fire lighters on channel 4 T.V.
20 years since rocks got chucked at cops in Gay Paree.Chorus:
They'll have a retrospective orgy
Of twisted idiot theory
And they won't get the point
And I'm just getting wearyThings are getting out of hand
Stuff that I don't understand
Somebody caught rabies
I don't recognise this place
No one looks you in the face
I'm scared of the hotel ladiesChorus
Don't blame it on me
Blame it on the Libyans
Don't blame it on me
Blame it on the Libyans
Don't blame it on me
Blame it on the Libyans
Don't blame it on me
Blame it on the Libyans
Found On
The Jazz Butcher’s Brave New Waves session was recorded on June 5th, 1988 in CBC Studio 13 in Montreal. The recording is taken from CBC Archives reels and remastered at Grey Market Mastering in Montreal, by Harris Newman.
Four CD box set gathering A-sides, the would-be hits along with B-sides, tangential 12-inch tracks (the C-sides), and an excellent session for Los Angeles radio station KCRW from 1989.
Includes over a dozen indie chart hits including ‘Southern Mark Smith’, ‘Girl Go’, ‘The Human Jungle’, ‘16 Years’ plus a host of truly eclectic Butcher tunes from his early Glass recordings through his time at Creation.
