At the age of 33 and a third, the time that Christ spent on earth
I decided to cut all ties with showbiz
As the awards piled up in the bath, well I started to laugh
At all those who died in the name of light entertainment
Camp Christ, Kitsch Christ, some escapologist Christ fella
There's an unfunny Christ comedian tied up in my cellar
Fly tipping Christ in a lay-by, All try to catch my attention
At the age of 33 and a third, the time that Christ spent on earth
I decided to establish a manifesto
Until we destroy we'll only have ruins
No more masterpieces. No more pseudonyms
Speak in tongues change my identity
Become invisible
I deal in absolutes, no second chances
I'm the Holy Grail of poisoned stanzas
Do I have to end it all like Billy Mackenzie
To get out of the contractà
Arse-licking Christ, false Christ, little self-hatred Christ
Sex Christ, Death, dumb and blind Christ, Hanging in a garden shed Christ
Anorexic Christ, Idiot Christ, All try to catch my attention
At the age of 33 and a third, the time that Christ spent on earth
I decided to cut all ties with showbiz
Luke Haines (nato il 7 ottobre 1967) è un musicista, cantautore e scrittore inglese noto per la sua versatilità artistica e l'approccio indipendente alla musica. Iniziò la sua carriera negli anni '80 con The Auteurs, band indie rock di grande successo in Gran Bretagna. Haines si distinse per testi ironici e intelligenti, influenzati da autori come Philip Larkin e John Betjeman. Dopo lo scioglimento dei The Auteurs, Haines ha continuato a registrare musica sotto il suo nome e con progetti come Black Box Recorder, esplorando generi come la pop sperimentale e l'elettronica. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi figurano "Teenage Rock Star", "Never Been in Love" e "The Auteurs Song". Haines è anche un autore di successo, con romanzi e saggi pubblicati. La sua carriera musicale è caratterizzata da una costante ricerca artistica e un'indipendenza creativa che lo hanno reso un artista apprezzato da critica e pubblico.
