Lay of the land


Lay
Lay
Lay
Armageddon
This beautiful tree
Boo hoo
Give up living
Ample
Eye
They give in

On the buses, up the stair
By the television
Pretend to learn

Wheres the lay of the land
My son

Wheres the lay of the land
My son
Whats the lie of the land
My son

The last briton on the street
Hes in a radio fuzz
Hes dead and beat
No longer reflects our daft fate
Well leave this city
Hit a quick coach, take the town in surrey
Theres no-one here but crooks and death
Kerb-crawlers,of the worst order

Wheres the lay of the land
My son
Whats the lie of the land
My son

Eldritch house
With green moss
Sound of ordinary on the waves
Tiles drip from its roof
Home secretary has a weird look

Wheres the lay of the land
My son
Whats the lie of the land
My son

The good book of john
Surrounds the son
Sound of ordinary on the waves
Italic scribble on horizon
When the height of culture is a bad stew
Space bores, government disorder
Indian clerk, low-calorie drink
Wheres the lay of the land
Where children circle in cycles
Giving jokes ad lib
By bearded writers
Who defected to
Higher realms
Advertising realms

Wheres the lay of the land
My son
Whats the lie of the land
My son

(people laughing..people fighting..people watching)

Between the ticker and the mind lies an air-block of wind

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Fall sono stati un gruppo post-punk inglese formatosi a Prestwich nel 1976. L'unico componente stabile della band è stato il frontman Mark E. Smith, noto per la sua personalità provocatoria e il suo stile vocale unico. La formazione ha subito innumerevoli cambiamenti nel corso degli anni, con Paul Hanley (batteria) e Steve Hanley (basso) tra i membri più longevi. Il sound di The Fall è caratterizzato da riff chitarristici taglienti, ritmi marcati e testi spesso oscuri e surreali, influenzati dalla musica industriale e dal krautrock. Tra gli album più importanti: *Hex Enduction Hour* (1982), *This Nation's Saving Grace* (1985) e *The Infotainment Scan* (1990). Brani rappresentativi includono *Totally Wired*, *Hip Priest* e *Kicker Conspiracy*.
