There’s a quiet little man
and he sits at his window
Doesn’t make a sound
but he watches where the wind blows
Wants to go outside
fears wouldn’t let him
[Force] a little smile
and the fears come rolling
la la bum bum dum dum dum dum
You can go outside where the sun & the people blind you
You can go outside where the love of the people finds you - it will find you
When he walks through the maze
in the circles of his back place
[White? One?] shoe on his roof
is still tied at the shoelace
He will [never curse] again
all the days on his home spent
Nailing all the doors
& jumping through the window

I Beta Band sono un gruppo musicale scozzese formatosi a Glasgow nel 1996. Composti da Steve Mason (voce, chitarra), John Maclean (chitarra, tastiere), Robin Jones (basso) e Douglas McNicol (batteria), hanno raggiunto rapidamente una fama internazionale grazie al loro sound unico, definito "folktronica". Questo genere originale fonde elementi di folk tradizionale scozzese con elettronica, rock, trip hop e sperimentazioni sonore. Il loro album di debutto, *The Beta Band*, pubblicato nel 1998, ha ricevuto un'accoglienza critica entusiasta, consolidando la loro posizione come una delle band più innovative del panorama musicale britannico. Il loro secondo album, *Hot Shots* (2001), ha ulteriormente ampliato il loro successo, con singoli come "Dry the Rain" e "The State of Things". I Beta Band si sono sciolti nel 2004 dopo un tour mondiale. Steve Mason ha continuato la sua carriera musicale come solista, mentre gli altri membri hanno intrapreso progetti musicali diversi.
