Swallows in the Heatwave

Blur are an English alternative rock band. Formed in London in 1988 as Seymour, the group consists of singer/keyboardist Damon Albarn, guitarist/singer Graham Coxon, bassist Alex James and drummer Dave Rowntree. Blur's debut album Leisure (1991) incorporated the sounds of Madchester and shoegazing. Following a stylistic change influenced by English guitar pop groups such as The Kinks, The Beatles and XTC, Blur released Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993), Parklife (1994) and The Great Escape (1995). As a result, the band helped to popularise the Britpop genre and achieved mass popularity in the UK, aided by a chart battle with rival band Oasis in 1995 dubbed "The Battle of Britpop". more »

Swallows In The Heatwave
I want to contribute
To natural selection
Buy myself a razor
Watch swallows in the heatwave
Meet the rebel leaders
They're coming cause they need us

Ooo oo oo ooooo
I don't have a history
For religion
Goin' out to get one
Get into the Volvo
Drive into the mountains
Watch swallows in the heatwave
