Lucifer over Lancashire

The Fall are an English post-punk band, formed in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, in 1976. With an ever-changing line up, the group essentially consists of its founder and only constant member, Mark E. Smith, who has said "If it's me and your granny on bongos, then it's [the] Fall". First associated with the late 1970s punk movement, the band's music has evolved through numerous stylistic changes, often concurrently with changes in the group's membership. The Fall's music is characterised by repetition, an abrasive guitar-driven sound, and is always underpinned by Smith's often cryptic lyrics, described by critic Steve Huey as "abstract poetry filled with complicated wordplay, bone-dry wit, cutting social observations, and general misanthropy." more »

Saw six men
Under a tall tower
Break it to him
Like I'm breakin it to you, gently
The nice people
Will remind you, oh yeah
Kicking, white, cheerleader
When the tired cheerleader
Lucifer over Lancashire
The black girls
Shake the hedges
On this the hottest day for ages
Was that monsoon
Doctor had the needle
Can't obey his [...]
No longer
Lucifer over Lancashire
I tell you no lies
Completely blind
Are the sentinel's eyes
At the back of his mind
Those people screamed
The people screamed
He took over everywhere
And this place
Now over here
And it's time he move on
His cock-eyed moon
And useless prayers
Now I'm just flyin
I'm flyin
I'm typin
I'm shinin
I'm winnin
I got this on
I'm a runnin shark
I'm winnin
I'm shinin...
