The Fall

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 »

Ah-well I'm walking down the street,
It's always students that I meet,
Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.
Write your letters to the Evening News
I clench my fist and sing this tune:
I said Hey student, hey student, hey student,
You're gonna get it through the head,
I said Hey student, hey student, hey student,
You're gonna get it through the head, I said
Well, walking to work,
It's always students that I meet
Henna in your hair, 
As you
I clench my hand before I flip my lid.

[Chorus]
I'm walking down the street,
It's always students that I meet,
Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.
As you listen to Pear Jam in your room.
I'm thinking like that when I sing this song:

I said I walk some more, walk some more,
Walk some more, wah wah wah x2
I'm walking down the street,
It's always students that I meet,
Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.
As you stare in your room at Shaun Ryder's face
Down long long long long days

[Chorus]

I said I walk some more, walk some more, walk some more, wah wah
wah 
I said I walk some more, walk some more, walk some more, wah wah
wah 
The dead brains of class A-B

Twin swastikas
I'm thinking like this when I sing this tune:

[Chorus]

I said I walk some more, walk some more,
Walk some more, wah wah wah 

I said I walk some more, walk some more,
Walk some more, wah wah wah
