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 »

The flat is evil
Welcome, living leg-end

I was walking down the street
I saw the poster at the top

I was all on one leg
The streets were flagged

And the poster at the top of street said
"Do you work hard?"

I was only on one leg
The road hadn't been fixed
I had to be in for half six

I was only on one leg
My blue eyelids were not active
There was a curfew at half nine
For my kids

There was a poster at the top of the street
Encapsulated in plastic
It had a blind man

So I said "blind man, have mercy on me"
I said "blind man, have mercy on me"

The flat is evil and full of cavalry and Calvary
And Calvary and cavalry

"Do you work hard?"
It said, "I am from Hebden Bridge
Somebody said to me "I can't understand a word you said"

Said: "99% of non-smokers die"
Do you work hard?
Do you work hard?

I was walking down the street
And saw a picture of a blind man

The flat is evil
Of core, cavalry and Calvary

Of core
Blind man, have mercy on me
Said, blind man, have mercy on me

I am looking at my feet
My blues eyes get ID'd
My curfew was due half eight
Now it's half past six

My curfew is at nine-thirty
I said "do you?"
Blind man, have mercy on me!
Blind man, have mercy on me!
Blind man, have mercy on me!

I’m on one leg
My eyes can’t get fixed
And my kids
Can’t blue eyes get fixed?

Blind man, have mercy on me!
Blind man, have mercy on me!
