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 »

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

Go out little tyke
And meet at crossroads
Early morning
The sick hill near Buxton
Stock reload
I gotta do it
Prefixed about it
Goin' to meet Jim
With a roll

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

As a retard i had to do it
I hate the dole
Them keys won't fit
Keys won't fit (the keys won't fit)
The keys won't fit in the socket
Or the controls
Stuck like grids on Pennine mud

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
(walk snake back pass)

Walk snake back
Walk snake back
walk snake pass
walk snake bank

Go out little tyke
Early morning
Sick hills near Buxton
Suffering
I gotta do it

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much

I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
I hate the countryside so much
I hate the contraflow so much
