Pete Atkin - Sheer Quivering Genius текст песни

Atkin-James

My sweet little sister has come up with another LP
People might think she's more sensitive even than me
I suppose I'm gonna have to start workin' against the clock
Produce another heap of identity crisis rock

ID with the emphasis on the I
ID-entity crisis rock

I need six more songs about starin' out into space
With those alien stars burnin' holes on my sensitive face
Then another six cuts about starin' down into my soul
And the critics'll call it the future of rock 'n' roll

ID with the emphasis on the I
E and that means the spotlight falls on me
ID-entity crisis rock

A discreet little concert to push the album into the stores
I'll be so damned humble I can only just bear the applause
If it all pans out I'll hardly even have to sing
Just stand looking delicate ten feet in front of Carole King

ID with the emphasis on the I
E and that means the spotlight falls on me
ID-entity crisis rock, I'm just so fragile
ID-entity crisis rock, please call me Ishmael
ID-entity crisis rock

(Spoken aside) Oh no - not the stigmata again!
