The Fall - Printhead lyrics
[The Fall - Printhead lyrics]
Hey you horror-face!
I'm a printhead i go to pieces
I'm a printhead i go to pieces, yeah
End of catch-line end of hook-line
We had a two page it's what we needed
I'm an ill head my face increases
How my head increases real problems, biz
So how is it, yeah that I've reached here
I thought this game would do me good
How could printed vinyl bring
You out to here?
We laughed with them
When it was take-the-piss time
I'm no egghead but I'm an ex-worker man
WC hero friend - and not water closet!
There's a barrier between writer and singer
Uh huh he's a good man although a lazy one
The singer is a neurotic drinker
The band little more than a big crashing beat
Instruments collide and we all get drunk
The last two lines were a quote, yeah
When we read them we went to pieces
We went to pieces, yeah
We went to pieces, yeah regularly
One day a week i'm a printhead, yeah
Twenty pence a week dirty fingers
Printhead
With print you substitute an ear
For an extra useless eye
