You walked into the city like you'd walked into the sea and let the crowds envelop you, drowning in their pity. The feeling of the salty waves splashing on your face leave you longing for the comfort of a retail tidal wave. We've put a price on happiness, we have discounted happiness. You hope the vast expanse of water will engulf you instantly while the other swimmers pass you by, moving expertly. You love the feeling of the salty waves splashing on your face and you're longing for the comfort of a retail tidal wave. Ba ba ba ba. We've put a price on happiness, we have discounted happiness. You walked into the city like you'd walked into the sea and let the crowds envelop you, drowning in their pity.

I'll put on my hat and coat, have you seen my scarf and gloves? Could I borrow yours tonight and I will mail them back to you as I walk home through the dusty streets, past disused buildings, past fallen trees. When I get home I'll rest my head on unwashed clothes in an unmade bed. I'll try to finish my jigsaw of planet earth but something's wrong. Britain's missing and so is France, Iceland, Poland and Japan. The whole of Asia, Africa, Australasia, Antarctica. But the USA seems bigger than I remember. This isn't how I remember it.

I had some unfaithful friends, they all left in the end to get jobs pushing buttons for the government. Oh what a bore. They call me Kid Chameleon, I change almost every day. I'm running but I don't know why, I'm running so I don't die. I spit on the government, I spit on hypocrisy, I spit on inequality, I spit on you.

Captain Polaroid Birmingham

My fuzzy, shambolic lo-fi pop is thrown carelessly out of a bedroom window in Birmingham, UK.
