The Fall - HURRICANE EDWARD lyrics

(taped narrative):

Awake at 5am

Mr Hughes was right in retrospect

He knew the climate

I was a farm hand in Ross County

Then he came

The Hurricane

(MES):

This cleanliness won't take your brass

Mr Greaves was right in retrospect

He knew this climate

I'm not an ordinary guy

Am I?

I held yellow thick ropes

So died before him

I was a farm hand

Then came

Hurricane

Then came

Hurricane

Asleep at twelve thirty

In cosy cots

I get up early

I plough the land

Then came

Hurricane

My ears are rushed

My ears are rushed

There are characters in my brain

Hurricane rushed

Come at will

(jeers)

(Tommy):

I was always awake from 5 am

Mr Hughes was right in retrospect

He knew this climate

Ross County town

Bank is closed

Then come

Hurricane
