The Fall - IT'S THE NEW THING! lyrics

My boys take what I say

Do it the studio way

New equipment all clean

New gear

Clothes mean

I answer and take the calls

No trouble with the law

Turn it up for interviewers

Oh yeah prime movers

I wonder what is next year's thing?

Crash smash crash ring

They've got another side

Pop heroes of the mind

While you suckers queue or work

Money for us and play it up

We have never sold out

Spent hours on a clever act

Phoney advertising quotes that make you buy some raise your hopes

That it's the new leather thing

Crash smash crash ring

The broken backs of the real bands

A million closed minds

Weep for the old glam

Year of the average man

The Worst died because of you

Along with some others too

Erasing off our rainbows

We are men, we have big toes!

It's the new leather thing

Crash smash crash ring

Houdini believed his tricks

That is why he died

Oh I'm not coming out

There may be a film on tonight

Or Eliot's Untouchables

As for new hotels

Look like science fiction films or revival gothic pigswill

Watch the skies, what to think

Crash smash crash ring

[Bramah:] Rocket! / Rock it!

It's the new leather thing

Ba ba ba doo.....

New leather thing

Yow!
