about

Hair of the Dog is a song straight from the booze-soaked fag-butted armpit-stinking city streets. A sweaty and desperate jaunt staggering over those dregs of Saturday night, seen through the bottom of a dirty lager glass.

"Don't wait up!"

lyrics

Hair of the Dog


Jokers chase their tails in the night
Mouths of forbidden naughty delights
Scrumped from sacred orchard walls
Grown in sunshine pleasure halls
Grown in beautiful sun

They rage through the city hungry for a bite
Of the slippery tail of paradise
Like hungry jackals sniffing for bones
Like greedy dragons stretching jewel-crusted wings

The blood-moon dries their juicy smiles
Sealed by wind from the Emporer's bowels
Guts formed into a twisted sign
Bums weighed down with regal piles

They scream, they cry
They drink the tears from the animal's eye
They moan, they weep
They cling on by the skin of their teeth

Raw and fibrous commodities
Humours aligned with the galaxies
Straining through that lonely night
From inside the belly it's one hell of a fight

Fear the days of the death of gold
Fear the unstoppable sword of force
Fear the writhing, burping, unwashed hoards
Fear the day the Capital falls
The day the city falls

Plunge to the centre of the hyper-course
Born in the guts of digestive force
Where pain and pleasure are just things to be bought
In the sacred underground reactor core

They scream, they cry
They drink the tears from the animal's eye
They moan, they weep
They cling on by the skin of their teeth

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
