What is up with this song? For the love of mod, I cannot figure it out. It involves a horse that sounds like it's having an orgasm and a boy who has been expelled on the account of being "criminally insane"..... ?!?!?!

What is up is that the Avalanches like sampling.  I don't think it’s supposed to *mean* anything.

The criminally insane boy is Dexter Fishpaw from Polyester.

hem... I recognize the voice now. Thanks. I guess you're right. Kinda like Moby; it's still good to listen too.

A really great song. Hehe just wacky.


Bearing in mind this is my typing what I'm hearing.

Is Dexter ill?
But Mr Kirk Dexters in school
I'm afraid not Miss Spacemore Dexters truancy problem is way out of hand
The Baltimore country school board has decided to expell Dexter from the entire public school system
Why Mr Kirk I'm as upset as you are about Dexters truancy but surely expulsion is not the answer
I'm afraid expulsion is the only answer. It's the opinion of the entire board that Dexter is criminally insane

That boy needs therapy psychosematic that boy needs therapy purely psychosematic that boy needs therapy
lie down on the couch what does that mean you're a natural you're crazy in the coconut
what does that mean that boy needs therapy

I'm gonna kill you that boy needs therapy  rannakazoo lets have it you now when i count three that boy needs therapy he was white as a sheet and he also made false teeth

did I ever tell you the story about cowboys n pigeons and indians and frontier psychiatrist I felt strangley hypnotised I was in another world a world of twenty thousand girls and milk and rectangles and <something> optomertrists the man with the golden eyeball and tighten your buttocks and pour juice on your chin I promised my girlfriend I could pick the violin

Frontier psychiatrist
frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier psychiatrist
frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier psychiatrist
frontier, frontier.....frontier psychiatrist
frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier psychiatrist

That boy needs therapy psychosematic that boy needs therapy purely psychosematic that boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch what does that mean you're a natural you're crazy in the coconut
What does that mean that boy needs therapy
I'm gonna kill you that boy needs therapy rannakazoo lets have it you now when I count three that boy needs therapy he was white as a sheet and he also made false teeth

Frontier psychiatrist.

Can you think of anything that can talk, other than a person? A bird? Yeah
Sometimes a parrot talks

Yes some birds are funny when they talk. Can you think of anything else

Uh, a record? (record record record...)



That's as clsoe as I can get. :)

the lyrics to that song are like the kinda thing if h.p. lovecraft would use if he wrote this long, elaborate piece about shape shifters, incest and insanity and couldn't think of an ending.

Quote from: James
THIS TIME, I AM THE INDIE ONE.


Reading the lyrics, I have realised that I have heard this track being played by the late, great Mr. John Peel on his world-service show, about two-three years back, I would say.

I actually remember thinking it was pretty ok.

I only spotted two mistakes. Its disturbing that I know those lines from memory. God I love the avalanches though. There's something about fat coal miners dancing with two gorgeous women that really turns my crank.
