The Faraway Tree

agutterfan Wonderful horn arrangement, surreal lyrics, slightly Bowie or Donovan acoustic track, could have been a 1968 cult 45, but also totally modern. "Melody helps you disintegrate", precisely.

about

We can't help it
Our brains have turned to mush
Tiny police man
Praise what he can't crush
We're playing at Joan of Arc
Staying out through the dark
And our closest friends cannot recall our face
As the sodomites and angels take their place

Melody helps you disintegrate
Melody helps you disintegrate
Will the faraway tree
Submit to the sea
Bang Bang

We don't love you
We just want your cash
To buy some lollies
And instagram your stash
We're vandalising breaking graves
Remember that Jesus saves
And those who couldn't find Him
They found Me
I'm another emperor
With my nudity

Melody helps you disintegrate
Melody helps you disintegrate
Will the faraway tree
Submit to the sea
Bang Bang
