๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ Mikey T. Chas The Dog And Momo The Cat ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ The Strays ooops I mean Cassette Apes (๐Ÿ‘ˆ truly inspired band name) are fuckin excellent. I'm an old git and they kinda remind me of APF Brigade from Peterborough who were doing this kind of stuff 1981ish and appeared on Crass first compilation album Bullshit Detector, although Cassette Apes are definitely more musically sussed. Give this a listen you'll not regret it. Rock on folks ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’“๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I fell asleep in the middle of a wank Stockport Syndrome If I won a BAFTA I'd have nobody to thank Stockport Syndrome What colour balaclava would you wear to rob a bank Stockport Syndrome I paid her for the night but I've got nothing in the tank Stockport Syndrome Keep your ear to the ground Word gets around town They're giving you the run around Best keep your head down We went out together now I'm coming home alone Stockport Syndrome I lost the girl and I lost my phone Stockport Syndrome The meat on this kebab has never seen a fucking bone Stockport Syndrome Just to flag a cab costs a payday loan Stockport Syndrome Keep your ear to the ground Word gets around town They're giving you the run around Best keep your head down Keep your ear to the ground Word gets around town They're giving you the run around Best keep your head down

The man makes the money and he's cashing it in This ain't a race we ever can win Loving money is a cardinal sin Just check out the banker because he's wearing a grin He tells a good story but it's wearing thin I can't hear what he's saying over this fucking din If he's after my money he can kiss my ring So I give him the directions to a charity bin Charity bin Charity bin Charity bin The man takes the money and he's spending it quick He's brought a big car because he's got a small dick Loving money is the root of all evil Look at that wanker he's knee deep in treacle Sticky fingered cunt That's not a Rolex you're a faker Let's see you shake that money maker Money from the punters Shove it in your wallet Your heads full of shit like Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic The man makes the money and he's cashing it in This ain't a race we ever can win Loving money is a cardinal sin Just check out the banker because he's wearing a grin That's not a Rolex you're a faker Let's see you shake that money maker Money from the punters Shove it in your wallet Your heads full of shit like Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic Johnny Mnemonic

Doctors tired Covered in gore Heath cares free and you get what you pay for Food tastes shit Patients grumpy A finger up his arse and ask him if he's comfy Don't get sick Don't get sick Nurse is skint Covered in bile Still got time for a wink and a smile Wards are dirty They've got no beds The doctor mixed up my grandads meds Don't get sick Don't get sick Four Five Six Don't get sick Seven Eight Nine Wait in line You'll be fine Nuns in the chapel Oh for Christ sake The gift shops shit They don't sell grapes They'll make you better just like they should And send you home with a superbug You'll get sick You'll get sick The surgeons drunk and he's botched the surgery Have you got an appointment? It's an emergency! The NHS has got no future It's gone to shit So I'm joining Bupa I won't get sick I won't get sick Don't get sick Don't get sick Four Five Six Don't get sick Seven Eight Nine Wait in line You'll be fine

Sitting pretty with a gun to my head Gone in the head I hate the dark so I painted it red Gone in the head They didn't hear a single word I said Gone in the head Often wonder if I'm better off dead Gone in the head Save your lies for the FBI Semi delusional state of mind Peel the layers you know what you might find.. Gone in the head you know I'm not quite right Gone in the head Gone in the head Codeine queen with a bottle of meds Gone in the head Bought with a tenner that she won at Bet Fred Gone in the head To pay the bills she'll take you bed Money for head Everybody says she's better off dead Gone in the head Save your lies for the FBI Semi delusional state of mind Peel the layers you know what you might find.. Gone in the head you know I'm not quite right Gone in the head Gone in the head Gone in the head Gone in the head Gone in the head Gone in the head Tied to a chair and they shave my head Gone in the head Heavy sedation kept well fed Gone in the head Days are long and filled with dread Gone in the head Locked in a room and left for dead Gone in the head Save your lies for the FBI Semi delusional state of mind Peel the layers you know what you might find.. Gone in the head you know I'm not quite right Gone in the head Gone in the head Gone in the head Gone in the head

A million channels and there's nothing on Arguing whether it's scone or scone A rash on my arse and I'm putting weight on Heart burn but no Gaviscon It's all getting so outrageous You better call Richard Dreyfuss Milks gone sour and made my fridge stink Call a shirt salmon when it's actually pink Next door neighbour took a shit in my sink Big bomb of phet in a little fizzy drink It's all getting so outrageous You better call Richard Dreyfuss Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us No one can save us Give a man change and it makes you think But you know he's only gonna buy drugs and drink Oh, leathers just fine but we all hate mink World won't end but they'll take us to the brink It's all getting so outrageous You better call Richard Dreyfuss Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us No one can save us It's all getting so outrageous You better call Richard Dreyfuss Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us Richard Dreyfuss sent to save us No one can save us

Pay Per View 03:07
Don't recognise these road signs This city looks dead to me We just keep following white lines Roads are taxed but the air is free Now just one look will cost you These streets are painted black You're just one face in a thousand Watch where you walk Don't fall through the cracks Watching you On pay per-view You're a big big star It's what they do To get to you You'll go far far far I followed the warning signs These people look dead to me I follow my nose down white lines No end in sight for me Now just one look will shock you Sick streets are paved in shit You're just a penny in a pocket Watch where you walk Don't fall in the pit Watching you On pay per-view You're a big big star It's what they do To get to you You'll go far far far Pay per-view Pay per-view Pay per-view They'll get you Watching you On pay per-view You're a big big star It's what they do To get to you You'll go far far far

Cold Caller 02:53
What are you selling mate? I don't want Sky I have never heard of PPI Haven't been injured You waste my time Stick your claim where the sun don't shine Cold caller Cold caller You seem to know a lot about the accident I've had Where is that you're calling from? The screen says Baghdad You're tying up the line I missed a call from from my grandad We put him in a home if I don't answer he goes mad Cold caller Cold caller Cold caller They call me at work They call me at home Six fucking times I've changed my phone Shouting, screaming Leave me alone But they're all like dogs with a bone Cold caller I call them back and they put me on hold I'll be sitting here 'til I'm grey and old These things give you cancer So I've been told This conversation's gone cold Cold caller Cold caller Cold caller Cold caller Cold caller Cold caller Cold caller

Sometimes we don't know where we're going Things from the dirt keep growing Sometimes the river stops flowing There's no accusations we're throwing Because there is no way of knowing Can you feel my heart slowing It's a debt we all end up owing We're all just to-ing and fro-ing Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Sometimes we don't get what we've seen Because we can't see where we've been There's no one around to hear you scream It's all like a bad fucking dream All a grind All routine Modern life can be obscene Dirt on the street Filth on the screen No amount of scrubbing is gonna get that clean Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room Love in the afternoon Death in the viper room
