Lyrics

When the drugs hit you
Tingly begins
Conviction + tone = hope
Under the threat of separation
The nadir's fluorescent
The shriek of a gull
Suspended in air
The sound of the sea
Anywhere! anywhere!

When the drugs quit you
As loyal as a fruit fly you'll mutter to yourself
'You talentless fuck, good fucking luck
Good fucking luck'
A delicatessen
Shriek of a horn
Suspended in air
The sound of the town
Anywhere! anywhere!

It quits you in situ
And here it begins
Quits you at a payphone in the snow
One night in copenhagen
One night in copenhagen
And ya know
The nadir's fluorescent
The shriek of a gull
Suspended in air
The sound of the town
Anywhere! anywhere!
