about

Taken from the 2015 Split 7" Single.

lyrics

Everywhere you go I’m right beside you
There’s no-one who knows you the way I do
Yeah I know you hate nearly everything you make
You feel like a fraud, a phony and a fake.

You took a trip out into the outback
If you could get out far enough you thought that you would be free of
The endless sushi train of thoughts that plague your brain
The thoughts are all the same
Needle in the Hay.

I don’t need no introduction
I’ve been here since the beginning
I’m you’re thinking, always scheming, dreaming of escape
Eternal multi-ball inside a game you never played.

Here’s a notion
Drink this potion
Make me go away
Grass is greener
Life is sweeter
Everyone is gay
There’s nowhere to go or to get to anyway
There’s nowhere to go or to get to anyway.
Needle in the Hay.
