Always/never (Jackal out) 02:25
lyrics
Ooh, we never had a chance here Ooh, we never had a chance Ooh, you hung us out to dry here Cos you can never stick to plans I think that you should know I think that you should know I think that you should number each one of your failings From one up to a million I think that you should say I think that you should say I think that you should say you're sorry in the morning And with a halo of light Blurring the outlines of your prostrate form I might have the weakness to forgive 'Til the next time you let me down Cos you always let me down Like a disappointing ready meal for one But the next time you let me down Will be the last time you let me down
2.
I would hope (Giraffe out) 02:33
lyrics
If I read between the lines If I put my ear down to the ground I'm picking up the merest hint of wishing some affliction on me Nothing too life-ending, just a bit of pain to educate me Now I see the workings of your heart If I take a step away If I put my feelings to the side You would make a subject of the very highest kind of order I'll take you to my lab and work out what exists behind the temper Maybe there's a pill you haven't tried? Not that I've a licence to prescribe Or take your chances as you are Your circus won't be moving far Though I would hope that we are past that Yeah I would hope you will be understood Yeah I would hope that I can hold on Yeah I would hope you will be understood

Ship fulla holes (Giraffe in) 03:02
lyrics
It kinda hurts when you tell me "Unpleasant truths" you think I need to hear All tied up with a bow And it kinda hurts when the darts land One between the eyes, and one in each ear Nestled into the bone But I don't believe you have a point I don't believe you have a point No I don't believe you have a point Not even a little point It kinda hurts when you tell me That I'll never mean much at all to you Even worse than the darts And it kinda hurts like a car crash It's a sudden impact to the chest Before all turns to dark Cos I'm not indestructible In fact I'm pretty much averagely vulnerable And despite all the tough talk, this is Rapidly becoming unbearable So I might need to find a place to stay Just for a while Just 'til I've steadied the ship and decided whether it's worth Patching the holes Or whether to give it all up as a lost cause Lay her to rest on the sea bed Cos I need more light

Catastrophe du jour (Jackal in) 03:11
lyrics
Poor, poor me Poor, poor me Well, a mediocre omelette is the best I can achieve Set them free Set them free Yeah, the eggs are broken now and you're regretting asking me But once the shells are shattered it can never be undone Yet again Yet again You gave the simplest of instructions and they sailed over my head And I can see Yeah I can see That I'm kindergarten-standard in a room where everyone has a degree Hold up my hand To be excused Go hang my head Back in my room If you want someone to fuck this up I will be your stand-out candidate If you want to make yourself look good Stand next to me in a line and wait Poor, poor you Poor, poor you You're just a step or two away from my catastrophe du jour Poor, poor you Poor, poor you Cos every time you look at me I will have found a way to fuck up something new

about

If more bands made records inspired by training courses they'd been on...the world probably wouldn't be a better place.
