about

Recorded at Creature Sound, Swansea, 2017/2018
Engineered and mixed by Allen Chambers

lyrics

you can read in this light
but you're going to hurt your eyes
outside, voices on the pavement
frozen in amazement at themselves

you are a beautiful fake,
but there's something I can't shake
and it's all too much to take
on beaujolais day

you can suffer for your art
and you can tear yourself apart
but how long's it going to take you?
You could have gone to Ibitha
but there was nobody there to meet you
and now you can't afford to go
Can you??

The condom machine
is not what it seems
and you don't know where you've been
on beaujolais day

You are a beautiful fake
but there's something I can't shake
and it's all too much to take
on beaujolais day
on beaujolais day
on beaujolais day
on beaujolais day
