Artist Bio:

Come in, sit down, make yourself at home! Feel free to explore the little group of musical experiments that's lurking over there in the corner, muttering incongruously to itself - I hope that you enjoy them as much as they enjoy themselves.

Misanthropy formed in 1982 from just a few cells, which gradually multiplied until there was a whole person. It went to school and learnt about stuff, and then went to university and learnt about more stuff. Various noises were emitted throughout this process, some of which were recorded, and account for this page. The management can accept no responsibility for any liver damage caused by listening to these improperly.

Lyrics: Click To View Or Hide Song Lyrics
Moonlight through the mist October
Think I'm falling in
Reflections drowning on the water
Stars play sink or swim
Shadows of the trees float by
Beneath the bridge and wave goodbye

The evening's flowing by below us
What's it trying to find?
Midnight? Morning? I don't know
Half past closing time
The autumn wind blows through the leaves
The river shines, the starlight breathes

Fog is wandering through lamplight
Time passing through old stones
Others young and warm once stood here
Forgotten, dead and gone
Tonight we're so full of life and hope
One day some passer-by will feel our ghosts

Moonlight through the mist October
Think I'm falling in
Reflections drowning on the water
Stars play sink or swim
Shadows of the trees float by
Beneath the bridge and wave goodbye

Lyrics: Click To View Or Hide Song Lyrics
I'll follow in your wheel ruts
Down paper-trails of last year's luck
To cut along the dotted lines
Left for me further down the track

When the paths all come undone
I'll double back to find no-one
And footprints will go on alone
Treading empty trails of nowhere much

I'll meet you where the fences cross
Where the miles unwind and the days get lost
To swap you old leaves and a handful of moss
For a spraypainted heart and a rainfaded cross

Lyrics: Click To View Or Hide Song Lyrics
Feel the undertone spin
Twice as fast as last year
Doublespeed, original
That's teamwork,
Progress and gravity

Jet trails and steel wire
They haven't found it yet
Locked in, tangled up
In maximum efficiency
Dependent self-sufficiency

Through padded double gates
A twelve-foot fence
For your freedom and security
See the eyes in the walls
All part of the service

Improvements and loose screws
Prioirities diverted
They'll never notice
Re-inforced and running down
But they'll never prove it

Replaced and relocated
Don't be alarmed
Panicproof, over-run and waiting
Just pretend I'm not here
Just pretend I'm not here

Feel the undertone spin
Twice as fast as last year
Doublespeed, original
That's teamwork
That's teamwork
