Los Campesinos! – Knee Deep at ATP Lyrics 13 years ago
Haha, I read High Fidelity fairly recently and it totally reminded me of this song too when it's mentioned in the book. Intentional? Highly possible. Great song and great festival.

Patrick Wolf – Hard Times Lyrics 15 years ago
Correct lyrics:


As they
Dig your ditches
Count my stitches

Generation justice
Wishes for
World at war
Final score
Media come and abhor us
These
Our hard times
But we'll work harder, harder
Give me hard times
And I'll work harder, harder

Divided nation
In sedation
Overload of information
That we have grown up
To ignore...
Mediocrity applauded
Through these hard times
We'll work harder
Give me hard times
And I'll work harder, harder

For revolution

Show me some
Resolution
And this
Battle will be won

Forced to count the hours
Since two towers
Fell to fiction those higher powers
Putting gods to war
Who keeps score?

Ignorance is still adored
All through these hard times
We'll work harder, harder
Give me hard times
And I'll work harder harder
For revolution
Show me some revolution

This battle will be won

If they only see you with their fear
And they only hear you with their pride

Then work harder

Harder

Thank you jofwu, I understand this song a lot more now!

The whole "You have to let the fire consume you to truly experience it." thing.

Cheers!

mewithoutYou – The King Beetle on a Coconut Estate Lyrics 15 years ago
I am thoroughly confused by this song.

Obviously Aaron is very religious, and with most of the songs on the album this is clear.

However, this one is different.

The song tells of how the King Beetle sacrifices his life in the name of God due to what he believed to be a sign from God...but it wasn't a sign from God at all, it was just the day-help burning leaves.

The last line, "why not be utterly changed into fire?" to me seems almost sarcastic - "yeah, sure, why not sacrifice yourself for this so-called God because of some burning leaves you thought was a sign?"

I'd be interested to hear a more pro-Christian response (which presumably was how Aaron meant it to be interpreted).

James – One of the Three Lyrics 17 years ago
This is a great song, questioning Jesus. Maybe that makes me appreciate it more as I'm an atheist...
