| King Creosote – Relate The Tale Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This was written for the Plague Songs compilation, and takes a frog's eye view of the Plague of Frogs. | |
| King Creosote – You've No Clue Do You Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
There's some great puns in this song ostensibly about Cluedo. "Rules of thumb" "index" "mustard" "seed sower" "ham" and Reverend Green is envious. So the "doe" or "dough" line is one of those. |

It means nothing. The title is a pun on a french term for that. |

| King Creosote – And The Racket They Made Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
HMS Ginafore wrote this song. She writes metaphors of the sea like no-one does. Lovely. And King Creosote's version is excellent too. |

| Cracker – Superfan Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about fans of bands who take their fandom too far. I guess you get a lot of knowledge about people from their interviews and their more personal songs and it's often easy to cross the line and think you know that person (and forget that they may not be writing those songs in the first person). You know liked Eminem said in that song he wrote about Phil Collins ? That's the super fan. Obsessive, overbearing and outoftheirmind. Kind of like the opposite of "Killing me Softly with his song" you know ? Anyway, I met David Lowery and he was like really cool. |

| Camper Van Beethoven – Surprise Truck Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
You know how in films where someone steps in the road and they got run over suddenly even when there was no sound of an approaching vehicle ? That's a surprise truck. It is not the Magic Bus that The Who sang about. That's for sure. |
