Field Day for the Sundays Lyrics
I wanna be a field day for the Sundays
so they can fuck up my life,
embarass my wife,
and leave a bad taste
That striped toothpaste,
can't remove on Monday morning
I wanna be a target for the dailys so they can show
pictures of me, with a nude on page 3
so lacking in taste
touched up near the waste, looking as limp as Monday morning.
touched up near the waste, looking as limp as Monday morning.
so they can fuck up my life,
embarass my wife,
and leave a bad taste
can't remove on Monday morning
pictures of me, with a nude on page 3
so lacking in taste
touched up near the waste, looking as limp as Monday morning.

28 seconds long, this song.
Obviously it's about people who go looking for 'fame' in tabloid newspapers. Wire say more in this 30 seconds than most bands do in their entire careers.

this is amazing.
