Name: Mutualade
Duration: P00H02M38S
Description: My friend Ramsey Kanaan & his family were making a flying visit to see his partner Sasha's family in Lewes. In the course of our lunchtime meeting, Sasha thought I ought to write a song about Kropotkin's connection with Brighton - so I did. I hope the influence of Leon Rosselson is not TOO obvious here...

lyrics

MUTUALADE

THERE’S GORDONS GIN & HARVEY’S BEER
COCKTAILS AT THE SHIP
CASH OR CARD IT HITS YOU HARD
COS NOTHING’S CHEAP AS CHIPS
THERE’S NEWS REPORTS & SPORT SPORT SPORT
FOR THE POST FACT PROLETARIAN
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM

YOU THINK YOU’RE MADE OF BRIGHTON ROCK
OR OLD SCHOOL SUSSEX PIE
LIKE THE CLOUDS ARE MADE OF CANDY FLOSS
& THE SEA IS MADE OF SKY
NATURE’S RED IN TOOTH & CLAW
SAYS THE LAUREATE, LORD TENNYSON
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM

WITH KROPOTKIN,
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM

WE GO UP & DOWN & ROUND & ROUND
HORSES TURN TO CARS
THE GHOST TRAIN CALLS NO MATTER WHO
YOU LIKE TO THINK YOU ARE
A STAR IN GOD’S GREAT GUTTER
OR THE BIG BANG’S PLANETARIUM
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM

WITH KROPOTKIN,
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM

KROPOTKIN DRIVES THE 49
IT GOES WHEREVER WE WANT
IT STOPS & GIVES FREE TICKETS TOO
TO VEGAN RESTAURANTS
YOU MIGHT DREAM OF SUBMARINES
OR A TAX FREE HONORARIUM
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM

WITH KROPOTKIN,
BUT MINE’S A PINT OF MUTUALADE
AT THE OLD SEA LIFE AQUARIUM
