I always thought it was ‘Thank God Cardigan LEFT Crash Sunday School’
…but I could be wrong.

Moo
I never got ‘campus egg slicer’ before I saw it written down. Lyrics just don’t come any better than that.
I’m pretty sure it is “laugh crash sunday school”…

Neil G
Do you think ‘you’re the man, Ray’ is a reference to Man Ray, the famous photographer? If so, why? Could it be a tacit comment upon the pretentiosness of the 4AD type artist? I have to admit to owning a 4AD CD, The Drift by Scott Walker, which is utterly brilliant. My only regret is it’s not a 3D one.

Man Ray is a reference to the artist (so Colin McKay told me)
