Half Man Half Biscuit: 4AD3DCD

4AD3DCD

I dream of occasional fanzine mentions
I’ve been to one too many David Lynch Conventions
I play postal chess with a man who doesn’t know me
I’ve got a better frown than Tony Iommi
And I’ve got a 4AD3DCD
A 4AD3DCD
A 4AD3DCD
And I’m on a foundation course

Formed a band and had loads of good songs like
“Love Froth Tuesday”, “Pancake Candy Shoes”
Got a good guitarist, but he’s got a sad barnet
“Kiss Cream Carnival”, “Lime Sky Spooky Pills”
It’s me 4AD3DCD
Me 4AD3DCD
Me 4AD3DCD
And I’m on a foundation course

Playing eerie madrigals
On the campus egg slicer
I’m a pop sensation
I’m an all-round icon

Thank God Cardigan
Laugh Crash Sunday School
Kiss Cream Carnival
Lime Sky Spooky Pills
The flotsam, the jetsam
The cherubim and seraphim
On me foundation course
Of course
You’re the man, Ray

It’s me 4AD3DCD
Me 4AD3DCD
David Dundas got no rock cakes
It don’t worry me none bro’

Note from Chris The Siteowner:
I tend to act on lyric corrections usually only when somebody backs up an initial suggestion. If a correction doesn't get a seconder, I usually let it go (unless it's so obviously the right thing to do). However, if you feel strongly that I shouldn't have ignored a suggestion, feel free to re-post your comment and ask for some support!
