lyrics

*Bone architecture (E)
Five friends in the protest group, Five goons in the snatch squad swoop
Rows of shields and baton charged water cannon face enlarged.
Bone architecture, inferior structure protester on stretcher, un-British sector,
Stress the structure, un-glamorous fixture, caught in the mixture, protest elixir.
*It’s Just bone architecture, let him down, let him down!
Snapped neck like a spent matchstick, let him down, let him down.
Five friends are three with two in the van, mashed in the face, nose out of place,
Lost in a loop and fighting out, Blind in the soup I hear you shout.
Night stick, riot stick, pictures from phones
cracked bones, snapped bones and pavement stones.
Tear gas , pepper gas, smoke bomb yellow
Black eyes split ear squashed marshmallow
Blood in my mouth, teeth on the floor, Compound fracture shut in the door.
Three friends beaten one on the floor, my air, I’m crushed, pours out, no more.
*It’s Just bone architecture, let him down, let him down.
Snapped neck like a spent matchstick, let him down, let him down!
Inst . . . .
Five friends are three with two in the van, mashed in the face, nose out of place,
Lost in a loop and fighting out, Blind in the soup I hear you shout!
Night stick, riot stick, pictures from phones
cracked bones, snapped bones and pavement stones.
Tear gas , pepper gas, smoke bomb yellow
Black eyes split ear squashed marshmallow X2
*It’s Just bone architecture, let him down, let him down!!

Harry Stafford Manchester, UK

Harry Stafford is guitarist and singer of post-punk-blues-Gothic-rockers Inca Babies. The incas were formed in Manchester UK., in the 80s. In 2015 he decided to release some solo material that echoes his love of Blues Piano and barroom ballads. But 30 years with the incas meant it wasn’t going to be as musically simplistic as that. Guitar Shaped Hammers and Gothic Urban Blues are the result. ... more
