i’m happy that you’re here with me.
you know what i like.
you wash me with such loving care;
is that the way you used to wash your bike?
you touch me like your pride and joy –
i’m something you love.
i’m happy just to be your toy –
i can’t get enough.
(take him from me)
(take him from me)
(take him from me) i’m your man
(take him from me) i’m your man
it’s lovely that you’re at my side;
i’m glad you’re near.
you’re talking, and you’re talking, yeah, you talk for hours,
though you know i don’t hear.
i just feel vibrations,
running through the bed,
while memories of you and me
go tumbling through my head.
go find yourself a new love –
you know that it’s time.
i can’t keep you here no more –
that’d be a crime.
i’ll just close my mind now;
you won’t see me again.
i will love you for eternity.
please think of me now and then.

it’s in the morning, early morning,
in the morning i hear the news.
the man is gone, he’s gone away,
stop to listen as i wipe my tears.
is it true? it can’t be true,
days pass by, i still can’t believe.
i cannot listen, don’t wanna hear,
cannot bear the words on my ears.
little baby and her mummy,
first thing i think of when i hear the news.
you can’t replace a daughter’s father,
he’s the man that she don’t wanna lose.
he left a note, suicide note,
a last goodbye to the outside world:
don’t feel a passion for music no more –
what good is that to a little girl?
cry for seattle
the man is gone, he’s gone away,
stop to listen as i wipe my tears.
it can’t be true, it can’t be true,
don’t wanna hear it, cut off my ears.
cut off my ears, it can’t be true.
cry

Mr Wu's Pigs Deal, UK
The brand-new five-track DAVY DOES KENT EP is now up for pre-order!
Pairing catchy
tunes with lyrics that claw at the human underbelly, Mr Wu's Pigs lays raw but melodic vocals over jagged power chords and unrelenting drum patterns. The songs have led to Mr Wu’s Pigs drawing unexpected comparisons to acts such as Buzzcocks, T Rex, Bauhaus and Nirvana.

Mr Wu's Pigs recommends:
This is by far my favourite record of 2017. I play it all the time. It's heavy but poppy and grungy and fun.

The Land and the Garden
by Vic Mars
Everything Vic Mars does is worth checking out, but this is particularly brilliant: electronic pastoral music.

The Long Knives
by The Long Knives
I've been watching The Long Knives play great shows for the past seven years or so, and they never disappoint. This album captures them perfectly.

Higher and Higher Forever
by Zero Percent APR
Lo-fi indie that recalls the glory days of Shrimper and Shimmy Disc, where rock-solid melodies sit inside rickety instrumentation.

Nyxy Nyx - Thee 3rd Album
by Nyxy Nyx
The terrific new record from Nyxy Nyx recalls the best of the early ’90s—slow-moving, shoegaze-adjacent songs with woozy melodies.
