Arrangement, Production & Final Mix by Gordon Midgley

In case you’re wondering why the track is called what it is then I cannot tell a lie. it’s all Gordon’s fault.  I was having an email conversation with him about life, the universe and everything when, for no reason I could easily glean at the time, he said “I’ve got to go and walk to Asda in the fog". I wasn’t sure if he meant he could only walk to Asda if there was fog or that he just needed a walk in the fog and Asda was as welcoming a place to go as anywhere else or, more simply, that he had to get some groceries and Asda was the nearest and most convenient place to go in such inclement weather. Whatever the reason, my immediate thought was “What a great title for a song…”.

There’s certainly no shortage of songs about Covid-19 but I just couldn’t resist the temptation Gord had inadvertently sent my way to vent some of my Covid frustrations.  If you chance to read the lyrics and aren’t from the UK, I should explain that all of the words in capital letters are the names of UK supermarket chain stores.  You may also be wondering why I mentioned the Royal Yacht so, for those of you that hadn’t heard, our wonderful government, in the midst of the pandemic and the financial constraints it was placing on the country, announced that it was commissioning the building of a new one at a cost of somewhere around 200 million pounds.  Isn’t it good to know they have their fingers firmly on the pulse of public spending at times like these?

For some time now, Gal and myself have wanted to work on a track with both Gord and Arkestar and for many reasons, this particular song seemed to lend itself really well to the idea.  We’d therefore both like to thank them for lending their unrelentingly brilliant skills and commitment to the entire project and for making it such a complete pleasure to work on.  We certainly had more fun than we’d a right to. Thanks again for listening. (Terry Reeves)

Walking to ASDA in the fog
Every step with a loud paradiddle 
Avoid a variant of thickening smog
Strings of ministers in cabinet fiddle

Who got it?

Running to TESCO in falling snow
Remaining safe, wash all our hands
Vaccination waits for protection show
Sharp scratch but no summer sands

She got it
He got it

Skate to SAINSBURY’S on slippery ice
Peering to find the unforgiven Lord
Discuss the increasing price of rice
Politicians cut with ceremonial sword

Who needs it?

One, two cold runnings to MORRISON’S way
Sliding monobob a lonely lockdown 
Cresta pandemic flat on skeleton tray
Oxford to Moderna safety COVID town

Middle

Adventurous trip to the ICELAND’S
Climbing frozen peaks in cabinet change
Arctic conditions finding blue diamonds
Words of memoirs on only one page

Who reads it?

Freezer in ALDI like a 63 mission
Hunting food to last past pandemic 
People buy rolls with zero nutrition 
Persuasion ignored by Academics 

Who wants it?
They missed it

Running to LIDL in the ice-kissed smog
Chance of surviving a Third World War
Is there time to buy a new Royal Yacht?
I don’t think so!

WALKING TO ASDA IN THE FOG:  CRIPPLE CLUB with GORDON MIDGLEY & ARKESTAR

It's if-I-was-forced-to-choose-as-which-album-I-am-reborn-I-would-go-for-Headhunters music Sunday!

This track features a secretly borrowed real violin, a sampled Chinese wok filled with water, and a saltmill from the Wieliczka salt mine. As we say here: Zum Wohl!

Pronouns

Verse 1:
Yes I grew up with he and she and they
I was the me in my land night and day

They was a pronoun for plural
As if it was on a giant mural

Chorus:
I was unaware 
that in the air
these pronouns 
needed a slowdown 

Verse 2:
“They” meant a group of people
Especially for those under the steeple
They wasn’t an individual
Despite the visual

I never dreamed 
And so it seemed
That someone would prefer
That they refer to  her

Final Verse:
Basic humanity
Call someone what they want
Be it he, she, they or something else

Unused Lyrical Ideas:
they may not fit everyone, 
and it’s not always fun
that it might be a preferred pronoun for an individual
Even someone viewed as irresistible
Now there are choices that an individual may prefer
I hear Ze, Hir, Hirs, 
However the plural they/them/theirs my be preferred in it’s singular form 
as it is more encompassing of gender
Yes, its basic human empathy
If someone goes by he, then call them he
If someone goes by she, then call them she
If someone goes by they, then call them they
Non-binary
Gay

Au zénith (Remaster)

Lush psychedelic nightmares exposing healthcare dirty secret - age is a pre-existing condition.

The Waiting Room

It’s hard to believe that this song written by Paul Simon in 1964 is over half a century old. Like a true work of art, it has withstood the test of time. An interesting anecdote Simon wrote this song in his bathroom where his guitar would have an “echo” effect.
I hope you enjoy my version.

ONCE IN A LIFETIME
LYRICS:-
So you can sell us pretty pictures in your cinemas
And you can sell us your technology and real fast cars
So you can tell us pretty stories in your history books
But you won't tell us of the heroes who've been overlooked

And now it seems the tide is turning on your great facade
You just ran out of luck and drew the losing card

We are now in a once in a lifetime
And onto a whole other timeline
It's clear this is just at the right time
It's true
Yes this is once in a lifetime
And we have been given a lifeline
We know this is just about high time
It's new

So you can can sell us all the war and hate and we just lap it up
And you can sell us all the ammunition to back it up
So you can tell us of the brand new cure for your disease
But you can't keep us from uniting that's our expertise

But now it seems the tide is turning on your great facade
You just ran out of luck and drew the losing card

We are now in a once in a lifetime
And onto a whole other timeline
It's clear this is just at the right time
It's true
Yes this is once in a lifetime
And we have been given a lifeline
We know this is just about high time
It's new
