Brixton is Weird

Written and recorded by Mick Dickinson in September 1991 at Tyler House, Stockwell Park Estate, London. The tune uses a drum riff from a Public Enemy record.

LYRICS

Forget London and the drip-feed of the dole
Jump in the van with me
We're gonna drive down a hole
Gonna drive down a hole
We had some good times
But then we just went cold
We seem to be in different flows
Looks like we froze!


Forget London

Written and recorded by Mick Dickinson, September 1991, at Tyler House, Stockwell Park Estate, London. A girl was pregnant but had a termination. They were young and living outside the law. Who knows if it was the right thing to do. A blurred memory now. A man can't know what it was like. 

LYRICS

Cells divide
And the skin is stretched tighter.
We collide
With a kiss like the punch of a famous fighter.
Hide that smile
You won't see your toes in a few months, baby.
Joking aside
I'll give you all my hindsight if you can make me wise.

Cells divide
The skin is stretched tighter.
In your eyes 
You're sure, then you blink, and I cannot decide.
We will find 
That everything's changed and we've come miles.
You are high
With a feeling that you've got that can never be mine.

Cells divide

Written and recorded by Mick Dickinson in September 1991 at Tyler House, Stockwell Park Estate, London. Four-track cassette Tascam Portastudio. 

LYRICS
In the red cinema
Blood seeps from the walls
The girl in the row below
Slips and slow falls
She trips

Rocks too soft
Broken glass too tasty
The light not much like sunlight
A good thing turns bad
Rotten eyes recognise
Something they'd never seen

BREAK
She cheats with him I'll kill her (X 4)
