Lyrics 

Pay your respects to the vultures
For they are your future
Our fathers and mothers have
Our fathers and mothers have
They have failed to release us
They have failed to release us
They have failed to release us
Into the welcoming arms
Of the amethyst deceivers

So pay your respects
So pay your respects
Pay your respects to the vultures
And to the crows
And to the carrion crows
And to the ravens
Those graven ravens
And to the carrion crows
And to the rooks
And to the rook
And to the vultures
And to the vultures
And to the vultures

Pay your respects to the vultures
For they are our future
For they are your future
Our fathers and mothers have
Our fathers and mothers have
Our fathers and mothers have
They have failed to release us
Into the welcoming arms
Into the welcoming arms
Into the welcoming arms
Of the amethyst
Of the amethyst

The little mushrooms
The little mushrooms
Welcoming arms
Of the amethyst
Of the amethyst deceivers

Closest Thing To Heaven (North East Bands)

This page has themed 'Fenella & Simon' shows and episodes of 'Post Punk Britain'.

Simon McKay presents ‘Post Punk Britain’ – music from the late 70s/early 80s that was considered weird and artless at the time, but now – very influential... playing punk, post-punk and always some reggae.

Fenella Fielding and Simon McKay present the 'Fenella & Simon' shows.  Music and chat - generally, an exploration of lesser known music in a genre such as soul, gospel or soundtrack.

Please see associated website for interviews and photos of lots of the bands featured: www.eccentricsleevenotes.com
