Lyrics
Mr P and his three-faced embassy
Walk hand in hand to a human parliament,
Chanting, ‘we got qualms with the rich,
qualms with the ill, qualms with the poor.’
Chanting, ‘we got qualms with the young,
qualms with the old, qualms with the poor.’
To murmured agreement.
The house sat, struck still,
In silent attentive frenzy until:
‘Throw your arms,’ he says, ‘up in an ecstasy.
And dance, white men, dance and repeat after me:
It’s now law that: one equals two,
One equals three, one equals four.
Now you’re getting it!
Praise unto me and let it be seen,
I am your Lord.’
‘But what do we call you?’
Came the voice of the interlocutor.
‘One, one, one, one call me Inspiration!’
Inspiration! Praise the name.
Inspiration! You came again.
Mr P’s six hundred and fifty-three faced embassy
Dance, dance, dance up to the edge of the sea.
‘To hurl yourself,’ he proclaims, ‘off the promontory,
Is to take my name in a meaningful reverie.’
A dissenter shouts, ‘wait a second.
We’re not the young, we’re not the old, we’re not the poor.
Anyway, my arm’s getting sore.
One, two, three, four let’s all go home.’
Mr P was left alone.
‘Say what? Come again.
Say what? Come again.
Say what? Come again.
I’m Inspiration.
But I came again.
But I came again.
But I came again.
No one want some inspiration?’
Mr P is left stranded on a coastal jut of white rock,
With Jesus, Zeus and a handful of sun gods,
Waiting, watching as the tide rolls in.
Going down into culture, drowning in and under all the culture
Going down, going down, into the sea, drowning in all this eternity.
If the earth feels small, throw yourself from a high wall
And watch as the ground grows tall.
‘We’re dropping like flies, what’s the plan?
Look up boys, see what we could’ve won.’
As we live, so we die, give it time.
Take the coins off your eyes, none survive.
Men are words, lives are lines, allay a life.
As we live as we die, no one needs us to survive.
As we live so we die, no one needs us to survive.
Take the coins off your eyes, no one needs us to survive.
Men are words, lives are lines, no one needs us to survive.
And we live then we die, no one needs us to survive.
Inspiration! Praise the name.
Inspiration! You came again.
Inspiration! Praise the name.
Inspiration! Don’t come again.

This popped up on my discover weekly playlist. Thank you Spotify! The album is incredible. Please come to Cairo!
ONE ONE ONE ONE CALL ME INSPIRATION
Random find! Love it!
belle découverte...
This song made me crazy 😩❤️❤️❤️
They sort of remind me of the Teardrop Explodes a bit? They're good live, I've seen them about three or four times now; once in a tiny pub in Sheffield, sat really close to the stage, with not that many people there...
Stunning band, I've been looping the album. If you see them again put a fifty pence piece in their socks. For me. To appreciate them. They earnt it.
The year-end chart of Piccadilly Records (a retailer in Manchester) brought me here. I'm glad I followed the recommendation of my friend, and hence found this gem! Being a Chinese, I, however, find myself particularly attracted to British music in general.
a song like a bomb! i can´t stop control my dancing mood. Cheers guys and sotify that brought me here.
Tune!
Love it ❤️
You got me hooked! Great new sound... exactly what I look for!
Good Music !
What a song! Would love to know the lyrics to this so I can chant along!
Gordon Curran they’re in the description! :D
@@FHughes2008 Good to see. Got them off the vinyl too.
Excellent, j'adore !
Tour date in France ?
Channelling David Byrne here - love it!
Good, but it bites a liiiittle hard on "Brains" by Lower Dens, doesn't it?
I dont mean this in a mean way, but how do those two songs sound similar to you?
Im a music student so it would be interesting to hear your thoughts.
