lyrics

No one Listens to Music Any More

David Jones got into a fight
Changed the colour of his eyes
Muddy Waters record in his head, David Bomberg on his mind
Smoked a Lucky on the Victoria line
Those English fags are just uncouthed
Strutted down to Dobell’s American Import section
Died and went to heaven in the listening booth

But no one listens to music anymore
No one listens to music anymore

Ivan Morrison put on the radio and watched it warm up
Tuned it in to Luxemburg
Lonnie Donegan was on the Rock Island Line
Huddie Leadbetter was what he heard
In the distance came a marching band
It made a glorious sound
Then the boy picked up his guitar, and never put it down

No one listens to music, no one listens to music anymore

We've fallen out of love with the world
All the ravens have left the tower
They still call it rock and roll
But it doesn't have the power
When King Curtis blew a Whiter Shade of Pale
It sent us crashing through the floor

But no one listens to music anymore

When Johnny Thunders kicked it, when Poison Ivy licked it
When Bo Diddley was the law

But no one listens to music anymore

David Jones got into a fight
Changed the colour of his eyes
And all the monsters in his head began to synthesise
Sitting safe in Soho, keeping out of the rain
Don't you love this English weather?
Wrote a song got it wrong
Screwed it up, tore it up then
Stuck it back together

No one listens to music, no one listens to music
No one listens to music anymore

We've fallen out of love with the world
All the ravens have left the tower
And every protest singer sounds like they just came down with the last shower
When Lou Reed sang I’m Waiting for My Man
Everybody knew the score

But no one listens to music, no one listens to music
No one listens to music anymore
No one listens to music, no one listens to music
No one listens to music anymore
